Hot.
>>1296221
Lol!

Cousin marriage isn't inbreeding. About 80% of all marriages have been between cousins. You want to see inbreeding look at Egypt from 200 ad to 600. People were just fine with marriage between siblings.

>>1299491
>British "empire"
Colonial empires hardly count.
>>1299524
>Colonial empires don't count
>tfw the British never had a proper European Empire because every time we got involved in Europe we didn't take any land and just liberated the people there like sensible chaps
>>1298909
From what i remember the map counts some raid done by turkish mercenaries on iceland as conquering it.
>>1299532
