As reddit as it sounds, I just have to say I reckon the UK-France relationship is the most fascinating and best in the history of two countries. You were eternal enemies for about 800 years then when the 20th century arrived, your interests aligned and became allies for two of the most brutal wars in history. The banter today between you two is tops as well.
I dunno it just makes me happy.

But m8, we keked your 'language' so hard, now, your vocabulary is something like 30 or 40% French
>>52122116
>>52122146
Colonialism was good for a lot of people, I think lots of things been better if you'd stuck around for a little bit longer as a result of
More people being taught by British schoolmasters and nuns
Public service workers (Police, Army etc) trained by British management
More infrastructure
It's hard for me to say India has gotten better since the British have left and I say this with a heavy heart because freedom is such a basic human right. The poor and unrepresented are still poor and unrepresented, Agricultural workers are still be exploited. We might have a little bit more self respect but what does it matter?

It's useful actually because I can understand a good chunk of most romance languages without studying them.

Stop being such a massive c.uck, I'm no leftist but thinking the British did anything for the benefit of India is laughable. We conquered you because we wanted your shit and then we ran out of money and you told us to fuck off. I don't mind the British Empire because it benefited me but an Indian supporting it is just beta as fuck, have some fucking self respect panjeet.

I have no problem with people saying that colonialism is justifiable based on might making right and all that, whatever. But claiming that the British Empire helped any non-white people in the long run is completely delusional. We acted completely in our own self interest, fucking sick of the "WE WAS NICE WE BUILT YOUR TRAINS AND SHIT" nonsense.

French food only got it's reputation because the french revolution left the nobility's personal chefs unemployed and loads of them opened up restaurants and introduced the middle classes to a level of culinary sophistication that only the nobilty had experienced. Baguettes and Croissants are Austrian, Quiche is German, Foie Gras is Ancient Egyptian, Champagne is English. Traditional French food is onions boiled into mush served with raw onions.
>>52129532

>>52123489

We also helped educate their populace and now look at them, they're shooting rockets into space. We helped them along despite some of the terrible stuff, and I'm glad to see them free knowing that we helped them get to where they are.

Sure
share of world gdp went down from ~24% to ~4%
>inb4 industrialization
India would have industrialized by itself, slower than west of course but much faster than it did under British rule.
Rural population during British rule actually increased. Fucking lmao, that's basically opposite of Industrialization.
Eternal Anglo also destroyed the wootz steel Industry. Read up on wootz steel, it was far superior to what Europeans had been using for 1500 years before industrialization.
>inb4 we gav trainz and shiz
To quench rebellions, and to exploit the natural resources faster. Most Indians weren't even allowed to board the first class compartment.
>inb4 India wouldn't have been one country
yeah I would actually prefer 30 or so Independent nations with hdi ~0.8 rather than one massive shithole.
