Even though the #UnitedKingdom ranks as the world’s sixth-largest #economy and boosts a highly commendable #military force, it grapples with its post-imperial identity.

Great Britain; from an empire where the sun never sets to a soggy little island where the sun rarely shines.
-
A country betrayed by its politicians.

A few outdated facts in this video 1. We didn’t avoid a recession in 2023, we had a mild one over Q3/Q4 2. The Northern Irish executive has now been formed. 3. We were not the worst performing economy in the G7

Half of England is owned by less than 1% of its population, It is impossible to penetrate the secrecy that has traditionally surrounded land ownership. It is “astonishingly unequal”, that about 25,000 landowners – typically members of the aristocracy and associated corporations – have control of half of the country. The common population cannot survive and support growth in those circumstances without the exploitation of colonies. And the colonies are mostly gone. Time to set things right if you want to prosper British commoners. But you can't and you will be the ones to suffer, not the lords.

As a Portuguese living in Britain, what I notice the most is that quite a few British people that live in the UK and that are from the former colonies, tend to have a deep rooted and taught hatred for the country and seem to enjoy the social divide. The other issue is that a lot of these people don't really like each other due to Post Imperial Britain atrocities some nations committed against each other... Both that and religious contempt for one another.

POV: you’re playing EU4 and are England in 1520.

One other important point in Britain's historic power - the population boom following industrialisation that led to British culture, technology and the English language to all corners of the globe and creating new societies like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and even arguably Singapore

Every country, every region inevitably experience an ebb and flow of greatness and obscurity, and it should teach us that there is always a large range of factors that determine who has their place in the sun. At the zenith of the british empire, people would talk about the perceived superiority of british genes and culture, not knowing that superpower status would be lost in a few generations.
-
As a Brit it is increasingly clear that we need to modernise, or we will be permanently left behind. Out cities (outside of London) have poor infrastructure and awful public transport compared to the UK. We are trying American strategies for growth without the geographical advantages that the US has.
-
the way we've fallen behind in the last 10 years needs to be studied Edit: Yes you can dispute the time period of which we've dropped off blah blah blah, i just meant this specific period has been a real missed opportunity
-
It’s crazy that such a small island nation was once the greatest empire in the history of humanity. They will be telling stories about them for thousands of years to come
-
As someone who closely follows UK politics, I have to say this feels quite out of date. The SNP is losing support and is likely to lose a lot of seats to Labour at the next election. This will likely end the Scottish independence debate for a long time. Additionally, Brexit has been and gone, it won’t be part of the upcoming election campaign with both main parties wanting to move beyond it. The chances of the UK breaking into separate nations is very unlikely.

UPDATE: The UK did in fact not avoid a recession in 2023.
-
As a former empire myself, this really speaks to me
-
As an Austrian I can assure you Britain is not the worst performing G7 country, that price goes to Germany.
-
NOTHING Lasts Forever.... So 🤷♂ Time we Brits started to learn the Art of Humility Once Again... Oh and don't worry! Our American allies will also learn this lesson soon enough!!!

Britain also lost WW2 when you look at the economy. It was just too expensive and they couldnt hold their empire. The USA succeeded it. Some people still think of the old glory and power but britain now is only a shadow of itself.
