Come on Paddy you know your sat on our sea. I know you have missed us for 88 years:) -
You guys realize that America still lives in the past. How many times do you see people talk about Vietnam or the Cold War? I mean, the war in Iraq is the only current thing going on.
England is one of the oldest superpowers still alive and standing. If you don't remember grade 8 history, the settlers from Britain settled in Canada, those people moved on into the United States. Therefore, most of the oldest American familys have roots in Britain. The only difference between Canada and USA, is that the Americans wanted independance from the British.
England is by far one of the most established countries, along with France. They both are the original superpowers. Countries like Russia, America, and Canada are like the second generations. Countries like China and Germany are also like the second/third generations.
I know most players that play Cross Fire have no idea about Grade 10 history [I liked that class because it was about the time where COD World at War was popular] but England was the original super power. After they decided to stop being controlling, and gave countries like Canada, India, and Australia their independance, they basically sent word that they were "retiring" from being a superpower, in a sense. They're still respected. In terms of military, naval, and imperialist levels, Britain set the bar. I'm pretty sure no other country has owned as much land or set up as many colonies than Britain.
I'm Canadian, so call me biased if you will, but my grandparents immigrated here from Asia, so I have no British ties [well, Giggletron is my brother..]
spain and portugal dominated and "discovered the world", they even divided the world in two parts, portugal had the biggest and strongest empire, so the british formed an alliance with us, and it still stands has the oldest alliance in the world -

The Plot Thickens. But the ruling Elite of these countries are inter-twined. Is why one country in the big leagues has covered its back for centuries.
Anyone ever play a board game called "Risk"? -

This will some up most of the people in the UK.
Chav, Yellow Teeth, Frsoty Jacks in the park, Virginity lost at 13, Crach Heads, Kids Mc'ind around corners, Getting Legs, Starting Fights, ****ed, Tramps, Crackheads, 1 complete toss.er in every class room, Alcoholic, Jeremy Kyle. Well that some of it.
Now let me translate words for you, from English to UK.
Hi = ite
Later = bit kid
Alright mate = alright laaaa
Are you starting trouble with me = you want beef
Coming out to do something = wanna get smashed of this 10 bag
Kid looking over at you for 1 secon = he's startin' on us
Nerd = gimp
Believe in god = bible basher
Not that much money = tramp
Person who always stays in = Hermit
That's not all, but I really don't wanna type more.

Being able to be the "Bully in the Playground" is not gonna save the U.S.A. You have 6 wars going on now, your monetry mechanics are being shown for what a Fraud it is. Your debt is out-running what capital you are trying to steal from the last natural sources remaining, and your common people will either realize or regret. -

the US can't even defeat iraq, how would they defeat the british? -

you watch too much media. if you think a shortage of money is going to stop the world powerhouse, you are going to be in for a surprise when they decide to take over your country. they were in debt before, the debt is piling up yet they still plenty of money on military spending. they obviously have an unlimited source borrowing from other countries.the US can't even defeat iraq, how would they defeat the british?
don't be stupid. -

Your ridiculous.
Canada's military is a joke. Smaller than that of an island nation.
So ignorant its hilarious. It almost matchs that of Glen Beck's.
I really don't think you know the extent of the UK's navy. Canada won't even be able to leave their own land to attack their beautiful nation.
Lets just say that Canada will probably dip out and call for America to come to the rescue as usual, just as most European nations. -

hell yeah, this world aint 1 v 1. we are the most respected country on the planet. we got many allies.
but not 'as usual' since canada was clearly the hero of the world wars. we don't need a big army and lots of machines. our troops are #1 and we got the allies. -
Canada is still very close to the Monarchy. The Queen is only on every coin we have and $20 bill.xtrapfever wrote: »hell no. she aint my queen, shes yours. canada is far too advanced for a royalty system.

And the Royal couple just visited Canada for the long weekend.
And it's funny you bring up a war. Because they didn't need to do that at all. Canada was able to become their own country just by asking and going through various meetings. But US being US, is willing to start a fight without even knowing that they probably could have become their own country just by talking rather than rebelling. Not to mention losing many lives. -

You're ridiculous.
Thats exactly what made Japan lose in the war. This concept of the man being stronger than the tools.
Get out and leave. Never speak of things you don't know again. -

they lost because they're little japs that can't fight head on. canada troops fight in all weather conditions, they stomped usa in the past. they dominated ww2. nuff said. -

Did they?
Tell me some battles where they were the pivotal force.
You're oblivious to your stupidity. Japan lost because of two things: Strategy and Resources.
As far as going "Head-on" I think Japan fits that description on every level. They are the first and only nation to attack the USA, their soldiers frequently did banzai and kamakazi attacks, and almost never surrendered. Let us not forget IwoJima where only 2 Japanese were left.
Compare that to Canada's army... and... you don't see as much nationalism. Just get out. Your stupidity isn't even funny. It's disgusting. -

this was exactly what I thought............. in grade 4. im very grateful that I was smart enough to realise that there is more to be taught in canadian schools than just what us canadians did, and for that reason alone, is the reason that most canadians, whether they're 8 or 18, or even 80, are basically brainwashed to believe that canada did such a such a substantial job, and that their efforts basically surpassed every other nations. it is completely false. -

attack head on? hahahaha yeah if you mean while usa was sleeping. rofl sad.
just because canadains aren't suicidal maniacs doesn't mean they aren't patriotic. canadian lives are too precious for suicide. 1 canadian soldier = 3 of any other country.
