British ancestors are really the most adventurous and the most ambitious I wonder how a nation of less than 70m people where able to conquer and colonize half of this world.

Aptly said. Sometimes I wonder if the black race are as intellectually gifted as the whites.
Some analysis need to be done to verify if the blacks are indeed an inferior species.



Once done, although true to the research that will be found, will spark a lot between the white and the black.


That's if they have not carried out the research amongst themselves (white).

The World's newest Republic

The Queen was represented by her son, Prince Charles who is seen as the future head of the Commonwealth of Nations.

I find her interviews captivating. Impressive voice and demeanor.

Don't know the new president though. So in these cases where there's both a president and PM, who holds the most power - like in Ethiopia and India? Seems like the presidents are more ceremonial in the case of these two countries.

Charles is gonna be a very old 'new' king grin

BREAKING: Barbados has officially ousted the British queen and has inaugurated its first ever President - now officially the republic of Barbados.

Mee:

The refreshing good news this morning. After 55 years of independence from the evil British colonialism, Barbados has dumped the mother of Western hegemony - The woman that has stolen African and Indian gold and diamond on her crown.

It is important to note that Barbados was one of the most ruthless slave plantation in the world. No where in the world were Black slaves from Africa dehumanized like Barbados.

I once got a Book on the Black slaves in Barbados. I read less than 10 pages of that Book & dropped the Book due to the extreme barbarism of how slaves were treated by the British colonialists.

With the disappointing run of form of our Politicians since independence, do you think that British rule over Nigeria up to the 1990s would have been better for Nigeria? Me, I think so. The incompetence of Nigerian leaders sometimes made me regret the independence of Nigeria at that early stage. I believe that continuous British rule up till the 90s would have been more impactful than this appalling performance from our leaders.

No Independence.

They just have a Black President.

Britain will still be calling the shots.

Anglophones and Francophones are still answerable to England and France respectively. That's why Nigerian Presidential hopefuls are quick to run to Chatham House to solicit support while Francophones in Africa still have France printing and controlling their currency.

That's why they were called The Great Britain!! conqueror of many island and countries in the world. Towards the advent of Industrial Revolution the Europeans countries need massive resources and cheap labour to start developing their countries. So, they thought they couldn't be the only one living on this planet. They started embarking on a different exploration voyage around the world to discovered so many island and countries, meeting the natives. Most of these journey were successfully finance by their monarchical system of government something black people will failed to do because we don't like investing on something we would not see immediate result. During this period, explorer jobs was like HOT cake job just like working in an oil company this days. Many whites were willing to take the job to travel on a very long distance on a ship for years on the Atlantic ocean looking for colonies because of the huge amount pay they will got and the total respect they will earn. They had with them so many men of different fields and profession such as doctors, mathematician, engineers, map readers and interpreter, soldiers, nurses, captains, naval officers, cooks, e.t.c. Although, during these their voyage on Atlantic ocean, hundreds of these men died before reaching the chores of Africa due to unfavorable weather condition at sea not only that some contacted disease immediately they land on African soil for the first time but does not discouraged them from discovering many nation and achieving their aims and objective to colonized Africa, shipped so many African people and it's resources for approximately more than 400 years. This European white people are just too adventurous and fully well determined to enslaved more than half of the world.
After discovering the importance and riches gaining from stealing African resources and enslaving African countries, this moved many rich whites especially from the royal families and some well to do people among them to began the slave trade business and this gave colonization of Africa more widely, recognition, popularity, support to finance more exploration of many undiscovered countries just to shipped in millions of Africa to Europe and America. The white can't do all these alone so they need some natives to help them with language interpretations for easy business transactions, deals, to sign treaties and agreement with traditional African Kings. They had taken and selected some blacks men for that job after their first successfully voyage on African soil.
This trans Atlantic Slave trade exit between 15th century to 19th century. The majority of those who were enslaved and transported in the transatlantic slave trade were people from Central and west Africa that had been sold by other West Africans to Western European slave traders while others had been captured directly by the slave traders in coastal raids. Europeans gathered and imprisoned the enslaved at forts on the African coast and then brought them to the America and Europe. What also made the European slave traders to be successful in their business was that Africans Kings of the majority tribes were waging war against the minority tribes over supremacy. victims of war were sold to slavery, some corrupt and greedy African wealthy people formed alliance with the European slave traders in exchange of goodies to raid other Africans minority tribes just to sold them as slaves. Although, we still had few African Kings who fought and fought to fight the European slave traders from enslaving them but unfortunately, they were defeated due to European sophisticated military weapons even as at that time. So definitely, all of them including the King himself and his entire family be will sold to slavery. Such as we have in Nigeria King Jaja of Opobo and some Kings in Western/Eastern Africa countries.
Any African King who tried to resist against the European slave traders were forcefully removed from the throne by forming a rebellion with others African tribes who had seen favour of the whites

Canada should follow next. I don't know why a big country like that would be under the hegemony of Great Britain and exercising political suzerainty over their affairs.
Canada should declare full autonomy biko.

Antigua and Barbuda, Australia, The Bahamas, Belize, Canada, Grenada, Jamaica, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, and the United Kingdom.


The last time the Queen was removed as Head of State was in 1992 in Mauritius, however, other Carribean nations will be in close watch.

Jamaica PM, Andrew Holness has confirmed it will begin to seek review of its Constitution by 2022. This is expected to signal a start to the process of making the Country a Republic.

it has nothing to do with been "the most adventurous and the most ambitious" but savagery and terrorism.... don't ever in your life call terrorism and savagery as adventure and ambition.. Just because they are m:uslims does not mean they are terrorists and savages....

you said "I wonder how a nation of less than 70m people where able to conquer and colonize half of this world."..

the answer is simple using yourself and your family as example, Do you own w:eapons? Do any of your family members own w:eapons?

If your answer is no then it means you're a peaceful person and your family is a peaceful family...

Now imagine a group of savages and terrorists that you call "adventurous and ambitious" invading your peaceful house and your peaceful family in order to steal, kill, rape and pillage you and your family and take over your lands and your wealth and tell me if you and your family members will win such a battle
