@hen We have a bigger population, helped English grow even more, better GDP per capita, became independent as a new country against the biggest superpower of the time, so on and so forth. The UK is really no more special than France, Germany, or Spain. |

| Plus, even if you guys did have a large empire, you still gave countries horrendous flags. Stupid Union Jack on the top left corner with an ugly emblem thingy, stars, or ugly patterns on the center. |

| Actually, the UK didn't even make it to the top ten countries with the highest quality of life, according to the UN. I think it may have to do with more poverty in the UK compared to the rest of Europe.. |

| Our flag is actually all of the UK's flags joined together. A cross on the flag represents that most of our country is meant to be Christian to what I've heard. |

UK is by far superior to countries like Spain and France.
Just look at their navy, heck they can send a naval attack all the way to China. |

| Tenal, your a Brit Hater! We had a large Empire that crumbled after the Second World War. That was Colonial Times and we have moved on.Was your country invaded by Romans,Anglo-Saxons,Vikings,Normans and bombarded by Germany?! Well we did and we survived it! We created the Industrial Revolution which gave into steam power for Trains and that is why we have trains! Thank us for English as we were invaded by Anglo Saxons and Normans and Vikings and Romans which their words gave the way for the English language! At the end of the Second World War,we were a broken,bankrupt country. |

England wasn't attacked by the Romans, it wasn't called England at the time.
If you look at it that way I can say that Lebanon was attacked by the Babylonians, Assyrians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Ottomans, French, Syrians, Israelis, and Americans.....and we survived it all, but most of that is inaccurate, it's the land that was attacked not the country. |

| I know that, but the Romans did invade Britain. You can find evidence via archaeology. |

Okay fine they invaded Britain, they Also Invaded just about everything between Spain and Turkey.
Also Britain collapsed into a dark age after the withdrawal of the Romans, along with the rest of Europe.

| Didn't Anglo-Saxons create the English language, or create a precursor to it? |

"UMAD at out country cus it so good." Tell me one thing you can be proud about that isn't inferior to any other country.
"And to top it up, we FOUNDED your country," You didn't find the government. You colonized it but tried destroying it afterwards.
"You wouldn't really exist for a few more centries if it wasn't for us" We won the war of independence
"We had a large Empire that crumbled after the Second World War. That was Colonial Times and we have moved on." In other words, you lost. Stop being proud of the past.
"Was your country invaded by Romans,Anglo-Saxons,Vikings,Normans and bombarded by Germany?! Well we did and we survived it!" No, but we broke free from your evil empire, destroyed 1940s Germany, the Soviet Union, and we're CURRENTLY the one and only superpower.
"We created the Industrial Revolution which gave into steam power for Trains and that is why we have trains!" In that case, thank the US for thousands if not millions of inventions.
"Thank us for English as we were invaded by Anglo Saxons and Normans and Vikings and Romans which their words gave the way for the English language!" Woo for the easiest, most intuitive, exceptionless languages with SO LITTLE amounts of pronunciations! /s
"At the end of the Second World War,we were a broken,bankrupt country." South Korea was the poorest country after decades of Japanese occupation and war, just 60 years ago. After a dictatorship, it became a democratic republic with the fifteenth largest economy as of today
Japan was the only country to have ever gotten nuked during war and they're the third largest economy.
Germany has had and are currently having a huge burden after German reunification. They're the forth largest economy.
I'll give it to you for being eighth but other countries made miraculous recoveries too.
