Former superpower thread

This is a thread if your people once projected their will around the world

Invited: People loyal to what was once the British (Commonwealth) and Soviet Empires (Russia, 13% of Ukraine)

Not invited: Current superpowers (US) and salty subjugates (India, Poland)

To old glories!

They may have lost the propaganda war, but they won the big one.

I currently belong to the superpower of the UN.

The british were once loyal to us, are we invited?

Upon which the sun never sets

You also belonged to the Spanish Emperor as a Kingdom Seat.

...

Before we kicked them out and started for ourselves

CURRENT SUPER POWERS GET OUT

REEEEEEE

dude pls come back

I suffer under nato cocksucking regime

and those horrible steam overpriced shit prices!

C-can we join?
For a few years we were a superpower, if not the strongest force on earth... ;_;

man if ussr return there will be no steam in Poland. Btw what prices?

No, (you) Germans don't exist anymore, you're a world republic.

>To old glories!

This is a depressing idea for a thread. Why not future glories? It's a bit unhealthy to live in the past is it not?

what's the point of this thread
you can't miss what you never had, brits today never grew up under the empire fampie

Superpowers out

USA doesn't exist, I would die before being a shitinmart.

>No, (you) Germans don't exist anymore
Well, I do exist.

Oh right this is a thinly disguised take the piss out of Britain thread >_>

Whatever tickles your pickle

your state is not a state of You though.

How is it LESS depressing to think about a scant few years of American rule followed by the rise of the fucking Chinese?

Salty neo-lib Londoners uninvited

C-can I join guys?

16/17th century superpower reporting in

So basically >wewuz the thread?
I'm fine with this.

I don't think China will take over

I think you got your replies mixed up

>How is it LESS depressing to think about a scant few years of American rule followed by the rise of the fucking Chinese?
Because if you think the Chinese are going to replace the US and become the sole superpower you're pretty dumb

We're shifting from a uni-polar to multi-polar system which means more opportunities for countries like the UK than the post-WW2 (two superpowers) or post Cold War (one superpower) periods

How do you get off on the past anyway? That's just sad. Be proud of the past for sure but saying shit like "to old glories!" is fucking cringeworthy. If you only think your country was worth something in the past then it may as well not exist.

>trade empire
lol

This map doesn't include Svalbard, we had Svalbard too.

>Svalbard

This is based on a myth though.

Anglo detected

Throughout history, relations between the two nations (France and Uk) have often been rather bellicose and, therefore, profoundly marked the history of Europe and the world.

From reddit:
>Actually, there was some interesting discussion on this subreddit and on wikipedia last time this $7.4 trillion valuation came up. The source turns out to be an incorrect calculation from an article in The Atlantic. The author took the price of a VOC stock certificate sold at auction (as a historical collector's item, see her citation) as the equivalent modern-day stock value and multiplied this by the original number of shares issued. This is, of course, not the right way to compute the historical net worth of the VOC in 21st century dollars. I'm not sure what the Dutch East India company's actual value was in today's money (or how you could even compute that accurately), but I do know that $7.4 trillion is wrong.

The Dutch are quite literally the most pathetic posters on Sup Forums. Not a single other flag craves for attention and compliments as much as you lads. It's embarrassing. Why do you want everybody to acknowledge you?

Brazil is future superpower.

lol

>From reddit:
why did you even try

Prove it.

>I had the same question you did, so I looked around to see if I could figure out the present-day value of the Dutch guilder between 1600-1800 when the Dutch East India Company was in business. I found this site which has a conversion calculator that seems to be based on reliable secondary sources. Unfortunately, it converts guilders to 2013 Euros, so I used 1 EUR ~ 1.3 USD to convert to 2013 dollars.
>I found that 1 fl. (1600) = 14.77 EUR (2013) = $19.20 USD (2013) and that 1 fl. (1800) = 6.95 EUR (2013) = $9.04 USD (2013). So the guilders used in the valuation of the Dutch East India Company would have a value in the range $9 - $20 USD. If the total value of the Company was 78 million guilders, then its value in today's dollars would be somewhere between $700 million and $1.6 billion, which is many orders of magnitude from the given valuation.
Because the Dutch are arrogant cunts (even though apparently their culture looks down on boasting, which is nonsense because that's all they do) and they keep mentioning this obviously and hilariously false factoid. I don't understand how anybody with multiple brain cells would seriously buy the $78 trillion crap. It makes no sense at all, it's blatantly wrong.

>Because the Dutch are arrogant cunts
t. anglo

>t-the VoC was worth six gorillian euros g-guys!

>they keep mentioning this obviously and hilariously false factoid
I've literally never heard it before
Also, tldr
Try being less autistic

sounds to me you're a little jealous

Someone seems a little upset.

>I keep maintaining it was worth six hundred zillion borillion dollaroos in the face of facts

Utterly embarrassing.

does it make you feel upset

These are levels of buttblastedness I've never seen before.
Tell me, why does it make you feel angry?

Let's stop feeding him (you)s lads

we were once

Fifth Anglo-Dutch War

Date: 25 August 2016 – 25 August 2016 (1 day)
Location: Sup Forums.org/int/
Result: Decisive Dutch victory
Territorial changes: British autist gets his ass to bed.

>Carthaginian empire
>superpower

A regional power. At best.

so salty

mediterranean see was the whole world at that time ( cultural-economic influence)

and guess who had it

Carthage never had power over the entire Med + you're false, there were powerful empires in Persia and China for one.

practically live on the border

800 years later

Are you gonna claim you're Roman too? Wouldn't surprise me from a Dutch "person".

ohh la france

>hes still here

...

that's the arabian empire

What do you mean the Soviets are former superpowers? They simply changed to Russia but they are clearly here.

Their subversion work is literally completely destroying the west as we speak, including your country and latin amarica, through Social Marxism and Equality.

>youtube.com/watch?v=5gnpCqsXE8g

It wont take more than 10-20 years for every country in the west to fall to a completely mess of civilizations without standards and power.

This will be their cue, together with the Chinese (but not as allies) to rise and become the sole super powers.

If that's a pic of all Caliphates overlapped, then you should at least add Sicily and Crete. Hell, you could decide to add the Ottoman territory too.

Boss in da place

Fixed your map fucking moor.

Some still are loyal to the queen, the best ones.

Yes...the best...
