40% of the top 10 wealthiest countries are current/former British territories. And that's not including China/Hong Kong which a case could be made for as well.

>40% of the top 10 wealthiest countries So 4 of them?
Nicholas Hernandez

You really underestimate british involvment in every shit that was happening on the planet in the 19th century.
This thread has been colonized and now belongs to the British dominion, you should all be happy to be part of this glorious empire. God save the queen

Jayden Ortiz

Anthony Green
Yeah, you know, it might have something to do with the fact that the Brits did not consider and treat the Chinese as subhumans.
Jaxon Butler

Nathaniel Reed
Well that's because they weren't, china had (relatively) advanced and educated societies and were treated as such (i.e they only killed thousands, took their land and forced them to buy opium) compared to total genocide and colonization. Seems fair to me.
Elijah Brooks
Mfw victim of paki on paki violence.
Evan Gomez
And where do you think they grew that opium and reduced the fertility of the local soil for growing rice and wheat eventually leading to a famine? Also speaking of relatively sophisticated, did you think we were ooga booga spear-throwing savages without written language at the time?
Justin Turner
yea yea in india sure. Excuse for my pre 20th century knowledge isn't the best, but from what I'm aware China compared to india was much wealthier and had many inventions and a high society with fine culture. Correct me if I'm wrong though, of course you aren't African nigger tier but you are inbetween for sure.
Btw you or anyone reading this should feel free to start /3rd/ threads, you seem to have a vested interest in it, plus my internet is going to be unreliable for a while starting tomorrow. 3rd world things.
Hudson Jenkins
Brazil probably has 100000x higher homicide rates, that alone tops every other third world criteria famalam
David Campbell
Yeah, I guess it depends on the metric by which you measure the "third-worldness" of a country. You could be a poor guy forced to eat monkeys in some broke favela or you could be some poor villager who's marriage options are your cousin or your other cousin in Pakistan; but which is more third world is the question.
