Why is it that the UK has lost its power to the point that it's now not as influential as Germany?

the sun set but will rise again

Why japanese are austistically weird ?

Cause america was able to flex it's imperialistic muscles more heavily without fear of suspicion or retaliation in west germany and after the fall.

We just can't compete

that's just a rumor

What do you mean rumor?
America saved germany and made it a power in europe again, how is that disputable?

Large segments of the UK's population were transferred to its colonies, giving Germany a population advantage over the UK itself. If you combined Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK, you would see that we're far more powerful than Germany or any other European country. Add the rest of the Commonwealth Realms we have direct authority over and it's even more stark.

Merely Jewish lies. We are a good small colony that dindu nuffin.

>If you combined Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK
the eternal coalition """winner"""

pls invite to commonwealth

Why do you love the UK so much?

Why did you make us give you all our gold and sign the Atlantic Charter basically admitting we'd have to break up our Empire after WW2, and then not even enter the war then?

But the UK by itself is more powerful and richer than France, even though France has retained some of its colonies under direct control.
>really made me think

Americans will never accept being under a royal family though, at best you'll be some half-hearted 'associate member' to keep you happy.

>there are people on Sup Forums who still reply to this spammer OP

Perhaps you should have made a colony that wasn't Haiti-tier.

>more powerful
with your ramp ?
>richer
you beat us on gdp only 2 years ago, while we were richer since ww2

french Haiti part is good, it's the anglo'd part that is shit, i wonder why.

What the fuck are you talking about, none of Haiti is good, fuck off.

> Anglo part of Haiti
What?

you have always had a larger population than us

us beating you in GDP is pathetic on your part

your carrier being nuclear also means its fucking useless since you guys have to keep it in port for maintenance 24/7

you have some stuff to read you memester

maybe if you didn' count drugs purchases and hoes in your gdp it would be otherwise, you also beat us 2 yo because of pound exchange rate vs euro

btw Haiti is an island cut in 2, the french part (République dominicaine) is good, and the one influenced by anglo culture is shit

Yes mate, everything's a conspiracy to keep the Frenchman down. France stronk.

i got facts you got memes and stereotypes

hahahaha

jesus frogs are pathetic

hahahaha

jesus anglos are pathetic

they are throwing stuff in broken french from their rainy island wishing one day to beat us fair and square

There are a lot of German Americans aswell, you know?

>imperial
We didn't annex shit after the Philippines, which was over a century ago.

We provided military and political assistance to the UK in exchange for decolonization, whether it meant Nigeria or the Suez Canal. They didn't have to take our offer. They did. Deal with it roofucker.

The USA has consistently been an anti-colonial power since our founding. As soon as we built a navy, we enacted the Monroe Doctrine. We stayed out of your world war 2, only joining it after Japan attacked us. And in exchange for providing military assistance to you, defending our age-old enemy Britain against the Nazis, you decolonized.

You didn't need to ask for our help. We could have attacked Japan and wrapped it up, ignored the nazis, and gone back to our lives. But we didn't because you thought that decolonization was a worthy trade for, you know, not being invaded by the nazis.

Ultimately it rests on your shoulders.

Nobody identifies with Germany anymore, not after two world wars in which we landed on opposing sides. The German language was quite common until 1914 in the USA and then it immediately disappeared. That being said, "America First" and other WW2-era organizations were popular in areas primarily settled by Germans, but it didn't matter shit when your ally Japan attacked us.

-t. American with a German surname

>fight two wars against britan on american soil
>still love brits
>"fight" two wars far away from home in germany
>"we are not germans anymore"
Why do Americans hate us so much ;_;

>American Revolution
>6800 dead

>War of 1812
>15,000 dead

>World War 1
>53,000 dead

>World War 2
>416,000 dead

So a much higer percentage of population died in wars against Britain

u-s-history.com/pages/h980.html

Assuming this is vaguely accurate, which before 1900 probably isn't due to the census:

>1790 - 3.9 million. 6800 is 0.1% on the home front.

>1810 - 7.2 million. 15,000 is 0.2% on the home front.

>1910 - 92 million. 53,000 is 0.06% on a foreign front.

>1940 - 142 million. 0.3% on a foreign front.

Ultimately WW2 killed the most of us percentage-wise, which was a war we wouldn't have even entered if Japan had not attacked us like idiots. All for nothing

And I would argue that the overwhelming majority of Americans died fighting in Asia and not in Europe

They don't hate us tho. They just don't love us.

An empire so spread was bound to be lost to regionalism, Germany has a bigger core land/folk and is better situated in Europe.
The failure of Russia to retain control of slavic Europe is more interesting and unnatural.

>Why did you make us give you all our gold
Because, as we learned post-WW1, lending money to Europeans is a good way to not get paid back. We hedged our bets and took some payment in advance.
