Why did Britain have a more successful colonial empire than France?

It was France's turn! Brits made a pact with the devil in order to conquer the world.

>have
Not "had"?

That's not how English grammar works, Ivan.

History shows that the more ruthless, bloodthirsty, and willing-to-cheat usually come out on top. France created its empire in am earnest kind-hearted attempt to better the world.

You have a terrible grasp on the English language Sergei

thats not the picture I chose wtf the filename is the same though and theres only 9 pictures in the folder and thats not one of them

Cyka.

British culture breeds successful environment economically because they all operate under rule of law

Because there are very few frenchmen willing to leave such a perfect country.
To have a successful colonial empire you need to have citizens craving to leave their shithole.

france tried to spread liberty, equality, and fraternity to all of mankind

Paid countries to fight us in the Coalition Wars. After that, we were unstable enough for them to prevail, and they did.

This is both a curse and a blessing

It's okay lad. "Why did Britain had" would be grammatically incorrect because it is a question. If it were "Britain had a more successful... ", it would be correct.

Thank you, Lloyd.
Much appreciated.

The French were busy conquering german territories. Everything else was of secondary importance to them.

Actually we do not care about germans
Only about brits
But we'll never try to conquer their lands
Because they're haunted or some shit

Because we are naturally superior.

>“Which leads me to add one Remark: That the Number of purely white People in the World is proportionably very small. All Africa is black or tawny. Asia chiefly tawny. America (exclusive of the new Comers) wholly so. And in Europe, the Spaniards, Italians, French, Russians and Swedes, are generally of what we call a swarthy Complexion; as are the Germans also, the Saxons only excepted, who with the English, make the principal Body of White People on the Face of the Earth. I could wish their Numbers were increased.”

You're just salty because you know it's true.

Brits were more desperate to get out of their grey depressing shithole
This applies to Spen too

Explains a lot

Good old Ben. Shame such a clever man fell victim to the whiggish curse.
