    It is tragic, that people with high IQ do not know the difference
    between the simple words, and educated historians do not know
    the meaningness and relevantness of things, especialy, if they're
    from abrahamic religious communities living in traditional countries.
    Four good reasons to be ashamed.

    I opened this thread as informative Historical thread about what British were in History, for all those who thinks that Nazis were greatest monsters ever (Nazis were monsters, but they're were "kitties" for British Empire), or Mongol Empire, Ottoman Empire etc..., all those Empires had millions of ppl killed, but none of them rivals the British Empire, The British Empire - The most Evil Empire this world has ever seen.



    So let's write some FACTS, Historical facts about British Empire and what has that Empire done to this world;


    1. The British Empire caused as many as 150 million deaths across Asia, Africa and Europe. I repeat; 150 million deaths from 1783 - 1997.



    2. British Imperialists hoarded rice and grain from India, they also dramatically increased harvast taxations, which caused widespread famines that killed 29 million of people.





    3. Without any support from the Empire, Indian civilians were forced to eat grass and human flesh to survive.





    4. Britain also resorted to use of concentration camps to defeat South African's Boer population at the turn of 20th century, 10% of entire Boer population were killed in this camps, including 22 000 children, who were starved and beaten to death, of the 107,000 people interned in the camps, 27,927 Boers died, along with an unknown number of black Africans.




    5. In 1943, up to four million Bengalis starved to death when Winston Churchill diverted food to British soldiers and countries such as Greece while a deadly famine swept through Bengal.



    Talking about the Bengal famine in 1943, Churchill said: “I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion. The famine was their own fault for breeding like rabbits.”

    This is the man who fought against Evil in WW2? Oh how lucky British were that Hitler ever appeared on World scene, to cover up all this crimes against Humanity, which are unparalleled to any other Empire, state or ideology, but this thread is dedicated for the truth, historical truth.

    The British war hero who stood up to the Nazis, may well have starved to death as many innocent people as Stalin did in the Ukrainian genocide. Could the man who held out against Hitler really be capable of such an atrocity? YES!.



    6. One of British most ruthless conquests, however, came in 1800's, when British colonists annihilated Tasmania's indigenous population. They forced Aborigine wives to carry the heads of their dead husbands around their necks.





    7. The Cyprus interment - The big myth of the British Empire is that it nobly withdrew from its colonies when it realized the days of Imperialism were over. Yet one look at Cyprus proves the myth to be just a feel-good fairy tale. Between 1955 and 1959, the British responded to a Cyrpus rebel bombing campaign by rounding up and torturing 3,000 ordinary Cypriots.

    The victims of this internment campaign were often held for years without trial and violently abused for being “suspected” terrorists. Detainees received regular beatings, waterboarding, and summary executions. Children as young as 15 had burning hot peppers rubbed in their eyeballs, while others reported being flogged with whips embedded with shards of iron. Those found guilty of rebel sympathies were relocated to London, where a UK opposition party inspection found inmates with their arms broken and jagged scars running across their necks. In short, it was an appallingly sadistic policy, one that showed the British to be even lower than the terrorists they were meant to be fighting.


    8. Crushing the Iraqi revolution - In 1920, the newly-formed nation of Iraq was tiring of British rule. Charged with guiding the new state towards independence, the Empire had instead installed puppet leaders. turning the place into a de facto colony. Fed up with their imperial overlords, the Iraqis turned to revolution, only for the British to unleash wave after wave of atrocities against them.

    First the RAF conducted nighttime bombing raids on civilian targets. Then they deployed chemical weapons against the fighters, gassing whole groups of them. But the real horrors came in the aftermath, when the victorious British decided to use collective punishment against the offending tribes.



    From that point on, any tribe that caused a fuss would have one of its villages randomly annihilated. Specific orders were given to exterminate every living thing within its walls, from animals to rebels to children. Other villages were subject to random searches. If the British found a single weapon, they would burn the place to the ground, destroy the crops, poison wells, and kill livestock. They’d sometimes target weddings to terrorize the population. In short, the British deliberately targeted civilians in a campaign that lasted the better part of half a decade, all because a few Iraqis had dared to ask for their country back.


    9. Exacerbating The Irish Famine - If you want to see why large parts of Ireland still despise anything remotely British, look no further than the Irish Famine. What started out as an ordinary if brutal famine soon became something more like genocide when London sent the psychopathic Charles Trevelyan to oversee relief work.

    A proud Christian who believed the famine was God’s way of punishing the “lazy” Irish, Trevelyan was also a fierce devotee of Adam Smith. How fierce? Well, he passionately felt that government should never, ever interfere with market forces, to the extent that he refused to hand out food to the starving Irish. Instead, he instituted a public works program that forced dying people into hard labor building pointless roads so they could afford to buy grain. The only problem was he refused to control the price of grain, with the result that it skyrocketed beyond what the road builders could afford. Trevelyan thought this would encourage cheap imports. Instead it led to a million people starving to death.


    10. The Kenyan Camps - In the 1950s, the people of Kenya decided they wanted their nation back. Unfortunately, the people they wanted it back from just happened to be the same guys responsible for every other atrocity on this list. Fearing a countrywide rebellion, the British rounded up 1.5 million people and placed them in concentration camps. What happened in these camps will turn your stomach.



    Under slogans like “labor and freedom” and other variations on ” Arbeit macht frei,” inmates were worked to death as slave labor filling in mass graves. Random executions were not-uncommon and the use of torture was widespread. Men were anally raped with knives. Women had their breasts mutilated and cut off. Eyes were gouged out and ears cut off and skin lacerated with coiled barbed wire. People were castrated with pliers then sodomized by guards. Interrogation involved stuffing a detainee’s mouth with mud and stamping on his throat until he passed out or died. Survivors were sometimes burned alive.




    11. YouGov poll has found the British public are generally proud of the British Empire and its colonial past. YouGov found 44% were proud of Britain's history of colonialism, with 21% regretting it happened and 23% holding neither view.

    The same poll also found 43% believed the British Empire was a good thing, 19% said it was bad and 25% said it was "neither".

    One of the all time greatest posts on TA.

    The British built infrastructure and did a lot of good in many of their colonies. It was not all bad.

    Gandhi was able to go to school in the UK and become a lawyer there was upward mobility for the colonial subjects.

    I like British people and don't hold any grudges but as an Irish person I wish the British stayed out of Ireland. They treated the Irish like shit and today there is still the partition which could cause all sorts of problems with Brexit. Ireland was doing quite nicely by itself without any other interference from outside. There was a thriving Celtic/Christian society and women had much better rights in a Gaelic society.

    Most countries didn't need colonisation. People ignore the original cultures and due to their own viewpoint think some other culture is better.

    That's just my honest opinion but you can't undo the past and people today aren't to blame.

    Portuguese and Spanish never executed policies of mass genocide and systematic extermination of native peoples like the British did.

    And you should know that while in Portuguese African provinces in the middle XX century there was no racial segregation, equality of rights was granted, in British Rodhesia and other British colonies and in the USA there were brutal apartheid regimes.

    You get your facts right, it would help that once in a while you read a book, it's incredible that with the internet people have acess to all the info they need but chose to continue being ignorant and learning history from Holywood movies or redneck blogs.

    Well Albania is the legacy of the Ottoman Empire and has the lowest average IQ in Europe, so in part I agree with you.

    Not true, the British had a higher share on the Atlantic slave trade than the Spanish and the French.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_slave_trade

    Distribution of slaves (1519–1867)[102]
    Destination Percentage
    Portuguese America 38.5%
    British America (minus North America) 18.4%
    Spanish Empire 17.5%
    French Americas 13.6%
    British North America 6.45%
    English Americas 3.25%
    Dutch West Indies 2.0%
    Danish West Indies 0.3%

    My little contribution to this great thread:

    Specially you, Lily.

    1) You British have annihilated until the exctintion to bears, wolfs and lynx in UK... and still do you dare to talk about bullfighting, assholes??

    Damn, you even pretend to introduce our Iberian linx there (I hope this will not happen, you would finish killing all of them)

    Interest in reintroducing the species was further bolstered in 2016 in relation to a successful breeding programme for the Iberian lynx in Spain.
    http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-35890789

    No comment about your famous fox hunting.

    2) You British have had the most bloody Inquisition of all. In the centuries XVI and XVII with John Knox or Oliver Cromwell, plus Henry VIII or his daughter Elisabeth I the massacres of Catholic and Irish are one of the most infamous events ever.

    Only in the five years of reign of Mary I (1553-1558), there were the triple of executed people for religiosus crimes (heresy, witchery, etc) than in Spain.

    No comment the chapter of the Salem witch trails in the English colony of Massachussets, etc etc etc etc

    3) British exterminated the entire native population of Tasmania in the so-called Black War

    British almost exterminated the entire native population of USA, and for this British almost exterminated the entire population of American buffalos because they knew it were the main source of food for Indians.

    4) For last, dear Lily, educate a bit yourself. In your fuckin life tell me again something about the Spanish Armada, when in the next year the English Armada suffered highest losses trying to conquer Spain... and not because storms precisely

    NO MORE LESSONS OF ANYTHING, ASSHOLES. THANKS IN ADVANCE
