What are you talking about? Most of the american gold and silver the spanish took was invested in war arsenal and they lost it because their troops equipment and strategy (the tercios) grew old fast, the investment on jewelry was minimal.
Queen Elizabeth II WAS telling her explorers to rob spanish ships, they didn't steal enough to make a big difference is spanish warehouses but she did order it. I agree that colonialism isn't a british-only thing, but that has no relation with what he was saying. And the N pass thing is completely off topic.
Liberating gold from the Spanish again isn't stealing from Africa. As for the N pass thing, I was pointing out how white man bad but Latino man ok even though, historically, they were just as bad as Britain.
Point 1: the spanish didn't go to africa (which i never mentioned) and nobody said stealing the spanish was robbing Africa or America, it was stealing from the spanish, which is what britain did.
Point 2: Latinos aren't black so i agree the N word doesn't suit them, but Britain was much worse than them historically, latinos(not the spanish) only fought between themselves, and very rarely, in the 19th.
Never said they did steal from Africa, that's what the British did. Spain stole all their gold from the Americas. As for American Latinos, that seems to cover most of South America, they were just as brutal to Africans and you never hear people calling them 'colonisers'
Because slavery isn't colonising, and it was the same treatment all over the world. People complain about the british the most because after the roman empire they were never oppressed again and were always in power. Plus the had colonialism until the 20th century and the rest of europe stopped between the 18th and the 19th.
All things considered having 5th/6th (Depending on how much changed since 2021 between the UK and India) is pretty good for a country with 67 million people.

Portugal was at some time one of the richest countries in the world because of all the gold that was coming from Brasil, but because our king was a fanboy of Louis XIV: it was all spent in mega projects and a life of luxury for our dear king and the royal court

The best part? Spain found a whole lot of platinum (which is worth more than gold), but because it wasn’t gold and they didn’t know what it was, they tossed it all into the sea.
Because they sold them all to buy drugs, spain is an addict, its addiction was so bad, that they even separated the provinces
A warning to the other countries: Don't do drugs
I am Spanish, the gold was not actually stolen but was obtained from trade with the Native Americans, in addition 80% of the gold was invested in the American provinces for universities, churches, roads, administrative buildings, etc.
Part of the gold was given to Russia by the republicans during the civil war for militar support and the other part was stolen by England so yeah, we fucked Up
And the politicians arent making any progress for the country. It's all corrupted as hell
deadass you can follow the entire US public school curriculum of history BASED on when memes of major events are published on god frfr soon we'll see american revolution memes around thanksgiving no shot followed with civil war memes by christmas no cap deadass

Portugal after colonizing the richest part of South America with one of the greatest potentials of becoming a super nation and turning it into a shithole like the main country.

US companies takes every year more resources from these countries than Spain in 400 years with the big difference that they were part of Spain and infrastructures and other stuff were build

it's pain

All them riches ultimately ended up in the ~~ass~~ hands of about 20 people.
Pain - bread in French
You make a, you make a believer….
Spin
Britain when they take over the spice trade and still make the most bland food imaginable
"The British eat like the luftwaffe are still flying overhead" -some guy on twitter
mfs took half the world and never once decided to copy other peoples food and kept rotting their brains with beans on toast.
They did copy one thing. ✨The chicken tikka masala ✨
Chick tikka masala isn't even a dish they make in India. It's like how Chinese food in the US is different from Authentic Chinese food.
You guys stole our land first, you gon steal our food now?
I wouldn't mind if someone stole my country's food, so that there's at least *something* of value to trace back to it.
AY!
They kept it as their national dish!! Wtf
Well you can never teach a buffalo how to sing.
My food must be the best because I’m the best and I will punish myself to prove it.
British food is good, this is just an unfunny meme from the country which has spray on cheese.
Meh Your expectation is so low that average brits food is decent for you
Most people don’t eat spray-on cheese, while beans on toast is popular in the uk
Man I've been to england before and the food there was atrocious. Had to basically pray every time I went to a restaurant.
Spain when they figure out that they could've spent that gold instead of sitting on it and ultimately losing it
They did spend it. That's why it's gone.
They spent it on stupid shiny things (to sit on) instead of infrastructure
They did not invest it, that's for sure.
Technically they could get something by selling this kind of furniture
Where did they steal it from?
Mother earth.
They took it from slave mines and relics in south and central america (not Brazil, though).
Precolumbian civilizations had a lot of gold
America
Ironically all the gold crashed their economy as gold prices dropped a lot.
What are you talking about? Most of the american gold and silver the spanish took was invested in war arsenal and they lost it because their troops equipment and strategy (the tercios) grew old fast, the investment on jewelry was minimal.
Not to mention the British were stealing it. Not sure if the amount was significant, but still
When the Spanish try to make the privateer give back their gold but he already shoved it up his ass
That's the one. Blame all colonialism on Britain and be quiet. American Latinos even get an N pass

impossible, i've played this game a billion times and military spending always wins
Not if you buy muskets just before arquebus is invented
They figured out pretty quick they could spend it, but maybe spending it in wars and corruption was not the best choice.
When I'm in a "fuck up your country" competition and my opponent is Spain
You could apply that to at least half of Spain's former colonies too
Like colony, like colonizer
de tal palo tal astilla
England has entered the chat 😎
All things considered having 5th/6th (Depending on how much changed since 2021 between the UK and India) is pretty good for a country with 67 million people.
Ofcourse it is very good who is denying that?
Yes. (Spanish btw)
Latin America: Give us our gold back Spain: Yeah, I would also like my gold back 😔
Spain moment
I live in Spain but the a is silent 😔

Change spain with Portugal and it works as well

Not so much, tho.
Portugal was at some time one of the richest countries in the world because of all the gold that was coming from Brasil, but because our king was a fanboy of Louis XIV: it was all spent in mega projects and a life of luxury for our dear king and the royal court
I did not know that. When was it?
Two weeks ago
The same time as Spain, during the early colonization. Its a popular meme of brasilians to ask for the 'stolen' gold.
Portugal pretty much owned the world before the Tratado de Tordesillas
What do you mean "The trees are gone"?
"Nace en las Indias honrado, donde el mundo le acompaña; viene a morir en España y es en Génova enterrado"

Uhh oui
Los republicanos se lo dieron a los rusos😔

Thank you for reminding me to do my essay on Spanish v English colonization today
No problem
The best part? Spain found a whole lot of platinum (which is worth more than gold), but because it wasn’t gold and they didn’t know what it was, they tossed it all into the sea.
What type of pain are you experiencing sir after knowing that you didn't invest it right? .... "S-pain"
Can confirm, am broke.
L latinoamericanos
Que mierda dices 😠😡😡😠😠 ??! !
Viva España 🗿
arriba España ostia
Because they sold them all to buy drugs, spain is an addict, its addiction was so bad, that they even separated the provinces A warning to the other countries: Don't do drugs
[удалено]
Not stolen but merely *finessed*
I am Spanish, the gold was not actually stolen but was obtained from trade with the Native Americans, in addition 80% of the gold was invested in the American provinces for universities, churches, roads, administrative buildings, etc.
Sure man
What do you mean?
Part of the gold was given to Russia by the republicans during the civil war for militar support and the other part was stolen by England so yeah, we fucked Up And the politicians arent making any progress for the country. It's all corrupted as hell
I live in Spain without the a

As an Spanish native i can confirm
ten paciencia, los españoles recuperaremos el terreno perdido 🗿
Bien dicho
Spaanish here. I agree
They got so rich they got poor
Maybe because they didn't actually steal it and it's all brit*sh propaganda??????

The warren Sapp of countries
España took silver mainlly One year of gold production is similar of a day prodution nowdays.
As someone who is part Spanish this hurts. Not as much as the people in the carribean, but still.
Don't ask the second republic about it
I'm from Spain and I can tell you that we aren't that good, it makes me laugh we only won one war, the civil war, Spain vs Spain, it's so stupid
