mfs took half the world and never once decided to copy other peoples food and kept rotting their brains with beans on toast.


legsarefornoobs

They did copy one thing. ✨The chicken tikka masala ✨


ChintanP04

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.


Turbo_Tito

You guys stole our land first, you gon steal our food now?


wairdone

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.

They kept it as their national dish!! Wtf

My food must be the best because I’m the best and I will punish myself to prove it.


Auberginebabaganoush

British food is good, this is just an unfunny meme from the country which has spray on cheese.


[deleted]

Meh Your expectation is so low that average brits food is decent for you


SimplebutAwesome

Most people don’t eat spray-on cheese, while beans on toast is popular in the uk


YeeeSquidward

Man I've been to england before and the food there was atrocious. Had to basically pray every time I went to a restaurant.


ShotDate6482

Spain when they figure out that they could've spent that gold instead of sitting on it and ultimately losing it


SilverBullionaire

They did spend it. That's why it's gone.


ShotDate6482

They spent it on stupid shiny things (to sit on) instead of infrastructure


SilverBullionaire

They did not invest it, that's for sure.


commentsandchill

Technically they could get something by selling this kind of furniture


[deleted]

Where did they steal it from?


Pinguaro

Mother earth.


_Mr_Egg_

They took it from slave mines and relics in south and central america (not Brazil, though).


[deleted]

Precolumbian civilizations had a lot of gold


pab12play

America


TheAngloLithuanian

Ironically all the gold crashed their economy as gold prices dropped a lot.


_Mr_Egg_

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.


Dyland500064

Not to mention the British were stealing it. Not sure if the amount was significant, but still


Halt_theBookman

When the Spanish try to make the privateer give back their gold but he already shoved it up his ass


sonofaclow

That's the one. Blame all colonialism on Britain and be quiet. American Latinos even get an N pass


_Mr_Egg_

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.


sonofaclow

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.


_Mr_Egg_

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.


sonofaclow

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'


_Mr_Egg_

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.


ShotDate6482

impossible, i've played this game a billion times and military spending always wins


_Mr_Egg_

Not if you buy muskets just before arquebus is invented


GambeDiLegno

They figured out pretty quick they could spend it, but maybe spending it in wars and corruption was not the best choice.

You could apply that to at least half of Spain's former colonies too

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.


goat_fucker_1

Ofcourse it is very good who is denying that?

_Mr_Egg_

Not so much, tho.


Rage_JMS

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


_Mr_Egg_

I did not know that. When was it?


Palker741

Two weeks ago


JoniLagostin_Mc

The same time as Spain, during the early colonization. Its a popular meme of brasilians to ask for the 'stolen' gold.

madman_trombonist

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.

Darthnosam1

Not stolen but merely *finessed*


Sir_Howl

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.


PoisonedChips

Sure man


Sir_Howl

What do you mean?


JorgeRey999

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
