Exactly. Looking at the history of colonialism I’d rather my country be taken over by the British than others. I met a guy from Nigeria once and he had British citizenship through his parents because before British gave Nigeria its independence they offered citizenship to those who wanted it. He had nothing but good things to say about England. Now I’m sure it wasn’t all sunshine and roses but forgive me if I don’t take seriously any European history told today by self hating leftists or minority activists who are millionaires
If you want an example of how British rule helped 'save' a people, look at Somalia
This video breaks it down but the northern region (now called Somaliland) was once ruled by the British but they left the tribes to rule most of the area, only enforcing control over the port areas, compared to Italy that enforced top down control.
Decades later after a massive civil war, the British decision saved Somaliland as they still had the tribal structure so had elders with respect that called for peace and were listened to. Compared to the rest of Somalia that is mad max without the cool vehicles.
