America and the Second Cold War

Never mind the fact that the Soviet Union recognized Israel almost a year before the United States did.

USSR recognition of Israel: 17 May 1948
US Recognition of Israel: 31 January 1949

Yes they were ahead of Britain, but not the British Empire. Also who had the world's reserve currency at this time?

The German army was very very good yes, the best in the world at the time. However the British were able to defeat it outside Europe within a year and held there own in Europe, with help from the French and Russian empire and so on.

Yes British politicians at this time weren't very good compared to what had gone before.

Just look at what clothes everybody was wearing and you will see they are British. That is cultural power.

Britain defeat both the India and Chinese empires.

So Greece, Rome, Persia, India, China, Mongals, Spain, Britain and the US anyone of them were as powerful as each other in their day?

South Africa was a great country until Nelson left of office, now the ANC have wrecked it.

I can remember the Russian empire was second or third. Britain first though.

Yes but nobody really cares about the stuff east of Ural's in the Arctic area.

How I wish the British were the major naval power in Europe again and didn't need American help to do anything.

We had 16, but Gordon Brown sold 3 to Chile and we only have 13. There replacement the Type 26 has a land-attack capability, much more armament. However I fear this could effective it's main role of ASW, hunting those Russian submarines. We really need atleast 24 frigates since we only got 6 Type 45's and no cruisers. We should also use 12 Black Swan corvettes and a couple fast helicopter destroyers. Our carriers are crap aswell. Still it's fine the Danish, Germans, Norwegians and Dutch haven't just build new frigates and destroyers and the Russian aren't updating their fleet it's all good no threats at all.

 

Why does it matters? And what you have proved with it? Looks like nothing for me.

I am sure they were ahead of British Empire too.

It doesn't matters. European theater was the main one.

So...clothers you wear..is a cultural power? Funny.

In what century exactly? I was talking about ancient times.

Basically yes.

No, it was screwed from the day one. They used to have aparteid, and when they've abolished it, blacks simply pushed whites& indians out of several major cities, like Johannesburg. And now it is one of the worst (*)(*)(*)(*)holes ever known. So it was terrible and it remains terrible now.
Don't you know, how District №9 was filmed? Those people which are interviewed in the film were interviewed in real life. They only was asked about newcoming blacks instead of the aliens.
The film is one big social parody.

Nobody cares about world's biggest treasury. Okay. Got it, Einshtein.
