We gave the US lots of our secrets, like advanced Radar to

That's nice and all but it was German rocket engineers that put the US
into space. All the Brits knew about rockets was how to duck.

Not true.

We invented a hell of a lot:

A few but not the important stuff. Von Liebig invented Oxo and laid
the foundation for marmite...

I'd say the brain and CT scanners/steam engine/electric
motor/cement/photography/hyperdermic syringe/telephone/lightbulb/vacuum
cleaner/television/hovercraft/carbon fibre/world wide web were pretty
important.


The Most Influential Country In the History of the World:


TWO WORLDS, industrial revolution! Started in England and was the first
country to do so, it was said as a fact that the industrial revolution
made the modern world! With out it you would not have T.V., computers
and trains etc.

Japan did a study in 2010 that concluded with 54% of the worlds most
used inventions was first made in and by a britain (Scotland, ENGLAND,
wales).

With figures going up to 75% inflated with evidence of that Japanese
copping (put as stolen and commercialized too) lots of British
innovation. And America that say? "they invented the light bulb or
photograph"? Which is a lie look it up and Thomas Alva Edison made a
longer lasting bulb not the first light bulb, it was just improved by
him. Also William Henry Fox Talbot and Louis Daguerre was the first to
use photographs (French and British) next they will say they invented
the car and their "American" English first after all with out britain
(including England) America would not have existed.
