Come on, be fair.
We always did the honourable thing and outright invaded. Or we used the Eddie Izzard approach: "Do you have a flag? No? Oh what a shame. No flag, no country!"
But seriously, I would be up for a debate on the history of British Imperialism. It just wouldn't be as relevant to current politics, given that the only thing Britain can throw its weight around over are a few rocks scattered around the world's oceans.
Whereas American imperialism is alive and well and (if many in Washington get their way) on the rise!
