My country was built on the oppression of natives, built by the imprisonment of Irish convicts to the benefit of British lords. We moved passed that a long time ago, when we stopped remembering what it was we all stood for. For peace? for progress? for what?
We lost our identity a long time ago in the search for it, now, we're 5 states and two territories wondering where we all fit in the globalised world, asking where our fragile culture went to, wondering if it were just easier to be a 51st state than under the Queen's dominion.

Our country (Finland) fought for their independency from Russia 1917, we again defended our country against them in the wars in 40's.
I have faith this is still in short memory of our government for not to lose our national identity yet.
