There are lands that want to become British-governed again

Then let them join

But only them

Don't force countries to

and i mean that isn't to say the only mechanism by which this is to be done is outright subjugation

And what lands want to be controlled by Britain again, Hong Kong might be a maybe but i can't think of any others

i can lmao

@Death in June How would it be done then?

look at rodiesia

if i spelt it right idk

I guess some parts of Africa might

Maybe

in various ways

Name one

mutually beneficial relationships entered into from a position of dominance, for example

for example????

I don't think that would even be considered Imperialism

the european union would be an example of this, for some of the member states at least, though of course this is assuming that the liberal ideology lying at its foundation is good

Unless you are planning on just slowly leading the country towards Annexation

Any country that wants to be absorbed can apply to be

And it must be agreed to by the peoples of that country

And if they don't want it?

Hands off

so basically the "commonwealth plus" bigger and better

i don't mean to say that imperialism is to only be an affair that is undertaken in this manner

just that it isn't exclusively a matter of completely one sided subjugation

It's not imperialism then really

It's not an empire in that sense

You don't have colonies

So essentially you want to create a real and modern Imperial Federation? @Death in June

You have territories that expressly want to be part of your state.

This is just basic free will at work

puppet states or integrated?

Think falklands

Or Gibraltar

i see

But they must first apply

there's still usually an element of coercion and the relationship still usually leans in the favor of the stronger poer

Turn EU into HRE

And then vote by referendum in favour

would Scotland count or not?
