I care plenty, given that Canada has, for most of American history, been our gravest threat of land invasion by a competent power

that power in this case being the British Empire

There's a reason War Plan Red focuses so much on taking the place over first and foremost

we are so small, but you still fear us

We did in the 1920's when the British empire was at its zenith

After WWII, though? There's a reason the US and USSR agreed to the idea that the UK should decolonize.

Is there?

Yeah, we both ideologically opposed such monarchial empires, and the US had the added bonus of no longer being threatened by its oldest rival.

My wife was born in Hong Kong

Happiest day of my life

The shot of the British Union Jack being lowered makes for pretty good fapping material tbh

My Nepali Wife was born on British soil

I'd praised the Lord

I thanked God

It was a gift

It was everything

Which bit of British soil, the bit the UK still has or one of the bits the UK lost in or after the Cold War?

She was born in Hong Kong

and the Gurkas

were stationed there

Ah, right

born on British soil

what happens if you were born on the day Britain gave up Hong kong?

would you still have Britain citizenship?

you are Chinese

ahh

The US had this funny instance of a region be under Spanish rule, German rule, Japanese rule, briefly American rule, and then independent all in one lifetime, and then while independent, basically fight the UN tooth and nail to get officially annexed by the US, in 1986

i thought so but just thought id ask too incase there was some weird cases

who cares

if she had not died

she's British

try me

It was hilarious

I asked her

Where in Pokhara were you born?

No

Kathmandu?

nope

Hong Kong

Quietist sleep i'll ever sleep
