Little Britain 

A great show. I do really like it but there is a bad point, one I don't think Matt Lucas thought about. The endless quotes. If I heard one more "Yeah, but no, but" or "ano" or "Dust, Dust anyone" i may just have to rip there fucking heads off and destroy them!

Simon (Train Boy): You see Little Britain last night?"
Nick: "Yeah"
Simon (Train Freak): It was the best yet... Yeah but no but yeah but.." *smack*

Great Britain 

A small group of islands north of Europe from which the modern world was born, without which America would be called 'The United States of Spain.'

Don't bother arguing to the contrary, 'cause you know Britain has more soul.

Alan: How can such a small island do so much for the modern world?
Geoff: It's 'cos they're British!
Alan: roflmao!!!!!111 oh yea!

Victorian Britain

The United Kindom of Great Britain and Ireland, 1836-1901 (although this is usually extended to 1705-1914). A period of Great prosperity as Britains' second empire (the only remnants of the medievel empire after the end of the hundred years war decision in 1556 were the Channel Islands) came of age. Along with the starting points of joining England & wales with Scotland in 1705, the new empire set about restoring lands lost after the "Golden age", and this was overseen by Queen Victoria. Due to the fact that the poor were suppressed while the rich grew very rich and well educated with beautiful accents (like myself), the stereotype of the posh-Brit grew. This empire was practically gone by 1965, although this had been seen by Churchill as early as the end of world war I. However, in this time Britain became the largest superpower ever known. Off the back of what seemed and invincible navy, a skilled army and even the worlds' first air force (with air balloons, albeit), this mighty roaring lion seemed untameable until drawn into war with other superpowers, which allowed a weak-by-comparison nation (USA) to become powerful.

Victorian Britain was a reflection of the affluence of Britain, which was in control of itself, its' neighbour Ireland and had its' enemies on a leash for the most part.

Great Britain, America's Mother. 

Great Britain, the greatest, the proudest, one of the intelligent countries on earth.
Britain: Invented Industrial Revolution, The Computer, The Worldwide Web. The British invented many inventions used by America.

Britain: America decended from. 79% Of Americans have a British surname.

Britain: Influences America in all ways, America name their cities after Britain. (New England) (New London) (Leicester) (Manchester) (Birmingham) (Redding) (Lancaster) Ect.

Britain: Holds the worlds largest Empire of all time.
Namely Rule Britannia.
As this is fact, I believe many Americans hate the fact that such a small Island like Britain ruled 1/4 of the planet including their American land.

America: Claim they "kicked our asses" in the war of Independence, (Revoltuinary war) but purposely forget to mention that they single handed couldn't defeat us.
As long as they pray to who ever it is they pray to.. at nights, mornings, ect. and thank the French in their prayers they should be fine.
The war of 1812, where the British defending Canada against American invasion. Britain: The winner.

America: Always say "we saved your asses" in world war two. Now...to a certain extent, that is true...but, it wasn't America by themselves who saved the day.
All three allied victory powers, (America) (Britain) and (Russia) were all vital.
Russia defeated 75% of the German forces alone.
Britain held it's own for a period of time and fought off the Nazi aircrafts with the RAF although outnumbered.

Americans attacking from the Atlantic ocean would of been impossible. Americans needed Britains airbases to attack and invade Germany from. Along with further British Colonial reinforcements across the globe. (Royal Navy).

America: Electrocutes people, Gasses them.
America: Arrested for Jay-walking.
America: Pays for Hospital treatment.

Britain: NHS free healthcare.
Britain: spreaded the most populer language on earth.

America: Invent Sports such as American football.
If you havn't heard of that sport, it's probably because only Americans play it. It's moreless a British game but with the body armor and helmits called Rugby where Americans got their idea from.

Americans play Baseball, another British idea from a girls game called "rounders" which is infact Baseball but without the fancy gear that "Yanks" wear.

Britain is by far the best Country in the world.
I think Americans know this and the majority of them who actually do know this, no matter what the arrogant Yanks say, are very polight and respectable.

America: Money, Power, But bad undereducated history classes.

America: Think they're always right when they have the worse educational system on earth.
