A small island that strangely enough still seems to consider itself a world power despite all evidence to the contrary.
The population is still divided by class because the British are still "subjects", not citizens due to the continuing presence of a monarchy. Accordingly the British classify themselves as upper, middle, or lower class on the strength of the job they do. Basically, Law, the civil service and the army is ok ( linked to monarchy), banking and finance tolerated ( money is worshipped in britain) but anything else means you are considered at the level of an African toilet cleaner.
Readership/non readership of the Daily Mail decides your level of patriotism. Accent, employment, education, post code, religion and net wealth makes or breaks the average Brit. One absolute stigma that makes you a "chav" ( modern pretentious middle class term for poor working class) is to find yourself living in social housing. This attitude was introduced by Maggie Thatcher in the 1980's to encourage the housing market.
Also, some time in the late 90's a constituent part of Britain, i.e. the English decided to base their national identity on the wearing of football shirts and the singing of "En-ger-land" over and over to any passing French or German person. Morris dancing and the eating of roast beef one presumes became a little dull in the light of Euro 96.
Currently Britain is considering making being a foreigner a criminal offence. This legislation is hoped to be brought in just in time before Britain disappears up it's own backside sometime after the 2012 Olympics.

In britain it is common to sing "two world wars, one world cup"
In Britain it is commonly accepted that shoddy workmanship "looks like it was done by an Indian"

Get the Britain mug.A country of hypcrites and pillow biters that thinks they are the best thing since sliced bread. They like to bash other countries (specifically America) about things they have no idea about. NO you were NOT the larget empire in history (*cough* roman) NO you were not behind evey major modern achievement (America is, dicovered how to harness electricity, the internet as we know it, aircraft, cars, the telephone, peanut butter, The light bulb, artificial heart, telegraph, sewing machine, liquid fueled rocket, traffic light, lie detector, bandaids, bulldozers I could go ON and ON)
Basically, the world would not be NEARLY as advanced as it is today without the "country of wanker's" inventions. You would all still be loading muskets, riding around in horse drawn wagons, and would only be able to travel by sea to other nations. Dont forget that without the internet *cough* also made by the U.S *cough* I could not be shutting all of you ignorant bastards down right now. OHHH yeah, and electricity, gee, what would the world be like if THomas edison didn't find out how to harness it?
Thats what I thought...

Get the Britain mug.A country that put my country, "Das Land von Deutschland" into recession for no god damn reason (just like France). Blaming my people for World War 1. They did not even have anything to do with the problem that some part of Austria-Hungary wanted to break off for some stupid reason. if the stupid black hand didn't kill the arch duke,"Franz Ferinand' there probably wouldn't have been a World War 1 or 2. But no. Annoying accents. smells like shit and also looks like it. Mean people, also they have some stupid laws und was nicht. Bad flag obessed; with football. Made my people pay for all damages for World War 1. They also have some bad leaders like churchill. Allied with france for no reason. Wanted harsh punishments for country when they did not do anything wrong in the first place. They are and still are a major threat to my country,"Germany". the people are just as mean,stupid, and annoying as they are in France. Basically, one of the worst countrys in Europe. They also drive on the other side of the car and road. are those stupid jackasses trying to kill people by creating an accident. They have a bad flag and mean stupid people with annoying accents like the french. They are not smart people, very rude and a major threat to thy people,"the GERMANS"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They also say, "bloody hell" to much.

Get the Britain mug.A country largely known by Irish people as: "Those pompous pricks who stole our country". Britain felt that, as the Irish were incapable of coherent thought, they would be doing us a favour by coming into our country, killing our people and forcing their language and religion down our throats. They are infamous for producing the "Black and Tans", a group of disgusting thugs who murdered a great deal of Irish people throughout the early 20th century. They held the greatest nation captive for seven hundred years - and succeeded in making us speak their language. They still hold six counties in the North of Ireland, as they successfully brainwashed the people there into believing that they WERE British.
Pompous person 1: "I do say, King Henry VIII, oughn't we do something about that silly little island next door? I do believe they speak some incoherent Gaelic language, and it is not nearly as coherent and wonderful as our beautiful language. They haven't got the same intelligence as we have in Britain."
King Henry VIII: "Yes, yes, do whatever you want, I've got a wife to execute! I do agree that our culture of murder and pillage is far better than whatever they do. Not that I know anything about them."
