No one is interested in conquering the pathetic little island, they are dismantling themselves. They left the EU and no one cries over it, instead everyone is glad they are gone. How is Brexit going for you?
If you're only counting Britain and not England then they lost the European theatre of the American Revolution, and every war of the coalition from the 1st to the 5th.
I'm pretty sure that dude just has no idea what the American Revolution is.

Quite possibly, but it wouldn't be the first time I've heard an American refer to the Seven Years War as 'The European theatre of the American Revolution'.
So England won all relevant wars except the American Revolutionary War and the Hundred Years War? >inb4 the Norman Conquest
Right, let's call "England" to that
Once Napoleon got Portugal involved England never retreated outside of Continental Portugal, the only time it retreated after failing to invade "Spain" was when John of Gaunt failed to be crowned King of Castille (which he rightfully was)
>Once Napoleon got Portugal involved England never retreated outside of Continental Portugal
Actually, it did. John Moore's army had to evacuate Portugal.
>Once Napoleon got Portugal involved
By that point British armies had already retreated three times back to their island (1795, 1799 and 1808)
>England never retreated outside of Continental Portugal
Except for that one British army in the Netherlands in 1809 that evacuated Dunkirk-style after a failed landing
i don't see anything red in europe and east asia
the anglos can only fight against speak chuckling natives(while the northern french gigachad is fricking anglo women)
>look, 2 square kilometers areas in europe and east asia bro
absolutely pathetic
you were never relevant, you can only fight against people with a paleolithic tech level, you never managed to conquer anything where it matter(europe and east asia), while europeans conquered your entire island multiple times
>Funny how the Anglo made Afghanistan a protectorate, where many have failed
the anglo cant fight for shit

Yeah, totally insignificant and pathetic. Plus it makes Spain seethe, which would be worth it even without it being one of the more important strategic locations on the planet.
keep coping anglo
you never conquered anything more than a few sqaure kilometers in europe
you never proved yourself against people at your same tech level, the other way around happened too often however, the northern french is still on top in your island, even the name "anglo" has been adopted because a few danes invaded your island and raped your women (again)

Yeah whatever, fact of the matter is you're a lonely person with no real-life friends and the only way you can temporarily numb the sensation of lonliness in your life is by being purposely confrontational on the internet for guaranteed conversation.

Crazy, the naval power situated on an island fights using it's navy, preventing an enemy from invading, very odd, what the British should've done is epicly zerg rush fukken napoleon >:) yeh frick them up epic style haha yesss!!!!
The royal navy was first created in 1546, off the top of my head, no invasion from the continent was actually successful after that, unless you're counting the glorious revolution as a invasion, considering it's military aspects consisted of two minor battles, and the "invading" king had the mass support of everyone with power within England, I was at, i think chatsworth house recently? Anyway, the lord who owned that house had planned to meet with William III, specifically in front of a painting of Caesar crossing the rubicon, the implication being that were William to renege on his offer of the gilded cage of the throne of england, he'd wind up in a similar matter to caesar, and that doesn't strike me as something you'd do to a glorious conqueror.
You're projecting literal thousands of years of history into the past, when did "englishness" begin, did the romans conquer the English? Did the Anglo saxons then displace the English again? Were the English defeated by William, for a third time? England, and englishness have been defined over a thousand years, a mixture of the various people who have lived here, as is every modern european nation, the french are not the gauls of antiquity, and projecting national idenitites into the past is stupid, and clouds serious understanding of history, it's also something this board does fricking constantly.
>, did the romans conquer the English? Did the Anglo saxons then displace the English again? Were the English defeated by William, for a third time?
yes
the native english, from which you descend mostly, lost many times, "anglo"
> unless you're counting the glorious revolution as a invasion
yup, that was an invasion, and the only native rulers of britain(the stuart) were kicked out, so the british could be dominated by continentals again

What the frick are you talking about, My grandparents were universally Irish immigrants, "the native english" are an invention, there is no point you can say "englishness began", because englishness is an invented social category, it'd be like asking when being cool was invented or something, the question is absurd, this moronic dick measuring contest about who has the most epic nation is fricking dumb, you, are fricking dumb.
>yup, that was an invasion
Absolutely absurd conclusion that ignores the entirety of the context to the glrious revolution. >and the only native rulers of britain(the stuart) were kicked out, so the british could be dominated by continentals again
The entire point of the glrious revolution was that it capped the power of the royal office, which the protestant nobility worried wouldn't be respected by the catholic Stuarts, William III didn't "dominate" jackshit, you've filled your brain with shitty memes instead of actual history.

You're moronic, William had virtually no power within England, he didn't "guide" anyone.
Why are you doing this? Are you having fun? I've been on the other end of this, so i know to some extent, you definitely are, but this isn't fufilling, is it, you're not actually getting anything out of this short of the rush of a (you) and the feeling that you really got one off on some randos, and if want to be le epic trole, at least make it frickin' funny dude, this is just being loudly moronic.

It didn't occur that often
Only wars I can think of during which it occurred are
>French Revolutionary Wars (in 1795 and 1799)
>Napoleonic Wars (in 1808 and 1809)
>WW2 (in 1940)
7 years war
>>WW2 (in 1940)
The British were fighting in Africa in 1940
>spain

Continentals seething that they cant conquer the pathetic island
it was conquered, the pathetic island is a French colony
The French never conquered it and it is still an English nation, so no, not a colony either. Despite what your low-quality YT vid might tell you.
No one is interested in conquering the pathetic little island, they are dismantling themselves. They left the EU and no one cries over it, instead everyone is glad they are gone. How is Brexit going for you?

There's delusional and self centred - then there's Americans.

They're only delusions if they're not true.
You are right. c**ts can't accept their failure.
>the European theatre of the American Revolution
Then you don't have a lot of culture.
>what is the HYW
Here's a list of wars they lost against France (in blue)
To these you can add all those they lost to Spain, the Netherlands, Russia...etc
So England won all relevant wars except the American Revolutionary War and the Hundred Years War?
>inb4 the Norman Conquest
Right, let's call "England" to that
you forgot the norman conquest
britain is still under northern french control

i don't think that worked very well, england as been conquered so many times by other europeans it's not even funny
Compared to France or Germany its absolutely nothing.
well at least frence and germany conquered other europeans too, england only got conquered by other europeans, never the other way around
Because England only desired peace with their fellow Europeans. They are the most benevolent pro-European power of all time.
