Nothing new here.. They are always talking shit about the Falklands, fact is they are not Argentina's and never will be. :lol:How u know mikal maybe in 20 - 30 years falklands will be argentinian or both
How u know mikal maybe in 20 - 30 years falklands will be argentinian or bothThe people on the Falklands are directly related to British people, they sound like British people, they talk like British people and they act like British people, the UK will NEVER give the islands up unless the islanders want to, which they don't as they are all British, in 20-30 years the UK will still be there pumping oil from the sea bed.

Argentina should be instead remarking how the Brit empire is no longer - it would be of more effect than talking about Falklands.It still exists, under the name of 'British commonwealth' which is still the largest union in the world.
Plus how would talking of the 'non exsistant' British Empire offend the UK? It still remains the most powerful in history.
That's not what makes it effective, rather the fact that it was the British themselves who brought their so powerful empire down. Good work, lol.Empire was stable until the nazi's turned up, the US forced the UK to give the Empire up or it would use it's massive debt against us.

"Maybe". But they won't.

Not so powerful then lolAre you sure? The UK remains a super power, where as Argentina is just... There, with no global influence..
Actually Germany reached the point of starting WW2 because UK saw no reason to stop them from growing.As with all empires, there is an end, there will probibly never be an empire in the future again, maybe the British Empire was the last..
i spit on the name "uk britain" glorified italians dogsThanks for your intelligent input.
The Oil its no longer problem of Argentina's Government its now problem Of YPF since Argentina's government no longer sells petrol to SpainThe oil belongs to the UK, and the UK is prospecting for it as we speak, they will start drilling by 2016.
You can believe what you want but i just dont care very much about that when we have Antartica and Orcas and Sandwich del sur rich in petrolYou don't have Antarctica, also if you didn't know, the UK has a massive chunk of Antarctic territory. :razz:

>implying one can be considered super power while being under NATO controlOh right at that goes for the 'super power' USA aswell I assume?
No, the glorious Portuguese beat you. And pls learn to differ empire and community.Portuguese Empire:
Disputed, with both Argentina and Chile. It's worth nothing anyway, only scientific research can be doneStill nice to have that mass of land to add to your territory if you should ever need it. :roll:
Just because you have a next door neighbour, doesn't mean you own their house.Does if you're their land lord. :lol:
You don't have Antarctica, also if you didn't know, the UK has a massive chunk of Antarctic territory. :razz:Not sure if correct but, I thought the U.S owned almost all of Antarctica?

Would be funny if the Falkland islands just decided they had enough of the shit and just decided to invade Argentina.The Falklands 'army' are under the command of the UK so technically they have no army to invade anyone.. :D
On another note I have been playing too much Total War.
Ok, and how is that related? The Portuguese Empire lasted longer than Brit one.Pretty shit Empire then considering they 'lasted longer' but never gained as much power.
I'm from Argentina but i agree about the islands, and Argentina mustn't request for it.:bow:
Pretty shit Empire then considering they 'lasted longer' but never gained as much power.
2. Portugal was greatest in 16th century, while England was 'shit' according to you (if being slightly behind accounts for shit). Different times, I suppose. Doesn't matter now, they're both worth nothing.No.. The British Empire is still something, the British Empire is Commonwealth. ;)

I was answering this statement of yours:Wait until Brazil gains as much power as the UK before you talk about how 'weak' and 'under the control of the US' it is, well, not that this, what you said, is true anyway.
If you run out of things to say, just please stop posting. You're making yourself the laughing stock of this board, in a bigger dimension than the power of Britain Empire. :lol:

Britain is old and outdated news currently being overcrowded with immigrants. Wont work.Yes because Lithuania, a small country which barely anyone knows where it is, would beat the country with the worlds most sophisticated military which also hasn't been invaded in over 2000 years.
And Mikal, Lithuania would kick your country's ass so hard even now...... With its one tank army :rofl: :rofl:
What is UK geopolitically nowadays? Just another member of NATO under the leadership of USA, UK's ex-colony.1. The UK is not under the leadership of the US, don't know where you keep getting that from.. Post some proof of it, NATO is lead by all of it's member countries as a union.
What is UK economically? A country at the edge of financial crisis.
What is UK politically? A country about to lose 1/3 of itself.
I don't mean to call UK a shit country, but if we are going to talk power... I think you are not in place to speak.Actually, I am, and your jealousy leads you to post unaccurate, uneducated and false statements in an attempt to make the UK seem weak.
at least mikal tries to post some half-assed "facts".Klaus is right though.
I think you are not in place to speak.Ironic that this post is in the speakerbox.
1. The UK is not under the leadership of the US, don't know where you keep getting that from.. Post some proof of it, NATO is lead by all of it's member countries as a union.
2. The UK is a country that is going in and out of recession (in very small amounts) but currently has a stable economy.
3. The UK is the country which leads commonwealth, the UK is the country with the 2nd most global influence (after the US), the UK is a tiny island with more power than Brazil and every country surrounding it put together.
Ironic that this post is in the speakerbox.
Yes because Lithuania, a small country which barely anyone knows where it is, would beat the country with the worlds most sophisticated military which also hasn't been invaded in over 2000 years.
Just like your dear speaker's corner.Which is a place where anyone can discuss, exactly as this forum thread is for. And your point is..?
Countries that supported USA in overriding the investigation of UN Security Council and attack Iraq:UK is the USA's most powerful ally, why wouldn't they help the US?
UK
Does UK get in and out of European Union all the time too?No but there will be a referendum as to wether to stay or leave.
You're saying I am giving inaccurate info about UK, yet you keep implying that the Commonwealth (an association) is an empire... :rofl:The commonwealth is what the British Empire was renamed to when it changed it's goals to peace and protection and not power, territory and trade, so in essence the commonwealth IS the British Empire. As the wiki says on the British Empire, it was RENAMED, not disbanded.
Orly?Sorry what does Lithuania have to do with the UK, Falklands and Argentina regardless of this argument?
You're just showing your typical western education. You guys think that US, UK and Russia is the whole world :). Every country that is civilized enough knows where Lithuania is. Atleast the whereabouts.
Besides, just because it's small doesnt mean it is weak. We had a glorious past, defeated many enemies and conquered a lot of territories.
And that "small Lithuania" you're talking about has a unique Baltic language (Latvians are also baltic, we're same origin as the REAL prussians, not those germans), we also stood up against Soviets in the beggining of 20th century while you western "superpowers" were scared shitless :rofl:
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithuanian%E2%80%93Soviet_War (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithuanian%E2%80%93Soviet_War))
Also, we stood up against Soviets in 1991 again and rebuilt our republic without a single shot fired.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_Events_(Lithuania) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_Events_(Lithuania)) )
And oh wow, Lithuania stood up to Russia? Pretty much like N.Korea is doing to the US right now, which is stupid, because it will end up obliterated, just like Lithuania if they ever dared to lay a finger on Russia. Now please take your super power country to a topic which has some relation to it.
Oh wait, i doubt you can even read.Says the guy that has worse grammar than me..
Well, we did. We kicked the Soviets out of Lithuania by gun in 1919, and we did it without guns in 1991. Look up the links i gave you. Oh wait, i doubt you can even read. When it comes to starting pointless discussions, arguments and making non funny, racist and idiotic jokes, you're good at it, but when it actually comes to a debate, you start to play a good guy :rofl:
Lithuania is as unimportant in modern world as it is to this thread. Please leave.:bow:

Who was more powerful regardless of who lasted longer? Not to mention the British Empire was around long long before the Portuguese one.

It's correct.
US empire controls the entire worldUS 'empire' is going bankrupt. :cool:
US 'empire' is going bankrupt. :cool:if the us goes bankrupt, so does most of the civilized world, no one will ever let this happen.

money is irrelevantThat's not what you implied when you posted this
if the us goes bankrupt, so does most of the civilized world
money is irrelevantNo it's not, money is needed to get out of bankruptcy, something which nobody has enough of to bail the US out, the only way forward for the US is more debt, it gets into more debt everyday, the US is a country standing on it's last feet.
if the us goes bankrupt, so does most of the civilized world, no one will ever let this happen.:lol: Suggesting countries like the UK would fall if the US went bankrupt? No.. The UK's economy is in no way linked to the USA's, so no country unless sharing an economy with the US would fall, though if the US did go bankrupt, China's production would slow, giving other countries a chance to make some money, so the US going bankrupt would actually be good for other countries.
like it or not the united states controls the western world, youre all americansNo... Just no..
Suggesting countries like the UK would fall if the US went bankrupt? No.. The UK's economy is in no way linked to the USA'sLOL
LOL.No... It would not.. The UK has it's OWN ECONOMY which has NOTHING to do with the US economy, both countries do not support each other economically.
If USA goes to bankrupt, it would hit London and UK faster, then the West coast of the same bloody USA.
If USA goes to bankrupt, it would hit London and UK faster, then the West coast of the same bloody USA.
UK wouldn't even exist anymore. Only England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wells. Wells would maybe, or maybe not stay with England.For starters you can't even spell Wales, and yes, the UK would exsist, it's been here since 1801 managing independently and has survived through ALL the problems that have hit it, it didn't even get invaded in the WW's no matter how much the nazi's tried, why would something such as the USA going bankrupt affect the UK in any way at all, it would not.. I don't know how you're educated in economics but clearly you need to study it alot more, the only thing it would effect is the USA and anyone who's been investing money in them.. I mean honestly get your facts straight man.
It's correct.
No.. The Antarctic territory shown on the British Empire map is still British territory today, infact the British Govt renamed it to 'Queen Elizabeth Land' last year.
Actually that map its incorrect
the antartic continent that its showed like GB its Argentinian since 1910

:lol:As Mario said, no need to keep arguing it, the UK would still exist fine if the US went bankrupt.
You're hilarious. You don't know anything about the subject, like many times before, yet you're having a debate for the sake of debating. Live in your bubble dream, if you ever get a education in economy, specially international economy then we can talk, till then stick to the sheep.
I'm argentinian. The Falklands are non-self-governing territories. They are British by rapture and war, and argentinian by continental shelf, heritage and geographical position. The only problem here is the patriotism. Why are we debating about a little and cold piece of earth? :poke:
British won them by war, accept that. If we assume that territories gained by war aren't valid, we'll have to modify the entire world map :/
British won them by war, accept that. If we assume that territories gained by war aren't valid, we'll have to modify the entire world map :/Now tell that to your President, she seems unable to just drop it.
Now tell that to your President, she seems unable to just drop it.
why should she drop it when she's pushing shit hard enough that we might just get the islands, even if it's not really fair? :) The goverment knows it's a load of crap, but it's working great for the country - common enemy and all that.I doubt we'd just hand over the islands after all we've lost men and women over them, so to just give them to Argentina some would say is a waste of those people's lives. The only time that we would give them to Argentina is if the Falkland Islanders want it, which we shall see in the upcoming referendum. But as it seems at the current most consider themselves British and want to stay that way.
I have a fair solution for this. Just make the islands independent.There are three types of people on the Falklands. Those who want to remain British, those who wish to be Argentinian and those who wouldn't care either way. To just make it independent would give the islands more trouble than they have right now as they won't really know where they belong in the world. The UK has done a lot for the islands - we have defended them for years, built their roads, hospitals, schools and vital infrastructure. To just give it away would be a huge 'waste' to the UK taxpayer who have been funding our overseas citizens the over years.
