What's an aspect of British history that you think people should be more aware of?

>The British were among the 'best' colonisers though, investing heavily in infrastructure and education in the colonies. This is such propaganda lmao. And honestly isn't even true. >Portuguese, Spanish and Italian colonies, the countries formerly ruled by the British Italy only really colonised Libya and Somalia. For Spain and Portugal, it's pretty mixed. Brazil is a mixed bag, but it isn't Somalia. It has good places (should note it became independent over 200 years ago). As for Spain, it's also a mixed bag. Argentina was one of the most rich countries in the world. >Where as the British had places like Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and Malaysia which are all stable first world nations. Most in Australia and NZ are literal descendants of British "settlers" lmao. They arguably are still under British rule through the monarchy. Malaysia is an Islamic country and considers non-Muslims to not be Malaysians. And you forgot Nigeria, Pakistan, India (when it became independent) and South Africa. * Literally all of the northern half of Nigeria is pure sharia and it inherited some awful colonial laws that it unfortunately still has (look at public opinions on LGBT there). * Pakistan is an Islamic country, it is going downhill economically, has had multiple military coups (more than any in South Asia), is essentially a terrorist state and is really unstable. And shit is only getting worse there. It isn't recent, either. It's been happening for decades. * India was literally one of the poorest countries in the world when it became independent in 1947 (not that it was rich before independence). All of its major growth has come in the last 30-40 years. And even then, it still needs to improve. * South Africa was an apartheid nation decades after it became independent. Only with insane international pressure did it this go away, way after independence. You just cherry-picked some "not so bad" examples. Seriously, some people really need to stop glorifying colonisation and wake up from the propaganda they've evidently been fed through fanfiction historical narratives.
