Holy god this rules. Let's all talk about how dishonorable it is to fit warp core stabs and speculate about whether LV will be able to hold DG- now

That seems to be a god-awful K:D ratio.
But somehow, we're still better than PL.
On the one hand you don't have dungar
But on the other hand you have jake noble
It's a tough call

so anybody here have any thoughts on why England turned out to be the most forward looking and progressive of all the European monarchies, circa mid 18th century? I stared thinking about it last night and I have no idea, like you look at all the other royal powers of Europe and you're confronted with absolute power time after time (Spain, France, Austria, Russia). So what made England special? Like, yeah, I understand Magna Carta and all, but let's go a step further and ask why it only happened in England instead of somewhere else? |

Well, we did export a lot of our useless and terrible subjects.
I think the convicts kinda went to one country, and the really, really, really awful people, worse even than the convicts, went to a different country.
Something like that.
joking aside, I ask because as an antebellum american president I hate the british wholly and absolutely - BUT - there seemed to be a consensus amongst the founding fathers that, as they went to draw up our brave nation, they should model their efforts on contemporary English law. So english law and government, circa mid 18th century, owned. But why? |
