Forget decades, its been centuries. Eddie Izzard talks about our cunning strategy of conquering the world using flags: Rock up in the boat, feet on sand, flag in ground "I claim this land for King and Country", "oh look locals..No flag? No country! But you can become our slaves if you like".I agree with Codel that we should stop stamping our will, and in a reeaaallllyyy hippy kinda way, I'd like it if we could all just get along, and back tracking a couple of pages, I think ending religion and fair trade will help a little.
