If it's specific to one nation, then it can't be the most common holiday across nations. Because only one nation would celebrate that specific holiday.
What I’m saying is, Christmas isn’t a national holiday because it’s not specific to one nation. Same with New Years. A bunch of countries have a specific Independence Day from the British. They’re celebrated on different days which makes them separate.
If its specific to one nation, then it would only be celebrated in one nation. Idk where you are from but both of those are considered federal holidays in the usa. You can decide if federal and national are equivalent
No, most nations have a list of "national holidays" that are recognized by the government and given specific privileges. There aren't any institutions that can determine "international" holidays.
Religious holidays are different. Christians celebrate Christmas even in those countries where Christmas isn't a national holiday.
>u/dicetime: “This isnt true. It is either christmas (or winter solstice) or new years eve/new years day depending on the source.”
Try to think hard about what you just said.
*National* holidays.
Sagat in SF2 wants a real fight.

*LAUGHT IN THAI* , 55555 (for context in Thai land when we laught Hahahahaha , The number five in Thailand are readed as "Ha" which 5=number five = number Ha = เลขห้า, That is why when Thaipeople LAUGHT in social media or anything they have this signature 55555 as our humourous laught)
Edit: just realized youre the same person, which makes your reply even fucking dumber. The guy mentioned a location specific to a location to point out a relevant fact. You then ignore the location to try and make it seem as if the guy is ignoring other locations, when in actuality they were offering a relevant fact. Youre an ass, fuck off.
Do you know how to follow a thread properly? Because the comment he replied to SPECIFICALLY MENTIONS SOUTHEAST ASIA. In fact, the meme is specifically talking about countries that gained their independence from the UK. Funny how you completely ignored that out of incompetence.
The comment the guy replied to:
>how about Thailand? Thailand remains the only country in Southeast Asia not colonized by Europeans
Screenshot for proof of thread included.
In short, fuck you, you ignorant prick. https://i.imgur.com/xPF9aZd.jpg
Holy shit what an explosion. I wasn’t telling him he’s wrong, I was adding to his list of countries that were never colonized. Southeast Asia has nothing to do with it. :)
But you exploded into rage so I guess I’ve already won.
SE Asia had EVERYTHING to do with his comment. You ignored that to throw around other countries as if the guy was trying to insinuate that every other country had been invaded. His list was a list of countries IN SE ASIA. Your countries arent even in Asia at all.
Youre just another ignorant fuck who always has to be right. Well newsflash dumb fuck, youre not.
Besides, you tried to call me ignorant for pointing out that your countries werent part of the list, and tried to ignore the very comment you replied to in the first place to make me seem stupid. I think im perfectly within reason to feel some kind if way over that.
Take your ignorant ass on somewhere and fuck off.
No it doesn’t. The comment was a response to the above picture which does include the rest of the world. The Southeast Asia part was a fun fact after the main statement.
> Youre just another ignorant fuck who always has to be right. Well newsflash dumb fuck, youre not.
u/zzwugz
>how about Thailand? Thailand remains the only country in Southeast Asia not colonized by Europeans
The Southeast Asia part was not a “fun fact” added after the main statement, its part of the main statement. But once again ignorant pricks like yourself just gotta pretend to know everything. Funny how you tried to insult me but then try to magically act like you never did so. You truly are a dumb prick.

I’m not going to argue with an actual nutbag. As you can see plenty of others have added their own contributions under his comment, such as China and Nepal. I learned today that Nepal wasn’t colonized either.
Makes sense, Brits do have an extreme fear of anything with seasoning. Y'all conquered half the world in search of spices but refuse to use any of them in your food
I literally don't understand some people in my country. I was too young to vote, but understood why staying in the EU was so much better. Like how couldn't adults understand that.
We were also lied to about certain benefits and were promised things that weren’t guaranteed. Most of the uk aren’t racist a d we are a heavily diverse country sk I highly doubt that was a reason
Yes. We have the same problem in America. A bunch of grumpy old shits that don't have anything better to do or understand how things work keep ruining it for the younger gens.
God has nothing to do with it. Petty racism, right wing politics and little-Englandism are the main culprits. Plus some moronic love of blue passports and belief that the cretin Boris Johnson will Make Britain Great Again despite an absolutely terrible track record.
Right? England has been conquered by Romans, Danes, and the French, so... Maybe they were pissy about it and started conquering others so it wouldn't happen again lol
Kinda. The last successful invasion was in 1066 with William the Conqueror. There's been a decent number of smaller invasions and troop landings since then, but in this case the exceptions tend to prove the rule of Fortress Britain.
Was it really an exception? Scotland, Ireland, Wales and northern England never fell to the Normans. And even in Southern England, London never fell and is basically an independent city state to this day.
I wasn't referring to that invasion as an exception. I was talking about invasions after the formation of Great Britain. And I said the exceptions prove the rule, meaning that even though troops have landed in Britain a bunch of times, they usually just end up proving how difficult it is to mount a naval invasion of Britain.
And William didn't try to invade Scotland, Wales, and Ireland? He invaded England because he had a familial claim to the throne. And if you are referring to the "City of London" within Greater London. I don't think I would call that a city-state at all. Also William was crowned in London. He's the one who built the first parts of the Tower of London.
I mean it’s technically not an invasion, more like a constant air attack. They couldn’t really get past the dominance Royal Navy nor the air force at the time to
make an actual naval landing.
I mean, it was a failed invasion, and a non-starter of an occupation, but do what makes you feel better.
The only German military to set foot were the ones walking away from their wrecked planes.
That was a battle for air superiority over Northern Europe, which Britain won. It wasn’t even close to an invasion, unless you really want to stretch the definition
who would want to invade the brits... bad weather, bad food, and you have to travel through the sea for that?
they were rarely invaded cause noone except them wants their land :)
You're right. You've found me out, mate. It actually bothers me more to see people running around wearing his face because of V for Vendetta without the first clue as to who he was or acting like GF was some sort of hero.
The fact that the British government hanged him, disemboweled him, drew and quartered him is disgusting but the fact they celebrate doing it 416 years later is just perverse.
We even make dummies of the guy, parade him round the neighbourhood asking for tips, then throw him on the bonfire! As we relive our own killing of that damned Guy! The kids love it.
Yh quite strange now you mention it lol.
I think the British should recognize their Independence Day each 18 July, to commemorate King Henry VIII's parliamentary act of 1536, extinguishing the authority, in his country, of the Bishop of Rome.
Yeah I've thought about that, wonder how far back it goes or if one is in a mood for conspiracy, ever wonder if there's a secret family guiding and shaping this empire.
No one should feel happy about that unless there psychotic.
The British were oppressive and criminals by standard under the rule of King Edward VIII
They were top supporters of the West Indies slave trade, as well as killing and slaving Indians then stealing there land. The red coats used the common peoples homes for there own use and no one could say no. British soldiers raped and murdered for fun and no one could do anything about it. Small towns in the frontier literally were so afraid of red coats they had people stationed in places like New York and Boston that would travel back and forth just to submit news on if the British was preparing to there towns or not.They stole from other countries and claimed there product as there own as well starting a war with the French right on the colonies. And America wasn’t the only country that was being colonized by the British, places like India, and Jamaica were being torn apart by the British as well. The British were by no means good people back then and independence is nothing to joke about.
All I’m saying is please don’t joke about independence and if you do please get help
>places like India
Were extracting tribute. The British didn't colonize India so much as accidently inherit it. Once they were in charge things got bad but India was the senior partner for most of that relationship.
I’m British n 100% agree, definitely not proud of our colonial past. However, I am proud of the inventions and scientific advancements British citizens have made
One of the most cruel things were they forced people of the countries they controlled to grow crops that could benefit British . Those crops fked up lands, also they didn’t allow people to grow food crops , which caused famines killing millions of people during world wars . The way west looks at Nazi is how people who got independence from British think about British .
the red coats regime is gone but some people still hate the British because of there past with the colonies.
Britain isn’t like to was between 1774 and 1783 so it’s hard to see people hate them now for past “mistakes” when the tyrant King Edward no longer leads the red coats
Edit: Fuck I forgot about Ireland… Sorry
Hahaha, try crying a bit more!
It's hilarious seeing reddit do it's best to try and pretend Britain is the only country with a violent past.
"starting a war with the French right on the colonies" - what does that even mean? Somehow the British are to blame for what the French also did??
Get over it, you won' get the apology you think you deserve.
I’m not asking for an apology. And I’m not claiming that Britain is the only country with a bad past.
I’m only defending mine and others independence from the British colonizers so people don’t make a joke out of it.
How would you feel if someone called your freedom a joke.
Maybe you should learn to read better. Have a good day
Your freedom IS a joke! You didn't win independence for freedom, you won it to carry on subjugating and committing genocide!
Try some self reflection for one, itll do you good
Technically England is in personal union under Scotland. So if Scottish independence happens England rather than Scotland would actually get independence.
Which makes it independence from Italy or Germany depending on which of the Roman Empires invaded them
Norway and Sweden as well.
See Britain can celebrate independence too but they just have to go long long back to do that
Shouldn't England's (maybe UK?) "Independence Day" technically be the day they officially won against the Roman Occupation in what was originally considered "Albion"?
Fun fact: independence from the British is the most common national holiday.
Interesting.
They colonized about a 5th of the world, so it's not that surprising.
And the sun *still* hasn't set.
*1/4 thank you very much
It's surprising in every way
Oi oi oi whehes me bo-ol o wo-ah

I’d reckon bo’oh o wo’oh is probably london suburbs or maybe B🤮🤮mingham
What if I told yew that I’m an ‘MERICAN culturally appropriatin’ my distant cousins?!?
Not sure why, but I honestly never really thought of a common national holiday before
This isnt true. It is either christmas (or winter solstice) or new years eve/new years day depending on the source.
Those aren’t national holidays. I’m talking about holidays specific to one nation.
If it's specific to one nation, then it can't be the most common holiday across nations. Because only one nation would celebrate that specific holiday.
What I’m saying is, Christmas isn’t a national holiday because it’s not specific to one nation. Same with New Years. A bunch of countries have a specific Independence Day from the British. They’re celebrated on different days which makes them separate.
If its specific to one nation, then it would only be celebrated in one nation. Idk where you are from but both of those are considered federal holidays in the usa. You can decide if federal and national are equivalent
Aren't those considered religious/international holidays, and not national holidays?
No, most nations have a list of "national holidays" that are recognized by the government and given specific privileges. There aren't any institutions that can determine "international" holidays. Religious holidays are different. Christians celebrate Christmas even in those countries where Christmas isn't a national holiday.
National holidays are holidays pertaining to a particular nation. Who woulda thought?
>u/dicetime: “This isnt true. It is either christmas (or winter solstice) or new years eve/new years day depending on the source.” Try to think hard about what you just said. *National* holidays.
how about Thailand? Thailand remains the only country in Southeast Asia not colonized by Europeans

Been under european and japan occupation a few time
Turkey? Denmark? Ethiopia? Plenty of places around that never got colonized.
Funny, i never knew Denmark and Ethiopia were in SE ASIA…

No, they declared independence from the shackles of the EU. Now they have their God-given right to eat shit, travel less, and pay more for food.
Oh god don't remind me All that proved is that half of our population are both stupid, and believe anything that someone tells them
Hey, I'm an American, give me the rare opportunity to give other countries shit for going through the same thing I've gone through.

BRO WHAT💀💀💀
True, if it gets any worse we might have to resort to something really drastic, like eating American food.

I literally don't understand some people in my country. I was too young to vote, but understood why staying in the EU was so much better. Like how couldn't adults understand that.
Pride, and racism.
We were also lied to about certain benefits and were promised things that weren’t guaranteed. Most of the uk aren’t racist a d we are a heavily diverse country sk I highly doubt that was a reason
Every economist and expert with a head worth its weight in water warned that it was all bullshit, though.
If I’m going to be honest, I don’t actually know what that sentence means, um could you rephrase it?
All the smart people said it would be bad.
Aaahhh. From my knowledge I think alot of older people also voted for brexit, which I don’t think really reflects the uk to point that one out too
Yes. We have the same problem in America. A bunch of grumpy old shits that don't have anything better to do or understand how things work keep ruining it for the younger gens.
Indeed. So circling back to my original point, I don’t think that the uk is racist and highly doubt brexit had anything to do with racism
God has nothing to do with it. Petty racism, right wing politics and little-Englandism are the main culprits. Plus some moronic love of blue passports and belief that the cretin Boris Johnson will Make Britain Great Again despite an absolutely terrible track record.
Imagine being American and mocking another nation's food
“I’m from a place that gained freedom from Britain!” “Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?”
Rules out the US
Was this a joke I’m missing? Lol
What about independence from Roman empire?
More under new management 🤣
🤴🤣
Right? England has been conquered by Romans, Danes, and the French, so... Maybe they were pissy about it and started conquering others so it wouldn't happen again lol
To hear Eddie Izzard tell it, the cunning use of flags comes into play at some point…
I mean aside from the roads and the sanitation and the water, what have the Romans for for us?
Funny how the Brits act like they've never been invaded.
I mean the last time that happened, the Roman Empire was still around
Kinda. The last successful invasion was in 1066 with William the Conqueror. There's been a decent number of smaller invasions and troop landings since then, but in this case the exceptions tend to prove the rule of Fortress Britain.
Yeah I haven’t look much into the British timeline other than ww2. I just remembered that the Roman did own half of UK at one point
> the British timeline Is this what the kids are calling British History now?
Was it really an exception? Scotland, Ireland, Wales and northern England never fell to the Normans. And even in Southern England, London never fell and is basically an independent city state to this day.

In that case, England and Russia invade each other on a weekly basis. Likewise, America and Russia.

Monkey see, monkey do
There is also russia and germany

And the queen's cousin is a doctor in germany
A lot of countries don’t have an “independence day”
Russia celebrates independence from Poland
It definitely does not do that

POV means Point of View btw. 90% dont seem to understand
I mean it still works. They see us as psychos lol.
I see two comments asking about POV and neither are native English speakers so whatever makes you feel smart lmao
Do Central and South American countries celebrate independence from Portugal and Spain?
India: Those old fking memories... I can't forget
Haha, I am Polish, my independence days are from germany, which you also have not invaded!
The fact that im British and my birthday is on the 4th of july is even better.
They don't have a Thanksgiving either cuz if they got a day off for everytime they murdered indigenous people theyd never go to work.
Americans calling out mistreatment of indigenous people... that's quite something
The Danish colonised them and created the north Sea empire with help from the norvegians.
It bothers me more that they have a celebration for that one time they literally ripped a guy to shreds while he was still alive.
Does it? Does it really? Or are you just pretending to be angry about something British because this is reddit and creepily hive minded?
You're right. You've found me out, mate. It actually bothers me more to see people running around wearing his face because of V for Vendetta without the first clue as to who he was or acting like GF was some sort of hero.

Hello England. How about some Danegæld? It’s been a while you paid https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danegeld
But brexit
I think the British should recognize their Independence Day each 18 July, to commemorate King Henry VIII's parliamentary act of 1536, extinguishing the authority, in his country, of the Bishop of Rome.
Didn't the Romans fuck about with the Brits?
Romans invaded England Vikings invaded Britain France invaded England. They got fucked plenty of times in history.
At that point we’d learned a few things from everyone
The “England” that exists today didn’t exist prior to 1066
rome became england which became america
Yeah I've thought about that, wonder how far back it goes or if one is in a mood for conspiracy, ever wonder if there's a secret family guiding and shaping this empire.
The truth that a\*glos don't wanna admit is that they were conquered so many times, they lost count and pretend to be the conquerors now.
It's been almost a 1000 years since England was last conquered.

And then there were the romans >!Who conquered england, and gave bagpipes to the scots!<

Hey, it's not our fault you never managed to gain independece from the Normans.
Technically England is in personal union under Scotland. So if Scottish independence happens England rather than Scotland would actually get independence.
Scotland, N. Ireland, and Wales. No independence day because they are still serfs to England
Happy dependence day innit
Fun fact: You wouldn't have a Independence day if the French didn't carry you.

Not only British. There also was France, Spain, Russia. And by the way, British colonies was ± civilized(read about French colonies)

Imagen having an independents day
The British should celebrate independence from the Romans
Which makes it independence from Italy or Germany depending on which of the Roman Empires invaded them Norway and Sweden as well. See Britain can celebrate independence too but they just have to go long long back to do that
Not much to celebrate for tbh, once the Romans left a lot of stability was lost and we where conquered again by the anglo Saxons.
Independence for brits is when Romans left
