No. Our economy isn't growing, it's remained relatively stable. It certainly isn't going to overtake Germany, Japan or the USA; and we'll soon be overtaken by China. Most British companies are owned by foreign corporations. We've had our turn at world domination, we won't get another.

By the way, our empire was a liability, not an asset. It cost us billions a month to maintain.

that's certainly frightening how close the British got here to falling during the conflict of england. If Hilter listened to Rommel and attacked the Suez Canal particularly of Russia, Britain might have lost its oil reserves. without oil, Britain might have fallen, no longer remember how difficult the British fought returned. If Britain fell throughout WWII, the U. S. might have positioned all its attempt into defeating the jap after Pearl Harbor. Germany ought to then turn its interest on attacking the U. S. (in the event that they might have listened to Rommel and in no way attacked the Soviet Union). it could have been a very bloody and long conflict if the Germans and jap centred their protection rigidity capability on attacking the Americas. the U. S. and Canada may well be only now improving from the conflict on their soil. ultimately the U. S. and the Axis might have signed a peace treaty. yet on the instant maximum of Europe and Asia might nonetheless be below a fascist government.

No, Britain will never achieve superpower status again.

The next big country is the Czech Republic.

While trolling through information about the massive 9-11 conspiracy, I realized that I never read any websites about the Czech navy. You may find that logical regarding a land-locked country, but I was not convinced.

Then I realized there are hundreds of warships worldwide that cannot be accounted for. I put two and two together and realized that the Czech Republic must be secretly buying these warships, and amassing a huge flotilla which they intend to use to blockade any country that dares oppose them.

Pretty soon, the massive Czech navy will roar out of whatever secret harbor(s) they use to hide their massive fleet, and conquer an unsuspecting world. Their empire could last for a thousand years, so if I were you, I'd buy a book on Czech grammar and learn to like cabbage and dumplings.
