No, I haven't forgotton my own history ( I am assumng you mean the country, not my personal history), and know more about it than most people,   except round here, as this is a generally well read, interested bunch of people). History is opinions, as wellas facts though, and eevreyone has their own opinions.

I just don't see how the Tearing our hair, and crying 'Weren't our grandfathers evil' does anything, especially as everyone is guilty if you go back enough generations.

If people want to go over something like this, then at least pick somewhere like Ireland, where the history is still relevant today.

The British Empire wasn't nearly as bad as some of the others in the way it treated people. I know less bad isn't much, but everything is relative, especially in the real world.
