I think three quarters of the British Army were in Europe fighting Napoleon, so not many troops were ever sent to America. It seems the Brits weren't that bothered about keeping the US as a colony at the time. Strange, bearing in mind how much natural resources etc were there?
Anyway, happy Independance Day to our American cousins, and also to Filipinos who also celebrate their independence on 4th July (from America)

During the War of 1812 but not during the American Revolution brah.....I'll have to double check with Beanz to make sure this isn't "drowning out a poster"
As for the Filipinos who celebrate their Independence Day the same as ours you might want to study up on that too....The United States whupped Spain and paid a little money to earn the Philippines, then the Filipinos attempted to revolt (and got their asses kicked), and then as the United States was working things out so that the Pinoys could rule themselves Imperial Japan sucker punched us, took the archipelago which Gen Douglas McArthur swore he'd return to and liberate and he did AND July 4th 1946 the Philippines celebrated their Independence via the Treaty of Manila 1946
Is it some kind of "en vogue" thing to be gratuitous with the backhanded compliments to the United States on the day when we celebrate our Independence?
Stiff upper lip.
There's no irony meant on my post. I thought that the Brits were mainly fighting in Europe during the War of Independance. I might be wrong, and if so I stand corrected.
I went to a pub quiz last night, and one of the questions was who else celebrated their Independance on 4th July, which I why I knew it was the Phillippines. It sort of makes a nice touch that the US gave them their Independance on the same day as their own one.
maybe you guys are so busy fighting battles on other threads that you are a bit conditioned to expect a dig or criticism
