Actually Pug, Jeremy Paxman did a series of BBC documentaries on the Empire earlier in the year. I think one of the eps focused quite a bit on the East India Company. They're on youtube I think.

Sweet! Just found it on youtube! Thanks mate.
Going to watch this later tonight. . .
THis it? Looks like a 5 part series, one hour each. . Nice!
It was the largest empire ever covered nearly a quarter of the globe ruled over nearly a quarter of the population.
Had Largest most powerful navy, bigger then the next three opposing navies combined.
Language, Law, home of the industrial revolution.
Just off the top of my head also had bad points as did every empire but yeah it's probably the greatest of all the empires second only to maybe the Romans.
Obviously you are biased. Germany did either completely take over, or partially occupy a lot of inland Europe during WW2.
You are too emotional to discuss this with; like little girl!
I'm interested in discussing this with people who are not inherently biased against a culture, or a country for whatever reasons. You bear some sort of hate, or dislike towards the British Empire.
Care to explain what WW2 has to do with the British Empire or that era? When you stated they had never been conquered i didn't correct you because i assumed you were talking about that specific era. Seems that you're just cherry picking whatever fits your assertion instead.
When you brought up Germany i even helped your weak argument by bringing up their success in a earlier era 3 C.E. - 8 C.E. which was their most successful and influential period but also noted that if you're going to be bringing that earlier period up then the Angles and Saxons along with the Normans would obviously have to be included in relation to England.
As for your personal remark its amusing and ironic considering that you never cease with your constant attention whoring posting pics and vids and whetever else you do to aquire attention on here, lets not FORGET YOUR CONSTANT CAPS. The only poster that is as feminine with their behaviour on here is Boss Lady.
