https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_abolition_of_slavery_and_serfdom
Start at the year 1775 where it starts mentioning the colonies/states.
Forced to live a life of luxury and adoration by the masses? Wow, word to peasants who are truly suffering from crap these elites have burdened them with!
Ok cousins, but Charles refused to allow the divorce is my point, thus Henry started his own reformation.
His mother was Spanish, and he ruled from Spain. By the way, they were all intermarried. Which did not stop them from going to war, which those marriages were supposed to stop.
I have nothing against her, my whole talk is set off by the idea a King or Queen should be treated like a god or goddess by Americans.Which Americans are you referring to?
I’m certain she is knowing the peace of hearing, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant’.
She was not exemplary or of any import to anything affecting anyone other than the elite BS power brokers. May she rest in peace, but she is not anyone’s heroine.
I agree, in all that.
Their money is made from industries they owned before the Monarchy officially ended its control of the government. Yet their busineses were all created by the slave labor of the citizens.
That is not arguable, it is a fact.
Maybe not in the modern American sense. But in the broader, historical sense, monarchy is a conservative concept rather than a liberal one.
Historically, conservatism is about preserving tradition, hierarchy, and putting checks on democracy. Liberalism is about individualism, tearing down class barriers, and promoting free markets and civil liberties.
The conservatism of late 20th century America is really the Jeffersonian liberalism of early 19th century America. And today's liberals are the revolutionary Jacobites of that era.
The world at large sees monarchies as conservative. It's Americans who've created this anomalous definition that equate conservatism with individualism and free markets.
I have no knowledge of this, but despise monarchy and always will. I do believe that is the reason the USA exists, however brief it may be today as a free republic!
It was smoldering until he lit the fuse.
To deny his thesis is the point of eruption is just plain ignorance.
It had many things that were in place, but his letter was the straw that broke the camels proverbial back.
For lack of other points, all historians agree his these is what did it. No going back after that.
I wrote a college these on this. If you are ever interested in reading not. I did post it to FR years ago.
My thesis is that the Renaissance is what actually set it in motion, and we could make an argument that the Black Death had a huge part in it.
Many here on FR idolizing a Monarch!
Thanks for accepting my apology.
If you’re going to have a monarchy, Elizabeth was the kind of person you’d want at the head of it. Charles and Camilla re not.
She seemed dignified, stable, elegant, and proper. We could use a little of that.
We won the damn war, I could care less how many people ran to Canada after the King signed the treaty.
Or how many sat on the sidelines.
Every war in history has the majority uninvolved. Those who fought and died did it, regardless of the 2/3 who were not fighting for freedom.
Your whole argument is ridiculous.
Show me one Freeper saying the woman they admire and respect is a goddess.
They go from being used and abused by one narcissistic group of elitist oligarchs to another ???
The only reason we broke that cycle is the Second Amendment, that's why its under attack.
Elitist oligarchs do not set up parliaments unless they are toy (rubber-stamp) parliaments.
