I've seen it manny a times when I form THE EMPIRE with Britain in HoI4, it required the short lived dominion of North America to make all of the USA and Canada a British core. Conquer the US and hand it to Canada, perfection.

The French are already asking for the statue of liberty back, so it’s only right if he does that

Only if the Red Coats take back the USA as their former colony and press fucking RESET.

The commonwealth is just another club for countries like the G7 these days. A lot of countries have been joining recently.

Dude thinks the world would be better off if the allies had lost WWII and now also if the US had lost the Revolutionary War.

Total loser who craves losses.

They always belonged together.
Both horrible neoliberal callous policies.
The old imperialist empire and the one that took over from them trying to catch up in warcrimes and death count.
