Thread: Colonialism.... a comparison

Yes, the KMT and Japanese army could have defeated Mao had the Japanese army not decimated the KMT and assuming that the KMT would be willing to allign themselves with the Japs.

It's up there with what if I chose a different 7 numbers and won the powerball.

Colonial history hinges on little things. America had far more in common with the British than the French and yet an old American lecher that would resemble the average dude in Pattaya convinced the French to bankrupt their economy to support American Independence. The French had a terrible colonial history and yet were the saviors of the American colony. No way the French King's American support made any sense except for the guy who cut off his head. The Brits were really stupid to anger the Americans and the French at the same time same as the Aussies did to the Japanese. I see nothing but positives if America had stayed in the UK. Better beer. Better cheese. Better political system, no Civil war no slavery. What's not to like?
