The British Empire emerged in the late 16th century.

The Roman Empire and the British Empire are two totally different phases in human history.

Yes, and I jumped in to clarify that protection isn't the goal of covering up and that men don't dictate how women cover up. I am not discussing whether covering up makes u immune to assaults or what I think ppl should wear because of course you aren't immune to assaults bcus you're covered and people can't be forced to wear more/less than they please. Thought that goes without saying..

Ok, then.

The man who corrected you is right.

The Western Roman Empire came to an end in 476 bc. The Eastern roman empire came to an end in the 15th century.

There was an attempt to revive the Roman empire...with the establishment of the Holy Roman Empire...in the 9th century...By the 19th century it had become the Austro-hungarian empire(for complicated reasons).

The British Empire is not a continuation of the Roman Empire....rather, it was a fresh foundation.The British who were under Roman rule were Celts....who after the Romans left were displaced by the Jutes, Saxons and Angles....descendants of whom form the nation of England. The Saxons, in particular, were never Roman Empire subjects.

As at now the Roman empire is done and dusted.(The EU is more of a confederation....hardly an empire...unless you want to discuss it in eschatologic terms).

So because these countries were part of the Roman Empire they were and still are the imperialists?
So because Nigeria was part of the British Empire they were and still are imperialists?

Again the origins of the Brtish Empire can be traced with the Saxon conquest of England in the 5th century. The Saxons themselves were never Roman subjects.(Unless you want to talk up Varus's misguded conquest in 9BC. ). The current English nation was formed by Alfred the Great in the 9th Century. This Kngdom was conquered by the Normans(who were doescendants of the Vikings....settled in Northern France....vikings today are known as Norwegians...and they were never Roman subjects. ).

By 1707....after years of battles, and conquests, and succession matters...today's UNITED KINGDOM was formed. out of the nations of England, Scotland , Ireland and Wales. Ireland and Scotland were never part of the Roman Empire.

That is why calling the UK a roman continuation is wrong.

It has more than that.



There are disrespectful and criminal children everywhere.





I guess you are not aware of the fact that most people in Western countries are Christians.




This is what Nigerians do, not Westerners.
They have better things to do than to discuss submission every day. They have moved past that stage a long time ago.




Nigerians are never responsible, it is always the "evil" West.
Yet, they will gladly accept their financial and medical aid.




A topic for another day.




I have never heard of a child in the West that has three biological parents.




Says who?




I guess you have never heard of American or European Jews, right?
Since when is religion a nationality?





The more advanced people lead, deal with it or develop power to be the leaders.



Why are you using English then?
Does the West prevent you from speaking your local language?
your arguments are mostly empty. This isn't a gossip topic. It is factual.
Please the vast majority of the america and European jews are so distinct where they are. Majority of them have their own schools and religion and family life very different from the normal european and americans...mind you, i said the vast majority. Do your research.


Again, the west has already perfected the science of multiple parenthood. If you don't know, it doesn't mean it don't exist. Do your research please. It appears you know so little about the west you love so much. You are quicker with responding to comments than you are with facts and logic.


Again, western countries were founded on strong christian doctrines but not anymore. Their church attendants is alarmingly low. And you could get arrested quickly in the streets of London for preaching than you would for advertising with a public address system. Please update your database of the social codes of these people. America has since long banned preaching in class and in other public places like smoking ban.


Lastly, you said evil kids are everywhere. Please point me where a kid of 9 to 10 years took a gun to school and mass murders his school mates, or where a kid of 7 took a knife to school and murders his friends.

I can give you place, dates and cities plus names where it took place in your darling west. And the issue of gender is still on in America, they haven't outgrown it as you said.
Males still take home a bigger pay for same job than a female. Please respond with facts of morality not not technological advancement or economic superiority.

Actually, most Europeans are not Roman in origin.....especially those in Scandinavia, the Baltic States, Poland, Russia and Germany.

Also, a citizen of the Roman Empire was two track....you could recieve a certificate of citizenship....or you could be born a citizen....and sometimes towns could be awarded roman citizenship(In the Bible., Paul was born in Tarsus....a town that was awarded citizenship by Augustus Caesar in 1ad..hence Paul being a Roman citizen). Most Roman citizens would not have had roman blood as we understand it.

And by your theory of the bloodlines....the Islamic Caliphate could be regarded as ROMAN....Since many of their citizens....were actually formerly under Roman rule...(especially North Africa and palestine, and turkey).

The British people are a mixture of Celts and Germanics....most of whom were never under Roman rule.

One example

"The measures were aimed at preventing attacks by armed gangs who are members of student cults. They often choose examination days to launch deadly attacks against rival members, and Lagos University has had its fair share.

In the past two decades, student gangs that go by names such as ‘’, the ‘Buccaneers’, ‘Eiye Confraternity’, and the ‘Vikings’, have committed violence in tertiary institutions across Nigeria. According to the Nigerian civic group, Exam Ethics Project (EEP), 115 students and teachers were killed between 1993 and 2003. More recently the education minister, Oby Ezekwesili, put the figure at 200 deaths between 1996 and 2005."
