    I once read a profound epithet on a gravestone in Middle England. Its sentiment was from an old veteran when talking of the English, Welsh, Scottish and Irish.
    It reads, “In the streets and in the taverns they’d mock each other till they were blue in the face, but in the fields of victory and, sadly, under them, they would die hand in hand, forever bound by what their fair isles stood proudly for. Freedom, Peace and brotherhood for all. Indeed somewhere under the grounds of Normandy there lies Irishmen with Englishmen and Scotsmen with welshmen, all facing the same way, in the direction of hatred and evil. Never be in any doubt that when confronted with a monstrous evil, our blessed isles in the north of Europe shall rise as one”.

      The Allied nations could not resist against the strength of the German army, that's why they begged the US to enter the war. Who came in 1944 - just as the war was basically done and disgracefully took all the credit for the victory. When in reality we should thank the Soviets for the freedom we have today and for your stupid little anthem.

      First Delivery Of course, I don't deny that. It could have happen. But you can take that same argument and apply it to all the conflicts that happened in human history. There has been worse countries than the Soviet Union and the UK is definitely up there as one of the cruelest countries in the history of the world. The reality is that nearly 20 million soviets souls were lost in WW2 fighting for a common cause. I really doubt we would have any kind of freedom if Germany had won.

      thomas cochrane He was dismissed from the Royal Navy in 1814 following a controversial conviction for fraud on the Stock Exchange. He helped organise and lead the rebel navies of Chile and Brazil during their respective successful wars of independence through the 1820s. While in charge of the Chilean Navy, Cochrane also contributed to Peruvian Independence through the Freedom Expedition of Perú. He was also asked to help the Greek Navy but was prevented by events from having much impact.
      In 1832, he was pardoned by the Crown and reinstated in the Royal Navy with the rank of Rear Admiral of the Blue. After several more promotions, he died in 1860 with the rank of Admiral of the Red, and the honorary title of Rear-Admiral of the United Kingdom.
      His life and exploits inspired the naval fiction of 19th- and 20th-century novelists, particularly the figures of C. S. Forester's Horatio Hornblower and Patrick O'Brian's protagonist Jack Aubrey.

    If I should die, think only this of me:
    That there's some corner of a foreign field
    That is for ever England. There shall be
    In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
    A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
    Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam,
    A body of England's, breathing English air,
    Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.
    And think, this heart, all evil shed away,
    A pulse in the eternal mind, no less
    Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given;
    Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day;
    And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness,
    In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.

    Brits, true Brits never forget their devotion to their country. It is always there in the background. The patriotism hangs in silence, much like the mist upon a green English hill on a British autumnal afternoon. We will always remember our love for our country no matter what evil forces happen to be at play to distract us from this. When the time comes for strength, power and defence of Britain and her ideals we will always be there, ready and waiting to fight and defend the cause. That is what it means to be British, and in the modern era this can get lost in the distance, much like a small flame on a matchstick. But it is still a flame that is still alight, no matter how dim it may seem. All it requires is a tinderbox and once again British people will rise in defence of our nation, and we will defend her against whatever force threatens her. Remember this and remember it always and we will always have a country we recognise and a country we can call Great Britain. Each and everyone one of us has this duty and it is between us and within us that the fabric of this nation exists, and it will exist for generations to come as long as we galvanise the spirit of being in love with ones country and owing to defend her at every opportunity. May god protect us and our country, forever and always.

We are either part of its history or we plan to be, but we are all its future. We must unite. We must not be divided. We must keep the traitors shut up and we must be bold. The enemy is close outside and deep within. Yet we must be resolute. We must be like Britain herself. Britannia paves the way for how we should act. We must stand against the invaders time and again, like Britain withered under the Blitz. Britain won in the end. We will win in the end. We will win. Because we have our country close to our hearts.

    I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
    Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love;
    The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
    That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
    The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
    The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
    I heard my country calling, away across the sea,
    Across the waste of waters, she calls and calls to me.
    Her sword is girded at her side, her helmet on her head.
    And around her feet are lying the dying and the dead;
    I hear the noise of battle, the thunder of her guns;
    I haste to thee, my mother, a son among thy sons.
    And there's another country, I've heard of long ago,
    Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
    We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
    Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
    And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
    And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace.
    ...Goodnight, Sweet prince. May we die with a roar, not a whimper.

      ​@@williammorley2401todays Britian sadly is only a shadow of its former self. We no longer have the strength to be a global power on our own and leaving the EU and abandoning the european project alongside of brutal and rude mockerys and insults towards Europe on the side of the brexitears felt like a betrayal to many europeans. And brexit has proven to be an evonomical suicide which has destabalised the nation to the edge of splitting up, while the EU is stronger and more united than ever thanks to the war in Ukraine, the corona pandemic and to a limited degree the desaster that brexit proved to be. So there is little to be said about modern Britain except of mockery and jokes, despite all the great things our country has achieved.

    Isn't this just one of the world's most patriotic songs regarding the greatness of a great country. As a Filipino-Canadian with two British relatives, this song always hits me deep. Long live the UK and may God bless always you brilliant chaps.

    The negative thinking men and women of our fair nation shall never overtake the men women, and children who wake up in the morning with hope in their hearts, and a duty to serve their Queen. For in their eyes and the eyes of others, there is no place for squabbles over religion, economy, race or politics. Simply a solid and eternal pride, that shall never disappear.
    God bless the United Kingdom

    They waited nervously in the trenches, brothers and friends to their sides. When the whistles blew, each young man, fighting for God, King and country elevated themselves out of the trenches and watched as their brothers and friends were slain before them, until it was them being watched as they became the fallen. R.I.P to the very bravest of men from the Battle of Somme.
