China
Russia
Spain

It's strange how you can have a mighty country, an empire, that's rich and culturally interesting to live in, and then they become a regular nation (or a fairly bad place to live in).

I assume you two mean the Ottoman Empire? I didn't realise what you meant at first. Although, the Ottoman Empire was never great, it was just pretty good and fairly powerful. Plus, it did the Armenian Genocide, which was dreadful.

In some ways, Britain. I'd like to think my country is pretty good, but after losing territories like HK and particularly India, we're not nearly as big or powerful.

Oh yes russia is so terrible now. The dirty bastards got rid of communism and now they're trying to have some form of a nation free of islam. And China, wow. Sure wish they'd go back to the Mao days. I mean who cares if 50 million people are killed if people can live under the wonderful slave regime known as communism?

I am not trying to joke. When was Turkey great? They were going down hill when they were still the Ottoman Empire. Then they got their butt kicked in WWI and went to genociding people.

TC, we didn't lose Hong Kong.

We owned it on a leasehold basis. We legally had to give it back to the Chinese. Unfortunate I know, but there you go.

I totally forgot that Zimbabwe and Rhodesia were the same country. Zimbabwe is a hellhole, and anyone who disagrees is free to move there.

Well it seems like Turkey has gone downhill over just the past 10 years but that is just from outside observations.

lmao, by which measure are you claiming that China and Russia "used to be great" but no longer are? How was Russia ever "great" in the first place?

That's not true. While areas around Hong Kong were leased for 99 years (including parts of what is now considered Hong Kong). Hong Kong itself was entirely owned by Britain after the First Opium War.

Well they did have an empire that ruled 3 continents at the hight of their power
Or do u mean great in terms of human rights? If so they are probably the worst in that aspect
