When you go back more than 100 years, everywhere on Earth was in Malthusian marauding mode and males were primarily military machines. The rate of breeding ensured that.

Britain was the first place to move towards individuals being more than state or royal chattels, serfs or slaves.

Nowhere is far along the road to freedom and self-determination. Chattel cattle is the current status of individuals everywhere.

Your history is bung. The Americans were about carnage and slavery: <The colonial interest in westward settlement, as opposed to the British policy of maintaining peace, was one of the minor causes of the war. Most Native Americans who joined the struggle sided with the British, hoping to use the war to halt colonial expansion onto American Indian land. > en.wikipedia.org

England brought civilization to vast regions of Earth, including the USA. It's fashionable to deny that now.
