alt Hacker News> This however is an island in the Atlantic ocean and is a British Overseas Territory.
Britain is actually 3 countries under the control, largely, of England. Britain is the name they use for their empire loot.
They can call it what they like, if they dont mind giving up say, the south coast of Britain? No, then pot kettle my man.
What definition of empire are you running here? Is it the same definition you'd assign to Russia, India, China, Ethiopia, Iran, Myanmar?
Are the Andaman Islands, Kaliningrad, Midway, Ogaden, Balochistan, Xinjiang all loot under the auspices of empire?
What about the Galapagos? Svalbard? Falklands? All loot? Looted from who?
The word's thrown around a lot, it'd be nice to have a definition for once.
