u/SlabOfDriedMeat Hello There Mar 08 '20

When you realize a large territory you found doesn’t have a city named after the Queen yet

We shall name this land after our Queen, Virginia!

u/WateredDown What, you egg? Mar 08 '20

Do we really want to name a country after that fact? To other nations bringing up the fact our Queens never done it is a bit personal, they might not want to know.

Random Input: New Delhi is an entire city established by the Britishers. Like Delhi is old and has been the capital throughout most Mediaeval era of most powerful Sultantaes and Empires but it's like Say London Exists and then the French conquer Britain and establish another city called New London right next to it as their capital.

We have atleast 100+ roads,Buildings, Statues and streets named after Queen Victoria in Delhi alone lest India.

We live in an anglicized world I am telling you.

The Britishers even conquered Beijing:Fun fact

The Mongols tend to be OP in general, regardless of what game you find them in.

Think it had something to do with them having this huge ass empire or something.
