Ah England...how many wars have you been involved in? Let me count the ways...
No I'm not trying to be poetic. The fact of the matter is that England has
been involved in some of the biggest wars the world has ever known. But why?
Well part of it could be due to the fact that the British Empire once
stretched around the world. Those nosey Brits...always putting their crooked
teeth where they don't belong!
And lets not even talk about France! If it weren't for the Brits, and yes the
Americans, France would probably still be under German control as it once was.
But this time England was fighting against someone wanting to expand their
empire. How ironic.
Will justice prevail? Or will England get what they deserve for taking over

Don't be afraid to think outside of the box. Some of the greatest people in
history became infamous simply by not accepting what they saw in front of
them. Be daring and dangerous but also be careful of impostors.
Use your textbook, notes, classmates, your teacher, the Internet,
encyclopedias, anything that you can cite as evidence for your argument.
Don't limit yourself because an answer might be right around the corner...
