The British Empire once ruled about a quarter of the world's land and population, making it the largest empire in history.
More than 60 sovereign countries trace at least part of their history to British rule, and most now celebrate a national day marking independence or self government. Because so many countries gained independence, especially during the wave of decolonization after the Second World War, there is almost always a former British territory celebrating its independence somewhere in the world.
While many remain members of the Commonwealth, they are fully independent nations, reflecting one of the largest and most influential decolonization movements in modern history.

Mercurio retrógrado en Virgo
te dice hoy:
“Recuerda quién estuvo a tu lado en todos los momentos de tu vida. Recuerda quién, con amor, curó tu dolor y tus partes rotas”.
Esas son tus personas más importantes a las que debes honrar y cuidar. #Astrología
A good portion of the funny monkey videos are due to a lot of animal violence. Monkeys ARENT pets, and that violence ISN'T entertainment.
