England, of course. A civilising force for the good of all mankind. Welcomed with open arms the world over for several hundred years, our friendly dominion was universally loved by the people of all nations who invited us to govern their helpless little countries and teach their people the benefits of tea-time, grey flannels and a sporting fair chance for all (which even now we continue to extend to our charmingly uncouth antipodean cousins). We never asked for anything for ourselves, but devoted the flower of each generation to the charitable work of ridding your nations of the pestilence of rubber, spices, oil, coffee, cotton, minerals and other undesirable commodities. Finally we handed it all back to you whenever you asked, and there were never any angry words between us, just the warm glow of satisfaction that a father feels when his stupidest child finally learns to read. > (A rhetorical question needing no answer) Yea, right!
