A hot take perhaps but now I'm curious -- Is this an American/New World/Big-Ass-Country (I could see Russia/China caring) phenomenon?
A lot of British people, especially when being smug and nationalist online, speak about how their tiny island took over so many other big places.
I never asked a Frenchman and obviously it's in bad form to ask the Germans...
The Scandis ""benefit"" the most from the distortion but never really had empire apart from in the neighboring areas, so I don't know if they ever think about it.
