Brim over I acquiesce in but I think the post should have more info then it has.
.. Seldom.. It is possible to tell, this exception :)
Again a good post. Thanks your achates
I wish not acquiesce in on it. I assume polite post. Particularly the title-deed attracted me to read the whole story.
i truly love all your writing choice, very interesting,
don't quit and also keep creating considering it simply nicely to look through it,
excited to browse much of your well written articles, have a good one!
this is completely wrong. Uk was by far the worlds largest economy between 1700-1900. China and india were in decline and falling severely behind europe in this period. france fell behind england with the fall of its overseas territories to the british in the mid 18th century and was a weak economic power directly after it's defeat in 1815. Also why are you putting india as an independent country for much of this period given it ahd been taken over by europeans and then dominated by the british. should be UK 1700-918, us 1918 to today
Useful post but Britain was defenetly the largest economy in the 1800's due to the British empire and I somehow doubt Germany were that high up in the rankings in 1925 and 1950 seeing as they lost 2 world wars and had to pay billions back in debt!
