Chapter 425: Chapter 112: The Creditor's Trouble

Expecting the African people to resist the British invaders is highly unreliable. If they truly had such formidable combat strength, the colonial era would have ended long ago.

However, it's still necessary to dig pits for them, regardless of how effective it may be, it can at least slow down the British expansion.

Every country's expansion has a limit, and the Great British Empire, being the world's foremost colonial empire, is no exception.

Population is a major weakness, as the British Isles only have a combined population of thirty million. Among the four major European powers, it ranks last, and with the industrialization of France and Austria complete, a surprising shift in power balance is underway.

There's no need to wait until the twentieth century, as for now, the UK has fallen to third in Europe and fifth in the world in terms of economic output.
