@@dontgivamonkeyz the thing is , most ties to him were severed during the Plantagenets, in which they abandoned anything the Normans inherited from the Frankish Kingdom, including the French language 😅 it birthed the identity of “English” as we know it today (If you don’t believe me, try and read old English…) Surnames, royal titles and formalities in Britain are more scattered than any other country, and it’s funnily enough due to the amount of British aristocrats who died in war because they didn’t duck when being shot at. You know, to commit to the whole “stiff upper lip” tradition. The issue with William the Conqueror is that he simply inherited a vacant throne and was very willing to keep things the same. A Norseman conquering other Norsemen and Germanic peoples. Protestantism and the civil war was the final cut off point in which anything in relation to Rome or Normandy was simply recognition, such as the coat of arms motto or the Roman names for places. Remember royals married other royals in Europe in order for an increase in power (William of Orange)

Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if Belgium takes the cake for worst atrocities committed on a large scale in Africa, although some of the more recent (20th century) civil wars might win.

The "chopping hands" thing was more of an African thing and nothing the Belgians did. African enslaved soldiers had to bring a right hand for every bullet they did not return to the arsenal to prevent the blacks from stealing. What the black slaves then did, was to chop off the right hands of their fellow men, to put bullets aside for an upcoming revolt against the Belgians. Chopping off limbs is an african cultural thing .. not very common in the West

now about present day🤷🏻‍♂️🇹🇷 I will say this Colonialism has not ended..... it evolved. let me explain. before colonialism " ends " the west chose the leaders of countries to keep their interest in regions take france for example. www.ieri.be/en/publications/wp/2019/f-vrier/france-still-exploiting-africa and take me for example. i am from the middle east and here our " dictators" have been chosen by the west not by us and here they uneducate people Historically , economically and religiously because that's what sustain their rule and my country is rich ,but money is nothing for me and for us muslims in general and here we eat we drink and we sleep ( not me i always study and seek knowledge in all fronts as best as i can and am a civil engineer ) even the cattle eat drinks and sleeps. here🇰🇼 courrption is too obvious and we muslims are in phase one and that's " Realization " to be fully aware from politics to history to religion. and every time a Muslim nation rises the west is unsatisfied and want to overthrow the government. Gaddafi,mursi,Yemeni leader Salah , King faisal in the 70s ( he got assassinated) ....etc way a lot i can't go over them all. HOWEVER, before the Arab spring this i admit was not clear to all of us ,but after the Arab spring EVERYTHING WAS CLEAR. we now came to realize misery is built by the happiness of others and our leaders and boarders were chosen and drawn by the west and we must amd will over throw our governments and stop the western intervention in our lands. sorry forgot ( the western people have nothing to do with their governments in fact we are all slaves to this corrupted system we live under " capitalism " or communism both you use " banks" made you know by who i don't have to explain). now about "slavery has evolved" and this time it favors no race only one in fact 👃 and it favors mostly the dollar. we are born to serve and sustain the system and the system milks the life out of us and we gain " invaluable paper money " in return and sometimes we get in debt which is literally an invisible chain in the neck. basically we are living inside bank and the bank choses who succeed and who doesn't and the bank plays with economy and who built it? "the red shield" known as the rothschilds. our muslim lands are the battlefield of the super powers and when you say next time why refugees are in Europe ask yourself what caused them to be there? that's the correct question. Russia is causing the refugee crisis in Europe by bombing the Syrians and helping Assad to kill his people and the refugees are a toy to send them to Turkey and Europe to weaken their economy and make the left wing fight right wing start wars. Russia has an agenda and don't get wrong Russia, china and America/western Europe are fighting for their agenda to who rules who. all of them are trash. now i want to put it in conclusion. " REALIZATION LEADS TO REVALUATION AND REVELATION LEADS TO REVOLUTION " SOMETIMES IT LEADS TO A VERY DIFFERENT R AND THAT'S RADICALIZATION AND THAT HAPPENS WITHOUT BACKBONE. that's why people go far left or far right. because they are weak in character and btw left wing right wing is a toy for the system no matter who wins the system decides everything not the people nor the government. We muslims are in phase one ,but obviously Turkish people has finished phase three. and we look forward to unite with our Muslim brothers and sisters and no islam is not an Arab please don't let me write about it and Arab is not an ethnicity it's a language. the world is Suffering from western imperialism ( not the people unlike you we understand) most people walk with where the wind pushes them am not like that i hope you understand now.
