Over the centuries the British power was transformed into a vast empire that Daniel Webster, a famous 19th-century American politician, described as “a power to which, for purposes of foreign conquest and subjugation, Rome in the height of her glory is not to be compared, —a power which has dotted over the surface of the whole globe with her possessions and military posts.”
Tokom stoljeća je britanska sila bila pretvorena u veliku imperiju koju je Daniel Webster, poznati američki političar iz 19. stoljeća opisao kao “silu s kojom se, što se tiče osvajanja i podjarmljivanja, Rim u svoj svojoj veličini i slavi ne može usporediti, — to je sila koja se rasprostrla po čitavoj površini kugle zemaljske, jer posvuda ima svoje posjede i vojne baze.”jw2019 jw2019
