Re: The British not up to their old tricks of raping and pillaging?



<Snip all>

The British tended not to breed with their colonists, the only "stiff"
thing was their upper lip.

Meanwhile, the Spanish bred like rabbits, hence South America being
full of "Garcías, Sanchez, and Jiminez".

Note the lack of Indians called "Smith, Brown, Forbes or Walpole"

Do pay attention!
