>70% of your territory was Canada and Australia that even today 90% of their territories in uninhabited. It is like setting a foot in Groenlandia and claim all their territory for the "empire".
Most of the Spanish Empire was uninhabited and/or unadministered territories in South America, most of the Mongol Empire was uninhabited tundra, most of the Roman Empire was poorly administered or uninhabited tribal lands.
>We ruled over half of Europe (70% of Italy, parts of France, Netherlands, Belgium, Lietchestein, parts of Switzerlands).
It inherited those, and left no mark on them aside from being humiliated and kicked out.
>And we did it in wooden ships while you already had steam ships.
No, Britain didn't have steam ships in the 16th century. Are you retarded?
>Our Empire lasted for 408 years, yours for 150
The British Empire beyond continental Europe began in the 1580s, and being charitable, ended in the 1960s (although we still maintain plenty of overseas possessions unlike Spain). The Spanish Empire was a completely spent force after the Napoleonic Wars.
