My countrymen, that is the English, have the dubious honor of inventing the concentration camp. The English have also been responsible for various attempts to conquer France, more religious persecution both inside its own borders and out there in the rest of the world than you can shake a very large stick at, a lot of it related to the fact that people were worshiping the same deities in the wrong way, witch-hunts, conquering Ireland and that whole business with the British empire and pretending we owned half the globe because the people who were there before had the wrong color skin and worshiped the wrong Gods. Add to that colonial wars, slavery, wholesale exploitation, the destruction of 'inferior' native cultures and no doubt baby-killing and rape as well.

Never mind that this all happened many, many years before I was born and even had I been around at the time, I would have had no way of stopping it or even any way of knowing what those territorial gains and supposedly glorious military victories in foreign climes actually implied for the people who lived there. I SHOULD NEVER BE FORGIVEN FOR MY COUNTRY'S COLONIAL PAST, BOMBS FOR ME TOO PLZ.

I SECOND THIS.
ESPECIALLY BECAUSE OF WHAT HENRY VII DID. WITH THE BEHEADING ETC. AND OH, DONT FORGET HIS FATHER FOR TAKING ALL THE MONIES. AND THROW IN A COUPLE OF OTHER MONARCHS TOO WHILE WE'RE AT IT, BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T BEEN EXPLOITED ENOUGH FOR WHAT HAPPENED IN THE 16TH CENTURY!111 AND THE 17TH. AND OH HAY, MAYBE FROM THE BEGINNING OF TIME TOO. Y'NEVER KNOW, OUR PREHISTORIC ANCESTORS MIGHT'VE STOLEN A POTENTIAL FRENCH LEADERS MEAT.
