Noooooooooooooo!!! Do I have to learn God Save The Queen, now? yes, it is your duty to serve the Empire! The Empire shall be back! UK will become irredentist and will eventually be nuked by them Rebs. #Make_Great_Britain_Great_Again #Make_UK_Relevant_Again I doubt that many Pakistani would be happy to be called citizens of "British India" again. And what makes it sadder for them... some of the same people who was there during the independence movement is probably still alive today. #Pak_so_young #USA_much_older

Noooooooooooooo!!! Do I have to learn God Save The Queen, now? Large post ahead NOTICE OF REVOCATION OF INDEPENDENCE
To all the citizens of the United States of America,
In the light of your failure to elect a President of the USA and thus to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective today.
Her Britannic Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, will resume sovereign duties over all states, commonwealths and other territories. Except Utah, which she does not fancy. Your new Prime Minister (The Rt. Hon. Teresa May, MP for the 97.85% of you who have until now been unaware that there is a world outside your borders) will appoint a minister for America without the need for further elections. Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire will be circulated next year to determine whether any of you noticed.
To aid in the transition to a British Crown Dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect:
1. You should look up “revocation” in the Oxford English Dictionary. Then look up “aluminium”. Check the pronunciation guide. You will be amazed at just how wrongly you have been pronouncing it. Generally, you should raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels. Look up “vocabulary”. Using the same twenty seven words interspersed with filler noises such as “like” and “you know” is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. Look up “interspersed”.
2. There is no such thing as “US English”. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf.
3. You should learn to distinguish the English and Australian accents. It really isn’t that hard.
4. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as the good guys.
5. You should relearn your original national anthem, “God Save The Queen”, but only after fully carrying out task 1. We would not want you to get confused and give up half way through.
6. You should stop playing American “football”. There is only one kind of football. What you refer to as American “football” is not a very good game. The 2.15% of you who are aware that there is a world outside your borders may have noticed that no one else plays “American” football. You will no longer be allowed to play it, and should instead play proper football. Initially, it would be best if you played with the girls. It is a difficult game. Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which is similar to American “football”, but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like nancies). We are hoping to get together at least a US rugby sevens side by 2018.
7. You should declare war on Quebec and France, using nuclear weapons if they give you any merde. The 97.85% of you who were not aware that there is a world outside your borders should count yourselves lucky. The Russians have never been the bad guys. “Merde” is French for “faeces”.
8. July 4th is no longer a public holiday. November 8th will be a new national holiday, but only in England. It will be called “Indecisive Day”.
9. All American cars are hereby banned. They are crap and it is for your own good. When we show you German cars, you will understand what we mean.
10. Please tell us who killed JFK. It’s been driving us crazy.
Tax collectors from Her Majesty’s Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all revenues due (backdated to 1776).
God Save the Queen!
Dude, you do realize that in the colonial era and cold war that Russia was a enemy of UK? You don't need to do some Orwellian switching of foreign policy just because USA is UK again. BTW pretty sure USA casts English actors all the time, and you don't want Americans to play real football because then they will use their 4.8 times larger population to start winning it. Like with Hockey? #Make US Thirteen colonies again #wait #50Colonies

This reminds me of a polandball where UK uses his Monocle to see all his Commonwealth Friends and USA as their colonial versions. (old flags) It seemed pretty accurate to me. UK is treated as a senile past his prime, but the IRL UK is still one of the strongest and most technologically advanced ( remember the monocle) countries in the world. I dare say that Pakistan would lose to it (probably neither side would gain a large victory but still)

We are even starting to place into international tournaments slightly semi-regularly (unlike a certain weak island who failed to qualify... heheh) Also correction: #66Colonies We have 16 territories outside the 50 states, so if the states are transformed back into colonies, it would be likely that the territories would also be incorporated as colonies as well.

A bunch of those territories are small islands in the west that could be grouped as one or two. However I grant you that Puerto Rico would probably become the 51st colony IF UK decides not to separate them. (relatively far away colonies have little reason to be part of the system) It's always annoyed me how American's say Canada is or would be the 51st state. Canada is so large that it would probably be divided, possibly using the existing provinces. (save money in the transition, no?)

Well we DO have an semi-intergrated FedEx Shipping network already. 972-int goes to British Columbia (and also serving the Western Canada), 552-int goes to Manitoba (serving the Central Canada), then 432-int goes to Ontario (serving the Eastern Canada). Note: No other countries have a joint FedEx Shipping network other than that EU thing. Yes, I am talking worldwide. No other countries than USA and Canada has been working together so closely in package shipping.
