Default 'Our Colonial past'

First of all I am firmly against Imperialism, forceful occupations of other countries, forced repatriation, highland clearances, slavery, genocide of the aborigines, BNP etc etc...



Now onto my main question, does anybody think that if we hadn't done what we did in the past (for good or ill) we would probably be speaking French or Spanish now?

And also why is it always the United Kingdom that is stained with the image of imperialism? I thought the French, Spanish, Portugese and Dutch had also done similar? Is it because we were so good at it?
