Britain, once known as the empire on which the sun never sets, what caused its decline?

Mainly because they have too many colonies all over the world, so they waste a lot of manpower and material resources, and they are blindly arrogant, so they lead to a gradual decline.

First, the UK economy is now growing very slowly and there are frequent economic crises, and secondly, the UK's industrial structure is very irrational and the labor force is inefficient, which eventually leads to weakness.

Nationalism arose, and although it won the two world wars, its own strength was severely weakened, and he, after that, was not strong enough to support a large empire.

The colonies are all independent, and without the colonies, Britain has nothing, it is a small island country with few resources, barren land, and a humid and cold climate, and it has been beaten back to its original shape.

After World War I and World War II, Britain was weakened and simply did not have the strength to administer the colonies.

He rose with the development of the times, but also declined with the development of the times.

If the United States is weakened, the results will be worse than those of the United Kingdom.

Because the British colonies in the modern colonial period were spread all over the world, and the sun could be seen in a colony at any time, it was called the empire on which the sun never set.

There are two countries in history that have been called the empire on which the sun never sets, namely the Spanish Emperor and the British Empire. The United Kingdom is a Western European island country consisting of England, Wales and Scotland on the island of Great Britain, Northern Ireland in the northeastern part of the island of Ireland, and a series of dependent islands. In addition to its own territory, it also has 14 overseas territories, of which the English people are the majority ethnic group.
