England has better dental care than America. The myth of British people having bad teeth is just one of those weird things to American media does along with making out like France have never won any wars ever.
To my knowledge, the French have won only 2 wars. One being against themselves (impossible for them to lose) and one in which they helped a british colony against the british because they were tired of their rule (The American revolution). Seeing as one was impossible for them to lose, they have really only won 1 war, even then they we're just helping out the Americans (although we did need it, technically they were only helping. Also, I MAY have forgotten some, but i'm pretty sure those are the only 2)
How far back do you wanna go?

1066 Invasion of England, William the Conqueror won the entire country.

Multiple wars between England and France, most of which France wins

1337-1453, The Hundred Years War, eventually France expells the English claim to the throne in favour of a French one

1510-1513, The War of the Holy League, all of Europe gangs up against France (actually mainly England and a whole bunch of Italians), France wins when the Pope dies and the League is disbanded

1557-1560, Mary Queen of Scots and her Spanish husband cause another Anglo-French war, France wins, taking back Calais, which was all they had left on the French mainland

1755-1763, Seven Years War, basically the first time they lost something significant in nearly seven hundred years, set the stage for...

1779-1783, The American Revolution, which they fought on the winning side of.

1789-1802, French Revolution, you already mentioned them winning.

1802-1815, Napoleon basically owns Europe for a period of at least ten years. Mainly through military conquest.

Maybe it's just me, but eight hundred years of militaristic dominance in Europse doesn't really spell 'cheese eating surrender monkeys' to me, despite what the Simpsons and most of America and Britain may think.
I would like to point out that a)1066, the Norman invasion of England, was not a French victory but a Norman one, in fact William the Conqueror died fighting the french and b) Mary Queen of Scots did not lose Calais she was never Queen of England, you're thinking of Mary Tudor (Mary I) and her husband Philip II of Spain and c) Holy League also included the French it was an internal war between Catholics and Protesants which other countries joined in one. However France does have a proud military history and many military words are french e.g. chevron

Sorry if someone else has already said this and my pickiness but I'm a history nerd

So what is mountain dew exactly? I apologise profusely for having never tried it.
It's caffeinated pee in a can
looks like it, smells like it, but tastes like caffeine
and Americans (from what I've observed) are addicted to that drug (yes caffeine is a drug)

*shrugs* the only things I have caffeine in are things I can't really help (chocolate, tea, etc.) but Mountain Dew is just caffeine in a can, nothing more nothing less (with some lemon-lime flavor, and it's also caffeinated [bubbly])

We forgive you for overtaxing us, using salutory neglect as an excuse for leaving the colonies defenseless, and invading us (specifically, the War of 1812) after we had been separated for about thirty-five years.

What is better dental care? The ability to let someone go into one's mouth with sharp, torturous tools and scrape around holes in one's teeth asking if indeed it hurts? You can have it.

As for Mountain Dew? Yes, it was brilliant, and you are welcome for that. However I would recommend watching your consumption intake. Rumor has it that it lessens the mass of objects that one would like to keep um... well... their current size.

As for the tea? We are not sorry for that. I was there dressed as a Native American dumping loads of tea into rapidly color-changing Boston Harbor. It was a blast. I am sorry it inconvenienced you though. The lack of tea for all you chaps must have been frightening.

There's actually an even better version of it that we keep to ourselves. It's called Sun Drop. If you're ever able to get your hands on it, I suggest you try some.

The rumor? Yes, the rumor in elementary schools all around the nation. I remember hearing that back in the 80's. I assure you that Yellow #5 has been thoroughly researched and it doesn't have any effect on... that area. Spreading that rumor is just something that elementary school children do.

Most importantly, I would like to thank you for bringing Mountain Dew to our shores.

I might be late in finding these bottles in our shop fridges, but I don't care. Thanks, these are some bloody good beverages.

I don't know how long Mountain Dew has been stocked in our shops but if you haven't tried any then I suggest you find some.
We used to sell mountain dew a long time ago, also the crap we get over in England is not the same as what is on sale here.
Unless we finally got


and not



Signed.

An Englishman in America slipping on Mountain Dew.
It was the bottled 'Dew that I tried. I guess I need to hunt me down some tinned Mountain Dew if that's the better.
Canned Mountain Dew is the nectar of the Gods.

I never realized we were hoarding the good stuff for ourselves. Makes sense, though.

Well I'm glad we need the rest of the world's forgiveness. Because I SO remember asking for it.

Anyway, I'm waiting on Canada's apology for Justin Bieber.

Tick-tock Canada, tick-tock.
