Growing up, we all probably didn’t realize how strong an influence England has had in our lives. One of the nursery rhymes that all of us are familiar with is the “London Bridge is falling down” and at that stage, it was just any ordinary song to us. When we were in high school, we were introduced to history lessons and classes about colonization. That is where we were told how the Englishman went around the globe trying to find things they wanted to take back to their country and leaving very strong marks behind. Another thing that we missed out on noticing was the language all of us use very commonly today, English. Where do you think that came from, huh?

Englishmen and not just proud people, they also believe that they are superior in all ways and we aren’t questioning that here. No matter how dark or horrid the past is, we can still thank the English for a few things that they have gifted to us and that we commonly use today. The culture of sipping a cup of tea in the morning and in the evening with friends and family has probably come from the afternoon tea party concept of the English. Our staple breakfast nowadays, bread and butter, also came from the English. The attire that we wear today, shoes, T-shirts, and pants is also an English influence. The beautiful and massive convent schools all around our country were also started by the English rulers and do you know the few countries who drive on the left including ours, well, where do you think they learned it from?

It is safe to say that we tend not to notice how much of our life today is influenced by the English coming into our country back in the day. Some of us can have rough feelings about it and some of us choose to appreciate it. However, what we are trying to say is that imagine if these little bits and pieces of the English showcase such refinement, royalty, and sophistication, just how wonderful will be the place where the Englishmen actually live today! We are talking about England and the best representation of England today is none other than its capital city, London. The English were smart people and hence London has not just been a trademark of royalty, culture, art, tradition, and beauty, but it has also been a business leader, an influencer, and a trendsetter for many, many years.
