Answer:
It´s England!
- From the Hundred Years War, England came to dominate the seas, with a formidable Navy; The famous and traditional British Royal Navy. The French won the war because French ground troops were better.
- After the end of the War of the Two Roses, England organized itself better and began to win many colonies. Looking for manufacturing, England wins markets in Spain, rich in gold from Spanish America. Spain did not invest in manufacturing and only stocked the gold to sell. England produced textiles and goods in large quantities, which made price cheaper. Spain rarely produced and left expensive, so the Spaniards bought the British products and thus England gained gold. This gold allowed England to invest in her Navy. As confirmation, the British had a war against the Invincible Armada Española and they won; Might even require the removal of that coat of arms from the Spanish Flag.
- With money, experienced sailors and advanced machinations, the British won the sea. They sailed in distant waters and conquered many colonies. The British Empire became so large that England owned 24% of the world (today there would be 54 countries under English rule); In the Age, they spoke that the sun was born and set in the British Empire of so great it was, and indeed it was, because the Empire extended by all the continents. Winning many wars, the Royal British Navy allowed the control of these areas officially from 1583 until 1997
- The Britons miss those golden times; The nostalgia of the British Empire, a strong and independent England made a good part of them vote in favor of leaving the United Kingdom of the European Union.
