Not that The Empire was all bad. It brought order and civilization to large parts of the world. It was hardly a vale of tears and constant oppression. I work with two people from Zimbabwe. They can't stand anyone not raised in a western or commonwealth country because they lack core manners that were drilled into them as children, just simple things like giving up a seat for an old lady or forming an orderly queue. You could argue that their attitude towards non-westerners is racist really but it's cool because they're brown people so they're allowed to be racist.
