what's your favourite dominion of the british empire, guys?

financeguy, i hope you answer first.

but for the rest of us, what's your favourite overseas possession of the glorious british empire?

you can really go one of two ways... the typical canada, australia, new zealand, india, south africa... or perhaps the lesser known colonies such as barbados, rhodesia, and the falkland islands.

also, which is your favourite flag from that era? in order to be fully considered, please remember that the union jack must be represented either in full or in the top left canton of the flag.

also, my sources tell me kieran mackonvil is "really" cecil rhodes.

I like England, not the British empire.

Anyway this a nice tune:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdVTcIb4xaI&feature=watch_response

Princes and lawyers played with the English elite
Years of repression started a noise from the streets

CHORUS:
The age of revolution, the age of revolution
from Bangalore to Kingston, the age of revolution
Go and get your pads on, take your place in the sun
from Bangalore to Kingston, the age of revolution

It's the age of revolution... It's the age of revolution

Mankad in Madras, but suddenly Sunil is king.
Kids in the valleys, bats bound together with string, oh yeah!

"Time to take the new ball, the dollars and the rubles.
Stormont to the Oval, we're all going global."

CHORUS

It's the age of revolution... It's the age of revolution
It's the age of revolution... It's the age of revolution

Here's to the future, Punjab and Tamil Nadu.
Always remember the passion of '32, oh yeah, yeah!

"Always denied entry by the English gentry.
Now we're driving Bentley's playing 20/20"
