Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the rise of England as a world power from the 16th century onwards, arguing that the nation's success was built upon a foundation of piracy, robbery, and a ruthless exploitation of other countries. The author argues that England's strategic position as an island nat…ion provided it with the ideal base to wage a campaign of economic warfare against its European neighbors, and that its leaders understood early on the importance of fostering a strong domestic industry while simultaneously weakening those of rival nations. By skillfully manipulating the religious and political tensions of the Continent, England repeatedly pitted nations against each other, using their conflict to its own advantage. The book details how England exploited the Thirty Years' War to cripple Germany's manufacturing base, how it waged wars against both Spain and the Netherlands under false pretenses, and how it manipulated France's expansionist ambitions to its own economic benefit. The book's insights into the nature of England's imperial ambitions, as well as its methods for achieving them, offer a thought-provoking perspective on the historical development of a major global power.
