Fair point, but those were different empires, older ones. Obviously we did take them too and you're right, that's what the British Museum is for! The British Empire, though, we made that ourselves. With violence.

Dammit I forgot it's the British Museum. I don't know what the royals own, and what they don't.

It's okay, the royals don't always remember what they own and what they don't either.
