    We British invented Time

    You (and the Spanish) invaded countless sovereign nations around the world. Nations where people not only understood the concept of time (perhaps not down to the minute, or by "hours") but in some cases had been tracking celestial bodies for millenniums. And then you told them that they needed to keep time relative to some place they'd never heard of, using your methodology, calendar, etc.

    Arrogance is the basic reason your country spent the last 300 years losing most of its "empire" :-)
