I don't know if this is allowed or if I should move this to lolsogeographic  so mods please tell me

So I was doing some research for a class and I came across an article on BBC from 2003 (so long ago!)  The title?

US and UK: A transatlantic love story?

So I had to click it and it showed a chart of their love/hate relationship from the Revolution to the Blair/Clinton era


Well, I thought it was interesting, so here it is XD

Edit:  Found something else that I thought was cool.  This is about PM Thatcher right before the fall of the Berlin Wall and the reasons why she didn't want Germany to be united

"Another fear was that a strong Germany might replace Britain as America's closest ally in Europe, a suspicion that had been inflamed by a speech of President Bush's in May 1989, in which he had referred to Germany as America's "partner in leadership". Although he later added that Britain was a partner in leadership too, in Margaret Thatcher's view, "the damage had been done". Any power likely to usurp Britain's role as America's ally, in effect to kill off the Special Relationship, was likely to raise Thatcher's ire."
