England had a nascent colony in Virginia, but Cromwell won already developed colonies in the Caribbean, bringing England much wealth and the beginnings of a Commonwealth.

You are confusing the republic called the Commonwealth of England, Scotland and Ireland (which ran for 11 years between 1649 and 1660) and the Commonwealth of Nations (formed in 1931) which is an intergovernmental organisation of 53 member states that are mostly former territories of the British Empire.

Cromwell was a psychopathic butcher and a tyrant.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Whatever, bruh.

When you admit that Cromwell is the Abraham Lincoln of the UK, we can talk about history.

The only people who would even question Cromwell's myriad accomplishments and humanitarian policies are filthy potato eating scum. Cromwell fought a purely defensive war, saved the nation, and civilized a race of barbaric ingrates who still bite the benevolent hand that feeds them, even from beyond his grave.

Late Neolithic early bronze age Europe.
The time of stone circle building and the beginnings of an agricultural society.
