crazy to think that over 200 years ago we had people fighting to get out of a region (britain); sail some thousands of miles of uncharted water (the atlantic); to build a new civilization.
imagine if we could do that now? i mean, seriously, if there was a country nowadays that was like, "fuck this, i'm out" and just up and left on a boat, sailed somewhere, and settled and made a new society.
i think it's pretty cool that enough people felt rebellious to do something like that.
