How foolish of us not to think that. Man, be must be brain-dead not to realize this. Of course Charlie's pa stole the land. Everybody should ignore the fact that it is in the nature of an Empire to go and conquer everything they can. Of course it is wrong to steal back that land. Of corse the Empire has all the rights to take (i.e. not steal, just annex, colonize, brainwash, tax, aso) to land initially. They have the army to come and take any land they feel like. Of course if the Empire is weakened for 10-20 years because of a peasant revolution, it is wrong to steal back that land. Come on, who are Charlie's pa to steal back from that Empire? And who are they to even listen to what they have to say. An empire is an Empire and as long as they have a big enough big bloody army to it in the East of Charlie's land there is absolutly no point to argue agains. Otherwise people will come and say Charlie's pa stole the land from us, but we never stole it in the first place, because we do not have an expansionist and ignorant attitude about tiny Charlies.
