They are literally possessions, with alien peoples, who, no doubt for their own good, are, in the ulti- mate analysis, held in obedience to the mas- ter state by military power. No communi- ties composed of the flesh and blood of the motherland will ever be satisfied with an infe- rior status. Spain lost her colonies because the Spaniard in America would not Le sub- ordinate to the Spaniard in Europe. The only other great colonizing power has been Great Britain.
