This quotation shows that the French revolutionaries wished for an invasion of England, even before Napoleon came to power. Part of the reason was the traditional enmity between France and England, even before the French Revolution, and the other part that England was covertly working against the French Revolution and ideologically stood for monarchy and inequality, while the French of the time were Republicans for whom equality was not only an ideal, but part of the law and much of post-revolutionary reality.

When the British first colonized South Africa, the area they used was not inhabited or very sparcely so. However, some Black tribes (including the Zulus) were moving from the north and themselves were colonizing or annexing the sparcely populated areas to their kingdom. The British were most interested in Trading so did not have large land asperations. The Dutch white Boer Africanners, in contrast, wanted to farm the lands and use the range for their cattle. They wanted the land. The English policy was that there would be friendly relations with the Black tribes surrounding their Cape Colony and no one should take their land. However the Boers started attacking the Black areas and seizing their farms and villages. At first, the English assumed that the Blacks would easily be able to ward off the invasion as the Afrikanners had no professional troops like the British. However, the neighboring native tribes were not very warlike or good fighters. They were being overrun by the Zulus coming from the North and the Boers from the South. The British Government had a real problem in that they would have to have British soldiers fight the white Afrikanners if they wanted to stop the illegal white invasions. This was the root of the Boer War where the British would be fully at war with the Africanners.

This is one of the best examples of the Mongol Terror Tactics. They had a completely mobile fighting force. They could evade any large army and attack fixed towns and villages, while opponents could not defend all the locations without enormous expense. The calculus was often that it was cheaper to pay the Mongols tribute than it was to even beat them in the field. In this case, the Hungarians settled and a Mongol satellite group—the Cumans (Western Kipchaks)—moved into Hungary and have been a minority there ever since.
