The difference is that Great Britain made no pretense that we were equal and had an equal say in matters. The Northern States‚ having the majority in Congress‚ claim the same power over us in legislation as the British Parliament did.

I was born in a country where basketball was not so popular. It was mostly for the rich people‚ because they were the ones that could afford paying lots of money to the coach‚ and the team to be able to play and learn the game. Since there wasn’t too many basketball coaches in Iran‚ we didn’t have many basketball teams for different age groups.
