That's an interesting point. While I agree it's kinda shitty the UK nicked everyone's cool stuff and shoved it in 1 building. I'm willing to bet if we hadn't the number of pieces that would be lost to time would not be zero
Yeah I'm totally sure the Brits didn't break a single thing shipping artifacts to their big fancy museum. Let's ignore all the mummies Europeans ground up into powder and ingested as "medicine". Savagely eating dead humans with the same mouths that say brown people are too savage to take care of their own artifacts.

To be fair, they probably weren't able to take care of their own artifacts very well ... after having been invaded by the British.
Damn, beat me to it. Colonialism is a hell of a drug.
