If the US had stayed a colony, it would have abolished slavery 30 years earlier than it did.[1]

Hong Kong would probably be better off if it had remained a British colony.

While I agree Hong Kong would probably be more free under the British, I think Hong Kong is not a good example. They would be best off free, not a PRC colony.
