Wrong! America lost the war of 1812 against the British and Canadians. The Biritsh burned down the white house in 1815. That was after Americans gave up trying to invade.

Im not trying to start up any shit here between nations! Just get your facts straight before arguing.

Apparently the burning down of the white house isn't taught in US schools?

It is, it's just forgotten. We prefer not to talk about these things. We got lots of dirty secrets we don't talk about.

No shit dumbass! Actually were were established as a nation in 1867.

But everything above U.S. was owned by Britain. We were apart of the Britain colonial empire.

It wasn't rebuilt until 1815 though, why wait 3 years?

Other than that, the West wing was added in 1901, and the Presidents office being remodeled into the Oval Office in 1909.

The only time the place was completely rebuilt after that was during 1948-52 when it was deemed "structuarly unsound".

Now I'm no historian, I know fuck all about history, but most of the events I have found from US sources seem to be extremely biased towards the US, and this -

Dude, that's where Cap'n Kirk was born, and where his farm is and in Star Trek "Generations" he.... he... ... what?

Fine, it's also where the Political party primaries first occur, which can often show who the likelier canidates to be the official party canidate will be.

Yeah, they torched the White House, but the war as a whole was a stalemate.

Vietnam we lost.

Korea was a stalemate.

The gun kata treats the gun as a total weapon, each fluid position representing a maximum kill zone, inflicting maximum damage on the maximum number of opponents while keeping the defender clear of the statistically traditional trajectories of return fire. By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increase to lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.
