Crown Control? 8 Ways Britain Still Influences the US
SHARE

The idea that the British Crown still holds sway over the United States might sound like something from a conspiracy thriller. These claims, often dismissed, suggest that the U.S. remains under British control through a group called the Virginia Company, established in the 17th century.

While these theories exist on the fringes and spark debate, it’s interesting to explore the connections and consider the arguments presented. Let’s dive into eight reasons some believe the British Crown still exerts influence over the United States.

The “Secret” 1604 Meeting in Greenwich, London

King James I

The Virginia Company is a good starting point. The story begins with a supposed secret meeting in Greenwich, London, in 1604. The meeting focused on the New World’s potential, now known as the United States, and how it could enrich the British elite and secret societies like the Freemasons.

King James I, who reportedly had the largest stake in the venture, attended this meeting. His investment aimed to seize land, exploit resources, and increase the Crown’s overall influence. But here’s a key point: the Crown doesn’t necessarily refer to the Royal Family.

The meeting allegedly led to the creation of the Virginia Company, which launched two missions to the New World. One landed in Jamestown in 1607, named after King James I, and the other in Cape Cod in 1620. Both claimed land rights upon arrival, setting the stage for British influence in the region.

The Crown – What Is It?

The Crown at Temple Bar

When we hear “The Crown,” many of us think of the British Royal Family. However, in these theories, “The Crown” refers to the Crown at Temple Bar, located in the City of London. This area houses lawmakers and bankers and is considered a central hub for a global conspiracy of elite controllers.

In the early 1600s, The Crown was concerned about Spain’s increasing influence in the Americas. To counter this, they aimed to gain control over the northern territories, ensuring they could profit and maintain their influence.

The City of London – A Law Unto Itself?

City of London

Like the District of Columbia, the City of London operates independently. Situated in the heart of London, it covers just one square mile. Since 1067, following an agreement with William the Conqueror, it has acted as its own sovereign state through “debt-financing,” marking an early example of modern banking.

Similarly, the District of Columbia, home to the Federal Reserve, also operates under its own laws, separate from the rest of the United States.

Adding to the intrigue, many Founding Fathers were Freemasons and lawyers for The Crown. Their presence in the U.S. was allegedly to protect British interests in land, materials, and taxes.

The Act of 1871 – Central to the Entire Conspiracy

The Act of 1871 Explained USA is a Corporation. This is the truth

The Act of 1871 is key to the theory of British control. It supposedly created two separate entities: the United States of America (the country) and the United States (the corporation). The corporation, based in the District of Columbia, operates with its own government and laws, distinct from the country.

Official history says that the Virginia Company lost its grip after the War of Independence. However, after the Act of 1871, bankers and private companies could operate from the District of Columbia, profiting from U.S. government debt. The U.S. had to borrow money from the Federal Reserve, similar to today.

Some researchers believe the Federal Reserve is just a renamed Virginia Company. If true, the United States would still be under British control due to its massive financial debt to the Federal Reserve.

The Maritime Law Claims

Maritime Law

One of the most unusual claims involves Maritime Law in America. If these claims are accurate, the U.S. court system’s reality shifts dramatically.

Officially, the U.S. court system operates under common law (the Law of the Land). However, because the District of Columbia houses the private Federal Government, it operates under Maritime Law, also known as Admiralty Law or the Law of the Sea.

According to these theories, federal cases operate under Maritime Law, outside the American legal system. Some claim this means that such cases follow the same systems as under British rule.

Ties to Ancient Bloodlines and Secret Societies

Founding Fathers

Many theories suggest a ruling elite bloodline stretches back to antiquity, connecting the Founding Fathers to The Crown and European royal families. These bloodlines supposedly trace back to ancient empires like Rome, Egypt, and Sumer.

An interesting point is that over 40 U.S. Presidents are believed to be connected to these bloodlines.

This idea fuels the concept of a ruling elite controlling global resources, with the Virginia Company as just one piece of that control.

Intriguing Clues in the Names

Queen Semiramis/Shamiran

Further clues are linked to secret societies and bloodlines, seemingly hidden in plain sight. The District of Columbia’s origins are discreetly tied to Babylon.

For example, Queen Semiramis, an important Babylonian deity also known as Venus Columba. The words “Columba” and “Columbia” are strikingly similar. Could the District of Columbia actually be the District of Venus Columba, or Queen Semiramis of Babylon?

This is just one clue that reinforces the idea of secret control over the world, including the United States.

The Words of George Bush

George H.W. Bush

A quote often attributed to George Bush Sr. sparks intrigue, hinting at the control a select few have over the world’s population.

Bush reportedly said, “if the American people knew what we had done, they would string us up from the lamp posts”.

Was he referring to the claims we’ve discussed? The statement could relate to multiple 20th-century incidents, from oil scandals to JFK’s death. It certainly gives food for thought.

These theories present a different view of American history and power structures. While they are often dismissed, they raise intriguing questions about influence, control, and the hidden forces that may shape our world.
