    Top one is about Bengali Famine? Or the Irish one? Because I am sure you only meant one of those and forgot about the others.

    My favourite (didn’t make to top 5) is when UK betrayed Poland after WW2 and gave it to Soviets because - I shit you not, that was one of the arguments Churchill gave - they needed Polish soldiers in UK to repopulate peasant villages.
