Recent inconvinient history. They love to dig up ancient “glory days” (e.g., Ancient Rome, Teutonic knights…) and attach them to their image.

The fun came to a stop when the US threatened to revoke free-trade deals it had done with the State and pressured the Government to clamp down on the cable TV provider.
