Chamberlain wrote with disgust how the sons of the English aristocracy "disappear from society to make money", leading to a warped "moral compass" on their part in contrast to Germany where the Junkers either tended to their estates or had careers in the Army. Chamberlain's discussion of Britain ended with the lament that his idealised "Merry Old England" no longer existed, with Chamberlain writing: > We were merry, we are merry no longer. The complete decline of country life > and the equally complete victory of God Mammon, the deity of Industry and > Trade, have caused the true, harmless, refreshing merriness to betake itself > out of England.
