The United States of America

>United States >Strongest nation on Earth for 68 years and counting >Highest GDP on Earth >Worth 51% of the global economy >Largest navy in the world >Has military bases on 1/3rd of the Earth >Only country with a functioning railgun >30 years technologically superior to any other opposing nation's military on Earth >Only military that has the industrial and technological capacity to mass produce unmanned drones >Developing a new generation of spaceships >Only country to have been to the Moon >Only country with a private sector actively working in space >Global center of the arts, humanities, education, finance, commerce, business, warfare, technology, industry, culture, politics and communication >Owns the most cities on the World Cities ranking chart >Won WWII singlehandedly >Never lost a war in its 237 year history (Vietnam didn't win; look at them and look at the US now; same with Canada in 1812) >Leader of the free world Don't like us? No problem. At the end of the day, you are all American people. The Facebook you use (inb4 edgyfags "LOL -blam!- the system -blam!- Facebook")? American. Google? American. Apple? American. Microsoft? American. Every other thing on the planet except for putting milk into tea? American. You follow our elections (inb4 "I don't"; oh, really? You don't know whether Obama or Romney won?) You watch our movies and television shows. You wear our clothes. You copy our vernacular. You access American websites. You copy our Constitution and our laws. You read our books, ponder our art, use our weapons, drive the car which we invented. The global economy is based on the US Dollar. Our military maintains bases on your soil. When our President speaks, you listen. You are ALL American people.

    >Strongest nation on Earth for 68 years and counting - And? You couldn't do it without support from other powerful nations. >Highest GDP on Earth - Depends... GDP (PPP) is Qatar. The European Union also massively out competes you and is fast becoming its own bloody nation - much to the dismay of us British. >Worth 51% of the global economy - And the economic problems are rife. >Largest navy in the world - Good for you, but big =/= good. >Has military bases on 1/3rd of the Earth - Lol. Not a good thing at all. >Only country with a functioning railgun - Good for you, you've figured out another way to murder people sat on top of black gold. >30 years technologically superior to any other opposing nation's military on Earth - and your troops are really not that well trained. The general opinion among the British armed forces is that you're all a bunch of trigger happy hicks. >Only military that has the industrial and technological capacity to mass produce unmanned drones - Lol, Iran and Indonesia to name two others. >Developing a new generation of spaceships - This is good, I applaud this. >Only country to have been to the Moon - You mean the one thing you managed to beat the soviets to? Y'know... The soviets... The people who beat you to every other important milestone. >Only country with a private sector actively working in space - Good. However, soon this'll no longer be true. >Global center of the arts, humanities, education, finance, commerce, business, warfare, technology, industry, culture, politics and communication - arts? Humanities? Industry? CULTURE? Lol. >Owns the most cities on the World Cities ranking chart - a quick Google search disproves this. >Won WWII singlehandedly - stupidest f uckin sentence I've ever read. >Never lost a war in its 237 year history (Vietnam didn't win; look at them and look at the US now; same with Canada in 1812) - you lost Viet Nam, shut up. You'll also lose Afghanistan. >Leader of the free world - free my ass Try harder.

    • You lost in Vietnam and absolutely did not win ww2 "singlehandedly" that's preposterous and ridiculously disrespectful and inconsiderate towards other Allied nations.

      [quote]>Only country to have been to the Moon[/quote] Actually, this photo by the Pyongyang Times proves that North Korea has been to the moon as well. You can see an astronaut in the background so you know it's not fake. Sorry to burst your bubble.

        Instead of the traitors posting anti-best country in the universe, or anti-american posts, you [b]STILL[/b] have yet to see anyone call the great United States of America "weak." After such an opening and set up for such, [b]NO RESPONSE[/b] included the word "weak." In all of your childish, ignorant attempts to defame the super power that is the United States of America with posts on the internet, you prove the exact point you are arguing against. You contradict yourself further by posting on an American website and drooling over an American's game, Bungie's Destiny. With that being said, stay mad world. We'll continue to be your savoir for now.

          • Does it really matter if we are all that great? We arent, but would it? Our entire culture is based on the wrong things, and we give the wrong message to fellow nations. Our close allies of the U.K. more-or-less feel embarrased to have had a hand in our creation. Im sorry, what all does it matter to be big and or strong if everyone and their mother hates us?

            • I love how so many of the things you listed had to do with military strength or prowess at fighting wars. Yes, keep bragging about all your aircraft carriers while your poor starve on the streets and you still lack a truly universal health care plan, because you care more about killing other people than protecting your own /American Logic

[quote]>Won WWII singlehandedly.[/quote] *face palm* [quote]>Never lost a war in its 237 year history (Vietnam didn't win.[/quote] So we won by giving up? By that logic Germany and Japan won WW2 because they gave up. Surrender or not it's still giving up.

              • I'm American, and I'll you know that we are most certainly not the arts center of the world. Or at least not in fine arts Also, we did lose in 'Nam. Just because we pulled out our troops before the war officially ended doesn't mean se still backed the losing side. We lost too.

                • While America is one of the most strongest countries in the world in terms of military and economics, it is weak. This is because of there social infrastructure, some want to return to the idolised ways of a 1950s that never was, some want change at a rate that would never work, not mentioning you despicable arms laws and constitution that's too out of date to apply to the twenty first century. You expect too much from a governing that like many is flawed and corrupt. America is too divided to cope. This is the same in all "great" western powers these days.
