How can a country so young become one of the world's top countries?

How can a country so young become one of the world's top countries?

Meanwhile most Arab countries who are older than America are still backwards.

Japan and China is doing fine for being one of the older countries.

>wtf, why does the kids in the gifted program do better than the rest and the arabs/africans in the special ed class
Basically that, since America manage to get alot of smart people all over the world to move there and combine their talents/let their work fully grow with the help of a steady economy. Not including of course certain Nazi rocket scientists and certain Japanese unit 731 fellas.

Jews.

Good stock and good geographical location.

The answer is that other countries fucked up each other, so America won by default.

I-Its because theyre master race!

>12% of the population is black

face it /pol/tards, multiculturalism works because its unifies all the ideas of the world

This.

1914 solidified the US as a world power.

>lmao Americans are niggers
>Wow Americans are so racist and keep minorities locked away in ghettoes

The press probably forgot about the Great Depression because of WW2.

>Gets an economic bonus proportional to size of military
>Cost to advance in Age is 25% lower and happens 50% faster
>Upgrades for ground units are 25% cheaper
>Aircraft carriers are 20% cheaper and all aircraft train faster 20%.
>Every new air base starts out with a free bomber

Teddy, please.

>a country so young
How many countries have older constitutions in effect? How many countries have gone by a single name since an earlier date?

A few.

>single name since an earlier date?
You mean ceased to be a colony and be independent?
A lot clearly, but they aren't in any level close to the USA.
>Mongolia
>Oman
>Iran
>Nepal

Even if you consider those older countries such as Yugoslavia who had split and changed their names and considered to be a new country such as Bosnia, Slovenia and so on.

I'm not sure about the constitutions though, written or non-written? Some countries don't have this thing.

American exceptionalism

mind your own business and wait for the rest of the world to destroy itself in back to back austism fits

War mongering, post war economic boom, ideals of classical liberalism which the Country is based off, the American constitution and so on

>The youth of America is their oldest tradition. It has been going on now for three hundred years. To hear them talk one would imagine they were in their first childhood. As far as civilisation goes they are in their second.

Unheard of natural wealth/diverse biomes couple with a large, skilled labor force and a series of fortunate events in the early 20th century destroying European Hegemony

Fun fact : Canada, Australia, most of Africa and SA countries are younger than America.

And?

It was created at just the right time in just the right location to take advantage of the Industrial revolution that happened immediately after its creation.

are we really that young?

>Italy and Germany is younger than America

I'm guessing it's because it was build mostly by young men, i.e, hardworking people with dreams that escaped decadent europe and really had nothing to lose

Also geographic aislation and a shitton of resources

The presence of blacks surprisingly enough, doesn't negate white achievement.

1. Long term stability: Only one major civil war in the countries history.
2. Land: There was so much settable land that it was given out for free at one point. This attracted immigration
3. Religious freedom: Which means little true religious strife and wider acceptance of different practices.
4. Military expanision: A strong army and navy made sure its borders were protected. Few people would want to fuck with the US.
5. Economy: The US industrialists were quick to copy and integrate the industrial processes of other countries. This lead to the growth of a massive, diversified economy that still dominates most of the competition.
The US is multiracial, not cultural. Immigrant groups are expected to assimilate into Anglo-American culture

Throughout most of its history America was basically China if China was populated by western Europeans and was at the peak of human modernization.

Considering how much social and economic problems have plagued American Blacks, I'd say they've done quite well for themselves. There's a sizable educated black middle and upper class despite attempts to keep them all poor.

>Meanwhile most Arab countries who are older than America
What arab country is older than America? Choose one:

>Saudi Arabia unifed 1932
>UAE independent 1971
>Iraq independent 1932, current government less than a decade old
>Iran consolidated 1979
>Pakistan independent 1948
>Syria independent 1920, currently has no government
>Afghanistan has had like, 4 different administrations in the last century

All North African "Arab" countries (including Egypt) are less than 100 years old, too.

Really the only one that's older than America is Oman, but it was established in the 1740's, 30 years before America's declaration of independence. Oman is a pretty good place to live though.

>Pakistan
>Afghanistan
>Iran
>Arab
?????????????

Fair.

Doesn't really address my main point though.

>a country so young
It's literally 240 years old, you retard.

Also it's because it's huge, full of resources, hasn't been devastated by a war on its soil (since the Civil one, obviously), and has a system that (to a bigger extend than other countries) rewards hard work and innovation. Pretty much everything went right.

Is America the same as 1776? Don't be retarded.

Nice goalpost shifting friend.

Also how old your country is doesn't magically dictate how stable it's going to be anyway.

objective superiority in every way imaginable.

I'm not the same user and I'm not moving the goalpost. I only think that your criteria for establishing the age of a country is biased and favours your argument. The USA has changed a lot both territory and population wise as well as how it rules itself and the place it occupies on the world. Just because it has retained its name, it's somehow a false point pretending its as old as its independence.

>inb4 muh amendments

It's still fucking governed by the same fucking document that it was founded upon. That's a pretty reasonable metric.

Competitive capitalism and free enterprise

Nigger many of those Arab countries are LITERALLY New.

Prior to their foundation there was no such ting as Iraqi or some shit. Just their meme fucking tribes that they carried life on for centuries living under various princedoms and empires.

Meanwhile Ameriniggers have yet to do either any of the following which is the traditional means of ending of a republic.
>Overthrow their Government
>Change their constitution (No not stupid amendments, whole fucking charter change),

Multiculturalism works when there is very little welfare, there's a high barrier to entry, and the host country is willing to cherrypick

Importing uneducated brown people who live off welfare is not the way to go about it.

It's not even the welfare part, or the cherrypicking.

It's just the rate of immigration. It's like Crimea, you send a bunch of Russians there, and suddenly it becomes Russian. Or like Veeky Forums when the population exploded in 2008-2009 with newfags. I'm not even saying immigrants need to fully assimilate, but open borders just lets other cultures colonize you by importing people until they're the majority, and then you lose your national character.

>shit he never said: the post

Maybe by being fucking gigantic and filled with untapped natural resources, settled by white people from advanced countries and almost no natives, and separated by two enormous oceans from any potential enemy worth mentioning?

Diversity. Also because our drinking water is superior which gifts drinkers intelligence, patriotism, integrity, intelligence, and respect for God.

>40 million people in Syria
>700 million in Europe
>immigrants are going to swarm us!
>95 million people in Mexico
>300 million people in the US
>immigrants are going to swarm us!

The invasion of crimea was backed with tanks by a country of over 200 million people and you're comparing it to the current refugee crisis. Ridiculous.

The US isn't even that old in comparison to most European nations. Also age sometimes is a bad thing for a nation. More time = more time to fail. The only reason I would say that the US was at a disadvantage was because of its infrastructure being less developed than Europe's. But the US didn't become a world power until it had a huge infrastructure anyways and Europe's infrastructure was fucked from WWII.

They are exceptional.

Vast abundance of resources - and that's the sole reason. The only other country to become a super-power, the Soviet Union, had one of the worst economic and political systems in history, with rampant corruption and widespread poverty - yet it was still able to win WW2 more or less by itself, launch the first satellite, animal, man, space-station and lunar probe into space, and maintain the most man-hours in space of any nation to this day. The only similarity it shares with the U.S. is the vast land it had under its control.
Other great powers throughout history support this idea. All it takes to be a successful nation in a short amount of time is resources.

Peope who where not content with being weak sheep living under a king moved here and worked hard.

This lead to a group of people who where do it yourself types who are optimistic.

In short we got the best of the best the hardest muther fawkers in history at that time, for about 200 years came here. And made us great.

Just study the fouding fathers, settlers, and inventers of the 1800-1900s to see how we ended up so dope.

All thos niggas where insane and accomplished amazing things

this

>that's the sole reason
That's bullshit though, then why didn't Brazil, Argentina, the DRC, Australia, Canada and South Africa become superpowers? There's obviously more to it than that.

Two reasons - firstly, because they aren't white. Look at the transition from Rhodesia to Zimbabwe, and get back to me.
Second, Canada does not have vast amounts of resources. Vast amounts of land, sure, but not resources. The north of Canada is essentially a wasteland. It cannot compare to the tons of oil that both the U.S. and Russia possess.

Australia and Canada practically are very close to being superpowers bro. They just don't invest in their military.

Your wrong. By this logic how do you explain places like brazil Africa (specifically) the congo and Ethiopia, as well as inda china, the Mongolian empire, Persia, the Aztecs and the Assyrians. Shouldnt the echos of greatness kept them in the running today?

Also how do you acount for the scucess of people who didnt have resources in the past till modern day. Places like japan, Korea, Switzerland, Sweden, Finland, and Prussia, Australia, Austria, and Germany.

Its way to simplistic to just say "resources!" People make a place great as well as technology and knowledge

Mostly off the backs of slave labor. Without the slaves Amerikkka never would've gotten as powerful as it is today.

>How many countries have gone by a single name since an earlier date?
>China and Japan
All those funny sounding dynasties aren't the name of the state bro.

Pic related.

>yet it was still able to win WW2 more or less by itself

No, multiculturalism only works when chinks and negroes know their place on the ladder, to act as our cheap labor.

Also, OP are the children of Britain, and France, and other North European settlers. This is what happens when you don't get colonized by Iberians.

It's not young, though

America's legal tradition is almost entirely derived from French and English systems

America's 'first peoples' weren't some neolithic settlers but lots of young, energetic and marginalized men from the enlightenment and post-enlightenment eras, and eventually became more populous in Europeans than any sovereign European country

China had ideas of nationhood during the Han dynasty codified by the literature and philosophy made during the warring periods, but the idea was more along the lines of 'China is the Middle Kingdom, below the High Kingdom of heaven, but they could still be faggots and we could still kill them if they attempt to secede or revolt while everyone outside of the Middle Kingdom is a filthy barbarian' than 'Heil Taizong'

>Chinks
>Cheap labour

The average Chinese American is richer than the average American, despite affirmative action, shit media portrayal, a lowered crime rate in every criminal and civil inclination possible but okay lol

>No, multiculturalism only works when chinks and negroes know their place on the ladder, to act as our cheap labor.

This is how you get Trump desu. White people want to be cheap labor too. Better than being unemployed

>firstly, because they aren't white
Canada and Australia were both whiter than the US. Hell, Argentina is whiter than the US. They still don't compare.
>The north of Canada is essentially a wasteland
Are you high? It's one of the most oil rich regions in the world you mongoloid.

mass immigration

By being huge and encompassing a largely temperate region that's rich in resources, yet without being underpopulated, and possessing ample coastal access to two major oceans.

>Arab Countries who are older than America
Name One. I bet you think Italy is older than America.

Because the Old Continent was immeasurably weakened by both World Wars, they also possess an admirable geographic location and an abundant amount of highly sought-for resources.

>soviet union
>it was still able to win WW2 more or less by itself
lol

Don't speak if you have no idea of what you are talking about.

>amazing piece of land with bountiful resources
>government was set up and successfully run by well-educated men, who established a tradition of peaceful successions of power
>managed to re-establish economic ties with Great Britain after only a few decades
>secular liberal constitutional republic
>melting pot culture
>attracted lots of foreign intellectuals
>only two land-based neighbors, both of which have been peaceful for more than a century
>collapse of Europe due to WW2 led to US becoming a foremost economic and military power
>has only reinforced its power since then, and become the world's major super power

Literally the two biggest attacks in recent history on our soil have been a bombing of a naval base on an island territory far off the mainland, and a couple of airplanes killing a couple thousand people. We are so fucking safe it's unbelievable. And yet we're still incredibly paranoid.
