they share alot of similarities to the SS of nazi germany sleeping:

The British Empire at its height could be a good ocmparision, Of Course the single largest empire to ever exist was the MOngolian Empire of the early half of the last mellenium. The Wrath Of Kahn.

Canada shares a lot of similarities with shut the hell up

eek:

PS I looked it up, the correct abbreviation is USSS, for United States Secret Service.

the_finger: calmdown:

Secret service agents should get lightning bolts on their collors? oOo:

rofl thats another one to add to the collection rock:

...

Our innovations and technology are the envy of the world. some, but not all. Other countries have technology that is as advanced or more so.

Our systems of government and law are the standard for sucess in the modern world. your systems of government & law are copied from British/Greek/Roman

Our attitudes and styles are adopted in every corner of the planet. There's a few wiggas in Europe but I doubt many people in Russia, South America or Asia care too much about the latest series of friends.

Our troops march arcoss the planet as one of the most respected and feared armies in the world. technologically perhaps, but they are far from infallible & still got beaten by a buncha NVA with AK47s & black pyjamas

Our language is taught in more countries than any other. Your language is English, that is my language not yours.

Our culture and lifestyle is the embodiment of wealth and prosperity. Scandinavia has a higher health & age rate


Consider this: At the height of its power Rome had 120 million people within its borders. Bringing those peoples cultures and traditions into itself and including them into Romes culture. No place on earth has such a thing ever hapened on such a grand scale until the late 1700s, and what is today the US. The British Empire was bigger

Here is anouther interesting similarity: The Roman empire developed the most complex and diverse tradding network on the planet. They did not grow most of there own food, they had to have it imported. The US has done the same thing. So did Germany & Britain

Our language, our numbers, our money, even our government is based on Rome. Like Rome we have had our Civil War based on government power and economic structure. So did England, & Rome was based on Greek civilisation


Like Rome we see ourselves as the saviors of Earth. rofl rolleyes:

Just as Romans we are veiwed the world over as wealthy and pompous. After this post maybe

And just as Alexander councoured Persia 2300 years ago for trade rights, the same has been said of Bush and his war for oil. The same can be said for many other countries

... oOo:

Bravo Fluffy_Bunny

I guess that's against the rules.

HOORAH FOR AHMURIKA

All I see is a bunch of country envy.

Prior to the early 1900s - when America really started becoming a world power - the preferred language of business and trade was French. Britain gave us the English language, we (after butchering thoroughly) gave it to the world.

Show me three countries with a higher GDP than America.

How many countries have our resources?

I can think of one army that could stand up to our own, and that is only because it has more people than we have bullets and bombs.

We didn't lose the Vietnamese war, support for it fell apart thanks to - gasp - Liberals and the government started withdrawing its support as well. I can't remember and I'm too lazy to look, but I think NVA/VC to US casualties were something like 15/1. If support hadn't disappeared, we'd have won by their surrender or the total genocide of the Vietnamese people.

Which country nearly doubles the amount of money contributed by the second largest contributer to the UN?

Which country provides more than double the amount of aid to other countries than the second largest contributer?

Which country contributes more than 15 times the amount of aid that is the average contribution of the 25 most wealthy nations?

Which country's economy literally sets the tone for the world economy?

I won't even continue on with the things which can be considered subjective, these are the hard facts alone...
