It was both....
i was going to say that as well. I think we can all agree, while looking back on it, it was an amazing act by humans that happened to be from America. It secondly was a great american task.
Look at the space race, once the race for the first man in space was won by the russians, the yanks win the first man on the moon. It was a race and they won....So yeah, there is nationality involved as well.
