No offense , but I never realized how pessimistic many Americans are about their country. .

And I agree with Nikola's assessment about the USA. It was seriously flawed from the beginning. Which is something else "American" represents; cultural, and ideological failure.
Believe it or not , but I think there are some similarities between the USA and Germany . .

Concerning settlement. .Germany was a conglomerate of different Germanic tribes all more or less on the same territory . . . .


The USA is similar to that . .


Many European tribes . .

Just that the USA is in the 'New World' . .

And certainly the USA also has a lot of Germanic influence . .

The Germanic tribes on German territory were first united under the franks who took the leadership ( Charlemagne etc . .)
