11. If the US isnt, then who is?
I ask that not to make a statement, but as an open honest question.

Historically speaking, I think history will show the the US was the most important nation of the 20th century. Its been said that in 10,000 years, the only name that will be remember from the 20th century will be Neil Armstrong and Hitler. The context will be America put Armstrong on the moon and defeated Hitler.

But of ALL MANKIND? I don't think we are there yet. My vote would be Rome.
