how did they became the most important country in the world?
>>
Because we were the biggest industrialized economy that didn't get fucked over in the World Wars so there was a big economic and military gap for us to fill.
>>
money

Britain foiled their empire by declaring war on Germany in 1939, paving the way for the USA to replace them as the world's foremost superpower.
Britain was losing the war they started and needed the US to save them.
>>
>>214356211
Europoors started bonking themselves in the head twice for whatever reasons. They have a privileged geographical position, in the sense that they have access to both the Atlantic and Pacific. Plus they got to keep their gold.
>>
>>214356211
euros went full retard and destroyed themselves not once, but twice.
both times over the most petty insignificant shit imaginable.

Wrong question. For Indians is 100 times more important to know how China managed to become the most important country in the world.
>>
>>214356292
that is a distinctly pro-nazi take on that subject
>>
>>214356292
>Britain was losing the war they started
More people need to say this. WW2 was caused by British and French bloodlust. They wanted to destroy Germany for good.
>m-muh poland
They did nothing when the USSR invaded. They only wanted to eradicate the Germans.
>>
>>214356379
can we stop with this meme? you think china has the kind of control over the world like US does?
>>
being pussies in the world wars, mostly
>>
>>214356403
No, it is not, and it is the reason why the cold war was a thing and not some full blown war. The US and the URSS did learn with europoors mistakes. And also the reason why a war between China and the US will probably never happen.
>>
>>214356265
I also would say resources. Like for every kind of revolutionary developement you had the resources to actually get a head start on it. Like oil or silicone.
>>
>>214356211
by welcoming the indian and jewish elite
>>
>>214356403
It's the facts. Germany lost their campaign to capture Russia and in doing so foiled their own attempts to win the war. Relating the truth of what happened is neither pro-Ally or pro-Axis.
>>214356405
And furthermore, Britain turned Poland over to the Soviet Union and gave half of Germany up to them as well after the war ended. British propagandists are the laziest that exist as their propaganda is easily disproven by the acts of their government.
>>
>>214356413
Are you actually stupid or has your brain been destroyed from casteist incest? The point is that the US rise to power happened during a freak accident in history, something India will never be able to replicate. However the same can't be said for China's rise which happened during a perido where other states were consistently maintaining there hegemony. So for Indian intellectuals, or rather the average India as well, it is like 100 times more important to study Chinese history and what policies China enacted to replicate it. Do you understand this?
>>
>>214356211
Native resources and black slave labour
>>
>>214356211
Mass plagues. Next question
>>
>>214356741
Everyone had slaves and natural resources. It's mass plagues. Probably a dozen crop plagues/live stock plagues and a dozen human plagues. Our geographic isolation and mountain ranges give us delay buffers.
>>
>>214356741
Missed the most important one, Jewish intellect.

Wow good one.

>>214356900
Nah. It's the Scottish genes. They invented the modern world. Every founding fathers minus one, every great inventor even elon. It's a weird but studied thing. The most possible explanation is when the Romans were retreating and pulling back then during the dark ages a shit ton highly educated people went there to keep records which were brought back out during the Renaissance. "The Irish saved civilization." Most modern western thought comes from those records
>>
>>214356940
No amount of deflection will change the truth.
USA is a judeo-christian society.
It goes out of its way to protect and serve Israel.
You cannot imagine a USA without Jews.

Britain won in industrialization, English became the dominating language of technology. This became even more so after the world wars that fucked France and Germany a lot while America could chill. Once English became the dominating language, it was free reign for America to go past the British.

There is NOTHING amazing in itself about most stuff that America does. It is honestly just the brutal dominance in tech culture that America. You cannot really "fix" it.

Really, in terms of technological progress, only the developed world really has anything that wont utterly fail. China? India? Russia? Dont make me laugh. Too unstable. Europe? More stable, but not as stable as America with its institutions and free market economy. America has a lot of problems but I would compare the economical situation of America with Sweden, there are lot of people in America that are rich and can make things move, same in Sweden (the wealth inequality is the same level there).

If I had to predict who would still be running the show in 100 years, it would be America. China will most likely become Japan 2.0 but in Chinese and way less enjoyable and realistically developed, any time soon.
>>
>>214357034
well acthually if we are looking at who is the most overrepresented demographic in founding fathers its Finns
>>
>>214356803
america was built entierly with stolen labor and stolen land. white people did none of this unironically.
>>
>>214356211
Brainlets will say the world wars ignoring America was the dominant power before the 20th century even started.
Natural resources are everything and after the civil war a shitton of railroads were built which meant the vast resources across America became way more accessible.
>>
>>214356211
But China is the most important country in the world.
>>
>>214357034
also
what you are really thinking of is presbyterianism
and that way you also connect the whole thing with reformation and Martin Luther and Calvin...
>>
>>214357254
natural resources and the large size of the country played a part but they werent the only things, even russia has that. The rapid industrialization is what allowed us to utilize all that.
>>
>>214357073
The USA was established in 1776 and Israel was founded in 1948. America was a rich prosperous country prior to jews coming here.

The term 'judeo-christian' was popularized during the middle of the 20th century and has no historical validity given the fact jews killed the central figure of Christianity, and Christians hated jews for 2000 years. The white boomer generation born during the height of the attempt to convince Americans of 'judeo-christian' similarities are the last generation to support Israel in this country and they're almost dead.

I'd say transexual atheist wins. I like Finland

Nah that's bullshit. We can look at a gdp curve and see when the USA shot up.

>I skimmed but I was going for partially this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_the_Irish_Saved_Civilization

Theres other books but it goes back pre Hadrian's wall as well I didn't even mention that. For some reason the Scottish and Irish Highlands keep attracting highly intelligent people throughout history. Certain places were like that. You got the rivervalley in eastern Europe same story, Tigris river, Rome obviously. It's thought the stable climate and isolation is why

as you can see even its ability to use language is extremely limited. the idea that something like this, a degenerated offshoot of humanity who has lost the capacity for reason, could even be considered a human, much less an equal, is disgusting.

WW2 and Bretton Woods

Unironically immigration. Diversity is our strength. From Nikola Tesla to Andrew Carnegie to Werhner Von Braun to Elon Musk, we brain drain the best of the rest of the world.

Before the Ellis Island immigrations Jews weren't really a thing here.
The only three groups you can't have the US without are Old Stocks and maybe to some extent FBAs.

>industrialized economy
The US is a services economy. All of its manufacturing is very specific and for specific sectors. Namely tied to the military industrial complex.
Extracting oil that you just so happen to sit on doesn't magically make you an industrial country.
Mexico is an example of an actual industrial country. They export the cars that Japanese people design.

>>214365040
USA holds the IP.
Other countries don't copy because US warships would show up at the door.
Except PRC, they have an understanding with USA.

>Britain foiled their empire by declaring war on Germany in 1939, paving the way for the USA to replace them as the world's foremost superpower.
Imperial Britain was well into its decline by the second world war, the empire started on the path to decline shortly after their WW1 territorial gains in the early 1920s when Ireland chimped out, truthfully though their economy was far past its prime by WW2, they likely peaked in the late 1890s surpassed economically by the USA in that time frame, we took the economic power once held in London to New York City. WW2 was the point of no return for their empire, things started to fall apart rapidly after they 'won' the second world war.

Unironically the same economic decline is starting to affect the USA, I don't know if there is a good replacement that has or will surpass us though given the collapsing birthrates of China, if they hadn't one child'ed themselves, it would probably be the Chinese century.

Not sure why 4chan double posted.
>>
>>214365040
This post is about how we became the most important country in the world. When we became the most important country in the world, we had an extensive industrial economy. That we had later changed to a more financialized and service-based economy was in large part enabled by our unscathed and advantageous position after the world wars.
