Two world wars in a span of 40 years helped a lot.

Ohio class submarines and the rest of the world knowing that we have people like Marshall Henderson that could be driving them.

I think its bc of the population, vast resources, and less baggage. No wars in the country, no kings, queens or serfdom. Im just curious how 13 colonies managed to become the most powerful, when England, france, and ottoman empire fell. Also, why happened to China or india? They had biggest GDPs in ancient /medieval times. m


Having the entire world in shambles with America being the only industrial might left didn't hurt.
