I know, just meming
I think America is probably as big as a nation can sustainably be, really
like, geographically
anything bigger and you get too thin-spread, it all falls apart in a century or two
china is kinda big too
Yeah, they’re doing good as well
its not about the numbers but about cultural influence
west is losing it
Russia is the biggest, and they’ve been in a rut since the 1980s
Canada is second biggest, but they barely use half their land, and their population is smaller than California, so I don’t really count that
America is the third largest, and we’ve got the most well funded military in the world, but we also have zero local competition, so, maybe also not the best example
China is the fourth largest, and they split up and re-conquer each other every couple hundred years, call it a new dynasty, and move on
then you’ve got Brazil, which is basically just tropical Russia with more gangs
Australia, which is the same as Canada, low population and hectares of untouched land
and India, who can’t poo in loo
So, I repeat:
America does big country the best, or at least the most sustainably
Rome was the biggest western civilization
it’s like with stars
bigger stars shine brighter, but they fall apart under their own weight relatively soon
small stars live longer, but they never burn as brightly
America is a big star, and has burned pretty well so far
BUT we’ve only stopped adding new territory in the past 120 years or so, so who knows where it’ll all go to next
yeah, Rome is why I’m thinking about this
and ahd the longest run
Empires
they *had* the longest run
i’m talking about current competitors
i’m mostly rambling, actually, if i’m completely honest
Little sleepy, and just killing time before work
America is the spiritual successor and 3rd incarnation of Rome tbh
Out of curiosity, who do you consider 2nd?
I’m guessing either Napoleon or Britain
Byzantine/Constantinople and the Anatolian based Roman empire. Its an iffy one i know because the greek anatolians always referred to themselves and though of themselves as legit romans, and they were in their own right, the empire had just evolved and they were legitimately the eastern half, but you know people tend to demarcate that as a sort of 2nd rome
Eh, that’s fair
and plus 3rd sounds cool it makes you feel like this time is the charm
I feel like the Brits probably have the better claim to 3rd, then
Former owners of the empire where the sun never sets
now arguing over butter knife permits on an island the size of Michigan
(although, if you consider the Queen’s “rule” over Canada and Australia, the sun still never sets)
if democrats become majority in this country we will also have to bin the knife
doubt
you dont think if they had a chance to repeal the 2nd amendment they wouldnt?
the recall in Australia was hard enough
just imagine how that'd be in America
gun control is a progressive thing it seems, where they will just introduce regulation after regulation until there are no guns left
Fascism isn't racist
It's a worldview of truth
>name is mao
>is a fascist
what
Thanks nigger
