Not to mention their main competitor self-destructed twice in 1914 and 1939
- WalterBright 26d agoYou're overlooking the 19th century. Germany did not self-destruct. It was destroyed by the Allied powers.
- coldtea 25d ago"Their main competitor" meaning western Europe. Not specifically Germany or the UK. So the point still stands. Whatever growth US had in the 19 century, Europe self-destructing through WWI and WWII ensured US will be the lead in the 20th.
