I think America is the reason we have the modern world
I’m not American but I realise that it played a major part and everything good we have today.
The U.S. really did reshape the modern world in countless ways:
• The entire entertainment industry as we know it? Hollywood, television, popular music genres (jazz, rock, hip-hop), global streaming platforms—born in the U.S.
• The digital revolution? Internet, smartphones, social media, software, even the chips powering AI—massively U.S.-driven.
• Mass production, aviation, space travel, and modern medicine? Again, America pushed those into reality faster than anyone else.
That said… Europe has its own contributions too. Philosophy, classical music, Renaissance art, Enlightenment science, etc. But if we’re talking about the world we live in today—the pace, the tools, the culture—it’s hard to argue against America being the engine of the modern age.
It’s not about tearing Europe down—it’s just facts: The 20th and 21st centuries were powered by American invention, innovation, and influence.
