The US was modern England at one point.
The US was 'created' by Englishmen who knew their rights and attacked by Britain (not England) for defending those rights.
England (excl football team) stopped existing between 1606 and 1706 (union of crowns/union of parliaments). Since then it's been imperial Britain. England doesn't exist and hasn't existed for 400 years. "Little Englanders" didn't want an empire, England wanted everyone to be free.
Britain used English strength to create an empire, the reason why it wasn't as horrible as the fnerch or spanish empire is because it was based on freedom.
So yeah, the US at one point was the pinnacle of England/Englishness. That's why 13 colonies became a hyperpower.
To think that the US became the US because of a tax on tea and in 200+ years you've thown it all away is saddening to me.
