America is the best because if any other country says they are "the greatest nation on earth", they don't get people from other countries making baby cry threads about it.
The point is, that I am not aware of any other country, where this believe and its verbalization is nearly as omnipresent. I would believe that in most countries the head of state would even be extremely hesitant to say something like that. Or have you heard of a Canadian politician saying anything comparable?
It seems WWII and the (undisputable) military strength are the main reason for this believe. Interesting, I would have never thought that this would be considered a reason for greatness (esp. the military might). Or would the strongest person on earth be considered the "greatest human being"?
