I love the Roman Empire

But lettuce be real, the impact of the American Empire is greater than anything Rome was able to do

We have total global influence, Rome was limited to a smaller scale

Not even a top 20 empire by controlled land area.

Controlled land area is irrelevant.

Which is more impressive: military conquest over all of europe, or military conquest over all of africa?

Agreed

Land control doesn't really matter if you just control a bunch of land with nothing in it

Its what makes Alexanders conquest so great, he conquered land already controlled by a massive empire, a powerful one at that

disclaimer: of course the American troops were propagandized, drafted, and sent there by the jewish american government, and 99% of them would have sided with Germany if they knew the truth.
but its still lulzy memes

Yep. I believe the real progress was spurred on by the Industrial Revolution.

Started by the Brits and I guess you could say taken to the next level by the Americans (Moon Landing).

Industrialization in europe would have happened anyway though. If we compare the advancement of society of britain and rome, its clear rome was head and shoulders above the rest of the world (what they considered the world anyway).

Not to mention the influence rome had on not only the british but also all the european superpowers through the ages. France, spain, portugal, obviously byzantine empire, obviously also the holy roman empire.

And… take a gander at how big of an influence the romans had on the american founding fathers when the wrote that document lol.

You know, it's just amazing what we asked 17-18-year-old young men (and women too) to do for their country and how they fought in some of the most savage theaters of war. Obviously, this only works when you have the entire nation behind you and the entire industry mobilized for the war effort.

Guess its time for my yearly view of saving private ryan. Hard to bring myself to watch the Beginning. Seeing him break down crying and hearing the guy scream for his mom while he dies always brings me to tears.
