    That’s crazy it misses out all of the important bits. In the 1830s the United States was on the international stage a relative backwater by the first world war it was a major superpower. Some interesting stuff happened in the middle of those two time periods to make that switch.

      Yes, but those periods didn’t involve them much, they felt sidelined and resentful so they don’t matter.
