>>17769944why does it matter how old a country is in the first place?
not some kind of gotcha
wondering what made you start this thread
if it's to dunk on monarchies, you should know that Euro monarchs (outside the micronations for ultra-rich pedos where you buy citizenship) are the most unkingly in the world, being restrained by democratic governments and being allowed a handful of powers
if it's to dunk on them for feeling like they have heritage, well, you could say the same for you guys
you waz revolutionariez an sheet, as you'd say
you weren't there yourself, so your connection to the war for independence is equal to some French guy's connection to the French revolution
if it's purely to go "we're older", then by your metric, sure, but so what? if everything about the US as it is right now was the same, but it was founded in 1976 rather than 1776, what changes for you and for me?
