First to build a railway across the North American continent.

Telephone was invented here (by an American, but with funding from our government...couldn't get that funding from the U.S.)

Can you guess the country?

Answer 2

Why stop at just a country? What about a continent? What about what was taken from the American continent? Gold, silver, the beginnings of democracy, the founding of capitalism, people made into slaves to do the mining for them (Europeans), food, astrology (Mayan calendar), All the land taken away from its original inhabitants, all the women raped during the process, all of the people (men, women, children) who were massacred at places such as Wounded Knee. Do you get the idea? The willing and unwilling contributions of the New World (new to the ones who didn't know it existed) are innumerable.
