Isn't this the same attitude the British developed at the height of their empire?

Every country considers themself the best. To say they don't is a lie. The French think they are the best, us Americans think we are the best, the British believe they are the best, it goes on and on.

people are raised in a nationalistic ecosystem. with the intention to sell this nationalism, like maximum international locations, we emphasize our good factors, like how we are democratic (while in certainty we are a Republic) and all the liberties we at the instant have. i don't probable know the place you perceived the theory that we expect of we are greater effectual, or however in case you in basic terms asked this question out of spite, yet here is the respond anyhow. traditionally, inspite of the undeniable fact that, Canada has constantly been slightly in the back of; however if it rather is nationwide westward enlargement, creation of the nationwide government, or perhaps getting out from below the colonization by way of yet another united states of america.

No it is not true. Most Americans only feel more fortunate than most. We are blessed with opportunity, a diverse country where one can rise to any aspiration with effort and a little luck. Even with our problems, America is still the best country in which to live.
I'll also add that the American people (not the government) are by far, the most charitable in the world.

no. the reason being when there are huge wars or natural disasters who is the first in? the Americans. when 9-11 happened no country in the world promised to help America.when Katrina happened no country came to America's help. yet when Indonesia needed help the first on the spot was America. not Iran,Arabia,Kuwait or Dubai. it is not that America is superior to any one. what is true is that America has a very large heart. just ask Afghanistan.after their earth quakes who helped? America. where was Saudi,Dubai,Iran,Kuwait? no where in sight. i thought charity toward the poor and unfortunate was one of the twelve pillars of faith.

It's hard to feel superior with George Bush as our leader.
