If you are an American you got a whole continent for themselves as well as 50 American States
So it makes a lot of sense domestically not to be interested in the rest of the world the same applies for overcontinental Nations such as India and China
Also the American political system only really has two or three people that dictate foreign policy one of them the president
Is distracted with the presidential election campaign as well as Israel, Ukraine and Houthis in the red sea
Also the United States compared to every nation has been a growing nation and is still a growing nation since its founding in 1776, 1775, 1783 or 1789
Feel free to choose which start date you like the USA in historical terms have had it easy
And I hope it stays that way for them and I hope the talk of civil war with stop it's not something that would be good for American
Ending up like China
Also a very nicely written article
