    The US was literally founded by taking the land of another group of people who were there first.

    So was pretty much every other modern country.

      Yes, we took the land from the British, the French, the Spanish, and more recently from the Russians, and made a kickass country out of it.

      Edit: I see you Euros are still a little sore about us kicking your asses off our continent, but let’s face it, you’re so insufferable, its no wonder people here literally went to war so they wouldn’t have to live under European rule.

          Oh, like the natives? You could even call them Native Americans, if you wanted.

          Nothing terribly significant, the Dutch held quite a lot of territory around what is NYC, but they had long since packed up before the Revolutionary War.

        I am sorry that kicking the Eurotrash invaders and their descendants off your continent didn’t work out for you and in the end you were jammed into special reservations without being reimbursed for all the land theft after all.
