    Yeah that’s accurate, maybe that would have been a better way for me to say it. Turkey is another multi-ethnicity country, and Turkey actually has the same sort of uniquely impactful presence in its area that the US has globally (with the US’s size and and its geography and some lucky accidents also propelling it to a position beyond just what its natural advantages would tend to get it.) Maybe it’s more accurate to say that the US’s multi-ethnicity combined with its other advantages to produce the position it’s currently in today.
