America: Not the Greatest County in the World
Abstract
European countries are better educated, their violent crime is almost non-existent and their People generally live comfortably and maintain a stable government and avoid most conflicts while further building up the country.
America is just over two hundred years old, and our children are educated primarily in the here and now with greedy values for money, power and fame that are supported from the youngest of years and are perpetuated daily by hours of television, poor nutritional standards and an education system that is terrified of teaching real history for fear of offending a culture, religion, race, or gender; in general America is a teenager in a world of elders and has yet to get a grasp on their role in the world.
Americans like to say "we are the greatest country in the world", but Europeans stick to more traditional family values and educate their children about history and culture - not just of their country, but world's history as well. From a young age children are introduced to the humanities through art, architecture, theater and opera. Most European children are required from a young age to learn a second language and this is part of their standard education. Many of these factors result in a better understanding and tolerance of the distinctions of each countries culture; with this they are taught to be open minded and more accepting of the varied ways of life as well as being more caring and thoughtful of the less fortunate and the family unit is protected and valued.
