Well Americans have done quite a bit over the years. Others have as well but you have to know that this show was made by and American TV channel.

And without America the world would be a very different place. Like all of Europe speaking German for instance.

Peace.

Please watch all 25 parts. 3 hours total. Thank you.

Pride goeth before the fall. Why do Americans think they're the most important people in the last thousand years? A thousand years from now (if people still exist), George Washington will be less important than Gutenburg is to us today. This exercise is fun, but frustrating for its America-centrism.

[bluetigerlily]

Agreed.

The obvious bias in this series is a joke.

Oh my god... this is such nonsense the way the explain adam smith... He wasn't some libertarian "laissez faire" economist at all... this is totally falsehood...

@JudgeGrif - How is it "anti-american" to state a fact? The battle of Britain took place before the U.S. entered WWII and we won and it was Russia that took Berlin not the U.S. I actually said "thanks" in my post but to claim the U.S. won WWII simply untrue. It was an allied force of which thee U.S. was only one part. Also we were never at war with the USSR so what are you talking about? I'd add that being foul mouthed is not a replacement for being educated, learn to communicate like an adult.

The top 10 people on this list are all European!

That's what's WRONG with this list!

If it wasn't for Franklin Roosevelt, JFK, Truman, and Ronald Reagan - Europe would only be speaking German or Russian today!

[JudgeGrif]

Gloria Steinem says she doesn't like the list because it contains mostly "White males" with a few "token women".

If she thinks Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth the first and Marie Curie are "tokens" then she is "nuts".

Most of the World is run by men (even Gloria says that). Why the fuck would you be surprised Gloria if the list contained mostly men?!

@WillShakespeare2007 The US bailed you anti-american idiots from Hitler and Stalin. two of "your "European creations".

The fact that you think you could have won against Hitler and the Soviet Union by yourselves is hilarious. You guys wouldn't even stand a chance against Vladimir Putin. who is another one of your "european" creations!.

Do me a favor, please say something remotely intelligent, even just one thing...you pathetic liberal ass euro trash shit!
