Stop your America bashing and revisionist history. In the Spanish/American war we did not invade Spain. We came to the aid of Spanish colonies who wanted to break free of Spain.

We are the richest most powerful country on earth because of freedom, capitalism, and a huge production base. The Bretton Woods system, which established the US dollar as an international reserve currency in 1944 didn't hurt either.
