Just went through each table on your link sorting by founding date, and only 1 was older than the US: San Marino, whose furrent government was formed in 1600.
I was referring to current governments, and even noted that revolutions change that.
“Aquisition of Sovereignty” doesn’t fit that definition.
“Date of last Subordination” is closer, but still not correct (US is #3 oldest in this category btw)
Check the 2nd section titled “List of countries by current form of government”. Aka, exactly what I was referring to. And it turns out that the only country the US government is younger than is San Marino.
Turns out that colonialism, 2 World Wars, and the Cold War weren’t particularly conducive to longevity of governments
Uh… The US government is one of the longest continually running ones. Most other countries were either formed later or had some major revolution.
The only 2 older governments I can think of are the UK and Japan
My dude, There’s a pizza place at the corner of my street older then the USA.
Ah, yes. How could I forget the most notorious country: your local pizza place
If a pizza manages to be there for that long… Can you image the country around it?
Listen, I know, but we here are just getting so fed up with American exceptionalism. Especially in the Trump empire timeline.
There are plenty older https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_modern_sovereign_states_by_date_of_formation
Are there?

It’s the 22nd oldest country
Not according to that wikipedia page
Literally where I got that information
Your reading comprehension is lacking.

My dude I ain’t reading all that, you’re putting way too much energy into this interaction
That makes it pretty clear why you’re wrong. You’re too lazy to read what you were quoting. Be better.
Lmao sure thing bud
