I've never heard of many Britons, Italians and Greeks being described with 'great' as an adjective.  n_u
Really?  Go read some history books on these countries.   You'll see that Germany is obviously the lesser.  I'm guessing you're German or you have German heritage.

Oh, we're basing this off of what they once were, not the piles of slop they've become?  confuseddood;

Yes we are.  Unless you expect to make some minute-to-minute evaluation. They are? Well their history has been more outstanding as far as great people and conquests.  I think they British are doing pretty well for themselves.  It also helps that they have some of the best Universities in the world and Europe.

History only goes so far.  Let's not forget Swedes used to be manly men who terrorised the rest of Northern Europe, look at what they've become now.  The British are doing okay, but Germany just came off its best quarter since Reunification. baddood;

But the Germans are doing better than all three n_u

Italy and Greece are just depressing shadows of their former selves, especially Greece... what a mess

Currently in some aspects.  Those countries have centuries of amazing history, Germany hasn't.  In fact, it helped start two horrible wars just to lose.  Germany is just OK no matter how you put it.

Good quarter, Germany? lol  It's a small feat when you compare all that the British have done.

I didn't say I liked Sweden for it's history, which isn't all that great.

Germany is likely not going to be there in the next 50 years.  India, Brazil, and Mexico are expected to surpass it.
