I would actually kind of argue America has become it's own civilization. It is obviously the daughter of Europe and is entirely based on European philosophy and religion but it has become rather more than that. The U.S. population is now larger than that of Carolingian Europe (France, Germany, Benelux, Switzerland and Northern Italy). Europe has become Americanized through film, consumption and music - sometimes this is grotesque, as with European W***** - even if Europe remains its own civilization.
A stubborn porcupine: heredity & nationhood. Meditate, brother!
