Another interesting question might be, would democracy have developed similarly (not exactly the same, but based on the same or similar values and ideas) had things turned out very differently in the US--had the world not had the example of the US?
I think it would. The point being then, yes, events that led to our constitution were important, but I don't necessarily think that the rest of the world would still be under the rule of aristocracy or monarchy. |
