I suppose it all depends on how one defines the greatness of a country.

For instance, do you realize that every human, in every country on earth, has the same basic unalienable rights as those mentioned in the Declaration of Independence and in the Constitution/ Bill of Rights? And that the United States is the first and only country in the history of human governance who's laws specifically recognize, and then protect, for it's citizens, each and every one of those rights, as well as others not mentioned, from governmental infringement? No other country does, or has ever done, that. In fact, most countries today, and all throughout history, have allowed their governments to ignore and blatantly stomp all over their citizen's natural rights, and allow them to exercise only those rights deemed agreeable.

Now, doesn't just that one thing alone make the United States a great country?
