The Original Sin of America is the myth of supreme violence as the ultimate solution to all problems. From the so-called "Revolution" through countless wars to Hollywood's action movies and police worship in TV series, men solve all issues with big guns and the correct ideology.
Of course the State is born and maintained the same way in almost all countries. But the USA is defined by its idea, not by a common race, culture or history. And thus this cult of violence supreme is a deep part of the very american identity.

In Europe, the cult of violence supreme was the birthright of the Aristocracy, as descended from the German Master Race in a Reich of a Thousand Year. Two centuries of revolutions and world wars erased that will to fight. To the point that Europe won't fight for its own survival.
