This is an ironic article. The country with the most wars in modern times is the US.

Full article, definitely goes beyond “modern times” and it’s not so much about the “amount” of war, but the existential nature of it all...whereas you can argue US’s wars have been more...elective, rather than existential...
As a percentage of territory taken in a war and permanently held until it was ripped from the victor’s hands, I wonder how the US fares historically?
What, with all of our conquered lands and such...
Agreed. Or another way to say it, Russia still honors their past military successes as much as Americans our age and older still honor our past successes. But Russia’s young adults haven’t have been brainwashed by the left to hate all things about their culture that was successful.
