This ”ethnically homogenous” ”small country the size of a state” stuff is a really tired excuse.

Are you guys too ethnically heterogenous to have hundreds of military bases all over the world, have the most advanced weapons technology known to mankind, and global military dominance?

Are you too heterogenous to have science and engineering facilities in the world? Too heterogenous to have the largest corporations in the world? Too heterogenous to produce some of the best art in the world? Some of the best athletes?

Being so good at so many things, being terrible at things like this sounds more like a choice rather than destiny.
