location and religion figure big enough - many would say location is what made america, america, and religion is what it is and history vindicates that
and the same geopolitical situation? in the world? last i checked, Germany, Japan and Italy had much to go with the Cold War going on greatly influencing their nations
economic? whole different era here we're speaking of as well as resource wise, resources are only so good as the people are willing to use them
i'd like to believe Iraq will follow the Germany / Japan model but given the situation there, in the world, the neighboring nations, and our own status, the situation is not as easy to predict given the different circumstances
p.s. the cold war is big
