Imagine how much better North America could have been if it had been colonized by Frenchmen or Russians instead of Anglos

How is North America not like Brazil?

How is this nonsense even allowed on a History board? Haiti is the worse shithole on the planet because it was French. The best nation in the world, despite the elites desperation to destroy it, is the USA.

The French didn't have the potential to create a continent spanning state like the U.S. Fuck all settlers, feudalism & pyramid schemes, a policy regarding the Indians that wasn't very sustainable because they were dropping like flies, colonies didn't have much for autonomy, strong english rivals.
And the Russians are just a non starter. They got into the race in the 18th century for the love of God.

Would have been inconsequential without Anglo Protestants at the helm.

I'm all for the restoration of traditional monarchies in the Americas.

Anon, all of the most prosperous former colonies in the world are former Anglo colonies and it isn't even close. Britain basically gave US a head start on modernity over the rest of the world just by virtue of shared language and culture nevermind investment. The world would have been so much better off if it were just dominated by the British.

Russians tried that lol, they got their asses handed to them.
Also if you want a look at what Russian overseas colonies would be like just take a look at quality of life in any of their asian lands, hell just look at anywhere but Moscow and St Petersburg, even their euro lands are broke miserable shitholes

Russians massively scaled back(arguably abandoned) their colonial goals due to constant native resistance, to the point that they ended up deciding Alaska was more trouble than it was worth and selling it. Sure they beat the natives in most major open battles like everyone but they were completely unable to subjugate or eradicate them like everyone else did, and like they were very clearly planning to do
