The bureaucracy in Europe predates all the US. Systems of government changed, but hey, you still learn Roman Law in law school for a reason.

The US is a baby in terms of structures and culture.

Vienna has been continuously operating as a city since being a Roman fort, Vindobona = you can see the ruins directly in the city center.

Again, culture/language/people != nation states. I didn't realize bureaucracy meant nations. With that logic ottomans would still exist!

India is a very young country. Indians as multiple civilizations/peoples are some of the oldest ones. Two completely separate things. Shame you can't see that.
