A few points:
- German and other NW European cultures share the family atomization characteristic of Anglo-Americans
- Anglo as a term stems from England. England is named for the Angles, a Scandinavian/Germanic tribe that invaded Britain a long time ago. The term Anglo-American reflects the seminal English influence on American culture.
- The English and their descendant culture, America, basically invented the modern economic world and it predates WWII by a long time.
The idea that WWII is why America is on top is a-historical.
