For all you care, if there was no America, you would have nothing to discuss. It very much is literally that if your country can nuke itself, because it really wouldn't matter to you. Other than getting atomized. If America was out of the picture, however, well, I would say life would return to its boring self but you have not known life without America since the beginning of the 20th century. Countries all over the world have dropped everything from fashion to music styles and food going back thousands and thousands of years just to copy our latest hits over a century ago.
England ruled one quarter of the planet till after World War II, yet the United States of America has done more to spread the use of the English language and culture than they ever could in three centuries.
And it's not even an interesting culture, pretty bland if anything. It's actually best described by what it's not. You look at Southern Europe, you look at Africa, you look at the Middle East, you look at Asia, you see look at South America, you see culture. Up here, you see people who eat boiled potatoes and plain steak and pork occasionally slathered with barbecue sauce while dancing to throwaway music. The highlights of our culture are the 4th of July, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas decorations. That's it. The rest of the year, we're just playing Xbox while drinking Mountain Dew or Bud Light. And yet the planet emulates us.
