I see what you are trying to say. However, USA has been around for more than 200 years. I don't know if you meant that in a formal sense or what. But if blacks were slaves here for 400 years...
But my point was culture. America is basically a bastard country. We don't have history dating back for thousands of years like Europe, Asia, and Africa. Our culture is a mix of the African and European slaves/immigrants/conqueres. It's not really about age. It's more about the past components of modern day culture.
How in the world those componets came up with such a wild culture, I don't know.
