Is this country Russia? . . . No

Red China ? . . . No

Great Britain ? . . . Wrong Again

USA? . . . Hardly

 

Give Up? Well, don't feel too bad if you are unable to identify this global

superpower because this country no longer exists. It has vanished. These

are the American military forces that have disappeared since the 1992

election.

 

Sleep well, America.
