Italy. Roman Empire, Dark Ages, Medieval times, Renaissance and then slowly but steadily they've fell into obscurity

How the hell would you measure interest worthiness even remotely objectively?
Some day I'll actually write all the reviews I keep promising...

Re: What nation has the most interesting history?
I would pick Britain as whole because that also includes Ireland and Scotland's history who i am even more interested in.
Re: What nation has the most interesting history?
Obviously. But you don't really know that history, just a tradition.

Re: What nation has the most interesting history?
Well, I know irish and Scottish history much better than English history if that is what you mean but you tend to use sarcasm as your main medium of conversation over the internet so I will never know.

So now you know what he thinks and what he has studied and learned do you?
I choose Britain because that history is the most important to me. If I was going for pure academic enjoyment I find the history of Russia and it's constituent geographic areas and peoples interesting.

No one dare disagree with you. I mean we can't have a world where everyone deserves their own opinion.

Then shoot me.
Short as it is, America's history is exciting.
The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected. The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State. - James Madison

Re: What nation has the most interesting history?
Well, from 1917 on that is. Prior to that it was kinda ''buy land, buy land, kill injuns, war with Britain, buy land, buyland, kill more injuns, civil war, buy, buy land, kill even more injuns, kick latino ass, industrialisation, conquer land, WWI.''
It's more interesting in detail, but from a perspective it isn't really as awesome as that of, say, Germany.
Peaceful agreement and government by consent are possible only on the basis of ideas common to all parties; and these ideas must spring from habit and from history. Once reason is introduced, every man, every class, every nation becomes a law unto itself; and the only right which reason understands is the right of the stronger. Reason formulates universal principles and is therefore intolerant: there can be only one rational society, one rational nation, ultimately one rational man. Decisions between rival reasons can be made only by force.

Re: What nation has the most interesting history?
I'm surprised that Britain got so many votes and Egypt got so few. Don't get me wrong the British Isles certainly have an interesting history, but for amount of written history alone, Egypt should be #1, along with China. The ancient Egyptians, Persian Empire, Ptolemies, and later the great Muslim empires like the Fatimids, Ayyubids, and Mamluks. A throughly interesting history that spans thousands of years. Egypt is my pick.
Re: What nation has the most interesting history?
Totally agree with you
I vote for Greece.
The roman empire would not have existed if Greece hadn't developed the techologies,the art of writting(Latin is originated from greek)
I have to admit,though,that the first position goes to china and greece to and then the romans with the egyptians.
If all these civilazations wouldn't have existed our world would be very different
But due to the fact i am a fan of history i have to admit that all those nations(except india)have an interesting history.
Even America(Independence War),Britain(medieval times-Hunderd Years War,Modern age-East India company) etc

No, I mean your idea of Irish history is based on traditionalism, not history.
