The internet was not invented,  it evolved.

Everyone knows that Scotland invented the modern world.  http://www.amazon.com/How-Scots-Invented-Modern-World/dp/0609809997

What the hell do you mean by 'we'? Did you help invent those things? As the third biggest population in the world and the biggest population of the western world by far, it shouldn't come as a surprise there are some very inventive people there. Doesn't change the fact that the average IQ in the US is below 100.

The internet was originally invented by the US Military in case of a Nuclear war for communication purposes. The world wide web was invented by a European. I stand corrected on the automobile and was misinformed in business school:

AUTOMOBILE FIRSTS

Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot (1725-1804) 1769 STEAM / Built the first self propelled road vehicle (military tractor) for the French army: three wheeled, 2.5 mph. France

Karl Friedrich Benz (1844-1929) 1885/86 GASOLINE / First true automobile. Gasoline automobile powered by an internal combustion engine: three wheeled, Four cycle, engine and chassis form a single unit.  Germany Patent DRP No. 37435

America doesn't invent shit; it just makes everything that already exists better.

"americans" came and come from all over the world, so there are genes mixed in from everywhere. There are really smart people allmost everywhere as there are people that are half braindead. Many smart and successful people live and work in the US, because of the fact that there are more choices at least for the "right" kind of people. I'm sure that a crack whore in east La or a pregnant teen girl who can barely read and write feel very differently.

Hong Kong - 107

China - 100

Hong Kong is not a country.

It hasn't been since the British relinquished control; and even then it was a merely a territory of the UK.
The British took over and set it up as a big center of capitalism; and so all the more intelligent people were drawn to it.
This is comparing the average IQ of a cosmopolitan trade center to rural countries.

Also, the average IQ of the general populace doesn't mean much; because most people never do anything with those 3 points.
In practical application, a high average IQ amongst the general populace means an efficient, stable society,
with a well-functioning infrastructure. Once the average starts dropping below 90 you have, well, despotism.

What matters, in terms of revolutionary invention, are the creative-geniuses.
I'm talking about the revolutionary inventors of things we take for granted-

automobiles, helicopters, airplanes, televisions, radios, internet, etc.
All these things were invented by occidental men, as 90% of inventions are.
The impressiveness of this fact, is compounded with the fact that occidentals are a small minority in the world.
People that create such things are unique individuals, born in less homogeneous free societies.

This list shows that European inspired countries as a whole average the highest IQs in the world.

Kind of like a naive young teenager of a nation, next to Britain's pessimistic and cynical old man. We watch your president and laugh. We watch your simplistic Hollywood dialogue and laugh.
