One difference is that the US is a mixture of all the worlds people's. Is there a historic world power as diverse?

There are many differences, is this a difference that will reverse a historic trend of world powers rising and faliing, of waxing and waning?

Will the diversity within the US enable it to pull together as a nation, overcome infighting, and out innovate China with it's plethora of phone and EV types, overnight pprototyping, on demand cheap bulk bespoke pharma production, etc?

Rome?

Is there any legitimate evidence to this being a benefit?
