In two days, we will celebrate that in one of the very rare historical moments a group of great minds got together to write and publish the Declaration of Independence.
In 1776, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith (Scottish Enlightenment) was published.
In 1776, the Scottish inventor James Watt, who drastically improved the steam engine to become useful and triggered the Industrial Revolution.
After that Western civilization ascended and accelerated in a historical unprecedented way!
The rest as they say is history!
