Yes Nietzsche considered the English mediocre, but he was not a man who respected science. Also Hume was not even English; he was Scottish. Nietzsche caled him an Englishman too, which as a Scotsman myself makes me fume!

Consider advances in science, technology, the Industrial Revolution, the Empire, the founding of America, Canada, and Australia. In terms of influence on the West, the British win hands down. But you are right on a purely intellectual level the Germans probably triumph.

WTF is this thread?
England, "great because they invented the train in the 1820s?" they don't even have the fastest trains nowadays! plus their railroads are very shitty compared to some other Europeans countries'.

And if you expect to run into inventors and scientists in the streets of London, well you're in for a big disapointment. And I'm not sure that the average bloke can even quote two verses of Shakespeare (not that I would want them to, anyway, personally).

And if their biggest achievement is supposed to be "creating America" (they did that by losing a war btw), well that says a lot.

Combine all that with a truly atrocious weather, and you've got a hell of a shitty country. There are much better places to be seen in Europe, and some are cheaper too.

America's Empire is pathetic; future historians will agree on this if they don't already. Attempting to control the world through wars and external power; supporting puppet governments and whatever terrorist/political group supports the American cause. The British simply sent their finest men to rule countries from within. The result was far more peaceful. America thinks it's can act act like the "good guy" and be non-imperialist if it doesn't directly colonise foreign countries with American troops and rulers. They aren't fooling anyone but themselves; they are like any other Empire but with more bloodshed; less control; and more hatred directed against them.

There's a reason they're doing that you retard. They have an aging population and not enough people who are willing to do the slave wage jobs. This is why they've opened up their borders in order to replenish that shrinking section of the population. I've been watching the UK version of BBC News and they're saying they're facing both a geriatric meltdown with not enough moneys or people to take care of the old ones and too few hands to pick fruit and produce that is just left to rot in the fields.
The latter happened because all the Polacks that flooded the UK just a few years ago are fleeing en masse because of the tanking UK economy and the booming Polish economy. There was also some government blunder involved that compounded the situation but I forget what it was.

It's 1.98 not 1.89, and you also missed the figures for their overseas territories (included in the table), some of which have fertility above 5. Overall the French population has grown in 2007, before including new immigrants.
