There's absolutely nothing wrong with putting the United States at the top of 'select your country' lists.
I can't be the only one tired of alphabetical lists where you have to scroll past fucking Monaco and Uganda to find the largest English speaking economy in the world. Hell, let the UK and Canada share the top with us, I'm even fine with putting China up there. Just end this nonsense where I have to scroll past microstates, developing nations where 90% of the population doesn't have internet, and half the world to find my country.

The original six frigates of the U.S. Navy were constructed for $688,888.82. How did that number come about? More broadly how did the U.S. government plan and budget in the early days of the Republic?
I work for a defense contractor, and this type of history fascinates me. I've read Ian W. Toll's book Six Frigates and it doesn't go into detail about this other than to say it was a "then-colossal sum" to be appropriated.
