If you are an American, the country’s best decade was whenever you were a teenager, says The Washington Post. Compare and contrast to Serbia, whose best decade is more dependent on your politics and can be anything from the 1340s to the 1960s. My teenage years were, of course, not so glorious.

@miljko I mean, yes, I'm an American and I do think when I was a teenager (1994 - 2000) was a great time in America, though not without its flaws. But I can point to specific political and cultural conditions there, in addition to nostalgia.

@miljko My teenage years were the 60s. Thinking of Vietnam, assassinations in 1963 and 1968 (two, months apart), I'd call it consequential but definitely not "best."

@ReaderJohn Heh, you have managed to hit interesting times at least twice in your life. May these be a tad less interesting than the 1960s.
