minus-squarefoggy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down2·edit-21 month ago orders of magnitude larger It is not even one order of magnitude larger. Great Britain population: ~67M 1 order of magnitude larger = 670,000,000. USA population: ~336,000,000. USA also has much more than 6 weeks time to do it. And the US is quite a bit more adept than great Britain in the communications department. Kind of their strong suit, actually.
