    • Tim Orchin, Great Britain is the country which always holds first place with Ameica. Our countries worked together to stop the wicked Adolf Hitler in the Second World War, and also Imperial Japan in the same conflict. Our militaries constantly train together on joint exercises with our other allies— France, Japan, Germany, Holland, Italy, Norway, Denmark, Canada, Chile, Australia, Phillipines, South Korea, India, and so many others.

      These times are very difficult, and I am proud that we are such strong allies! We always stand with our British friends.

  • The best ally of the States is India since 1999. Perhaps the writer isnt fond of India. Therefore India isnt in the list.

    The alliance between the States nd India is the most helpful for intercontinental peace nd stability.
