If this thread is going to be credible, at least request sourced reasons.
If you're going to say historically, I think this thread is currently ill-equipped to have a poll.
Create a thread asking for comments on historical atrocities.
Wait a couple of days and then offer the poll w/ verified instances of "racism."
Also, when you say racism, are you speaking about racism against blacks? Racism towards any particular group? Are you saying the most "racist country" or the "country with the worst history of racism?"
Are you saying systematically - as in laws and systems designed to prevent upwards mobility of a particular demographic?
Are you saying racist in the sense that if a particular demographic were to step foot into the coutnry they'd be accosted w/ racist speech and violence quicker than the other countries?
There are so many variables.
For instance, when you consider the U.S.A was founded in 1776, with respect to this poll, their part in American slavery can only be a contribution of 111 years, considering slavery was abolished there in 1865.
Thus the majority of "slavery in north america" must be attributed to other empires and nations within Europe.
Also, it's important to note the Irish Potato famine that killed a million Irish and changed the trajectory of their Country. A tragedy that could have been alleviated if the British didn't have such a racist disdain for Irish people.
