>undisputed global superpower, most powerful economy in the world, constitution still in effect after almost 250 years

He probably wouldn't be too displeased, though I imagine he'd be a little concerned with our military fixation, as well as the utter cesspit that is modern political discourse.

wasn't he against political parties? he'd probably be slightly ticked about how a lot of americans identify with their party

Very few people from any given time period would be happy about how the future turned out. It would be too bizarre and foreign to them.

If you think that's bad, check out how Chicago's highway system is built. Literally designed from the ground up to keep niggers on the Southside.

tl;dr Christianity fucked it all.

The main differences come about through the fact that German phonics got introduced to the European phonetic lexicon at this time on a scale theretofore unseen. There's some vowel shift at this time too, meaning that some Classical words are spelled differently in Medieval, but the differences are usually pretty subtle. The main differences that you would really notice are in pronunciation. Our modern "v" sound becomes a thing in Medieval Latin, and silent letters begin cropping up as well. The Italian "ch" sound happens here too, so, for instance, Caesar goes from being pronounced as one would pronounce Kaiser to being pronounced "Chay-sahr". You should be able to comprehend the written words pretty accurately, although there are some strange compounds that happen in Medieval Latin that weren't around before. All in all, keep a Latin dictionary handy and you should be fine.

Not in the situation Germany was in (lack of ressources, war situation etc), but then again, nothing would have been effective because of that...

Still an interesting topic and I recommend this video if you want to know more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7Q92V5hK-c

Might have been good against bombers, but then you're just going to have smaller, nimbler fighters going low to the ground and strafing the missile sites. This isn't like modern SAMs where it can lock on from beyond the horizon and track the plane through chaff and evasive maneuvers. It's more like an upsized Stinger.

Not in the amount of development time they had, and not while fighting for resources with all the other Super Secret X Weapons of Ultimate Doom.
