LOL bud, you may want to actually read a little more into history instead of assuming from a single calculator. Can you name a single country that lives good lives without streets with traffic?

    I did read the history out of curiosity after being surprised at hearing Bach's cantata.

    I can name several such places. The United States, for one. The Census Bureau declared the frontier closed in 1890. That is, the continent was fully-settled from coast to coast before automobiles were a thing. Immigration was in full swing because the country was becoming an economic powerhouse. People lived quite well.
