Neutrality and Isolationism!!!
This was the point that Washington made a long, long time ago. This point was actually brought up by the supporters of the Nazi party in the United Stated before the U.S. got involved in WW2. It’s quite interesting that Washington’s quote about isolationism would be used to support the nazis though...
Hope this helps, have a great day!
I think the answer is Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II
<span>He definitely wasn't a failure: he captained what became arguably the most famous voyage in the history of seafaring. True, he wasn't the first European to visit America (the Vikings were), but his journey opened up the East and the West and ushered in the modern era. That isn't something a failure could do.
But he certainly wasn't a hero, either. He was a ruthless and cruel man who inflicted unspeakable tortures upon innocent natives after he arrived in America.
He was neither a failure, nor a hero. He was a very succesful man who was also a horrible person.</span>
