Believe it or not, the United States. After WWI, we withdrew into a peaceful and bliss ignorance of the world. It was idyllic and the country was just fine.
It was FDR who realizing the threat posed by Germanys Hitler and Japans Imperialist designs, who had to ';shake'; his citizens out of their ';sleep'; state. He knew the public and Congress would not support involvement.
Thats why to this day, there has always been that suspicion that FDR knew about Pearl Harbor, before it happened.
We'll never really be certain, but it worked.
