If your country doesn't have a building that's at least 1500ft tall, it's basically a non-country.

That's not from the wind. That's a minaret being played by the local mosque.

Lots of non-countries have buildings like that or have some in the works. The thing is, most places that build them don't do it based on the economics or demand, they do it for no real reason. That's especially true of the Middle East, China, and to some extent Russia.

If you use "normal" height judgement Sears is still higher.
Literally 13 years of planning and building and we still manage to make WTC shorter than a building from the 70's.

Why is there a distinction between towers and buildings? The CN Tower is taller than the One World Trade Center, but not on the list.

>>52152017
>my upcoming impersonation
Uh?

>>52152184

Well it's not exactly the same is it. All of those buildings have like 100+ floors. The CN tower must have like two floors or something.

Any building taller than the empire state building is insecure dick waving.

Ooooooh we must make buirding to be tarrer than USA pigdog show CHINA NUMBAH WAN
>Arabs (nouveau riche)
this oil will run out soon we must build the largest tower as a sign of our wealth and extravagance. Maybe then the west know that our desert towns with no cultre or value other than crude oil are actually, in fact, quite rich and prosperous.
>Americans
oh shit you guys the chinks and dune coons are building bigger towers than us. Better show em' what some good ol' freedom can achieve.
