Your opinion.. Great nations write their autobiographies in....?

The book of deeds. Any nation can brag about itself in words, so words do not make a nation great. Art is subjective to the individual creating it, so it does not represent a nation's greatness as a whole. Deeds are what nations are known for. Deeds cause other nations to write about that country's greatness, providing a more subjective look, and showing a wider sphere of influence.
