Politicians and professionals are the most noticeable group of people in any country. The prompt claims that the greatness of a nation can not be accurately represented by the achievement of rulers, artists, and scientists, but the overall welfare of a general people portrays the true indication. I mostly agree with the claim, primarily due to two major reasons listed below. However, I do concede that in cases of already developed and great nations, these two factors might
coincide.
First of all, for any nation, the true indication of its greatness can not be gauzed by the achievement of its rulers, artists, or scientists,
because, usually, these people comprise a very small percentage of the total population of the nation. Let's say, within 1% of the whole population. How can anyone predict the condition and well-being of the whole nation based on the observation of a mere 1% of that population? For instance, India is one of the rapidly growing nations with a lot of great scientists, well-known artists, and famous politicians. However, it is still one of the countries where a vast amount of people are fighting against poverty and other social issues. So, probably, the number of scientists and famous politicians might not be the true indication of welfare of people at a grassroots level. This is just an example of how such generalization can go wrong. There are multiple such cases around the world. So, the true indication of the welfare of any nation would be represented only by the observation of its people from the grassroots level, preferably the rural area.
moreover, a nation is represented not only by its urban area. For a nation to be considered great, it must be capable of ensuring the all-round well-being of the people in urban as well as a rural area. In the claim made by the prompt, there is no consideration of a diversity factor. The group of artists, scientists, and politicians basically represent the urban life of a nation, leaving out a large chunk of the rustic lifestyle. The people in rural areas are unperturbed by any peripheral issues. For example, most of the rural areas in the African countries do not even have arrangements for basic needs like food, shelter, education, etc. Still, many of those countries are not short of great politicians and world-famous artists or professionals. For those countries to be considered great, it is essential to fulfill the basic needs of a majority of people, if not for all, and ensure that prosperity covers the rural areas as well.
Admittedly, there could be a few exceptions like in cases of Scandinavian countries like Norway, Sweden, etc. who have mastered the art of promoting their scientist, artists, and politicians in an international arena for great achievements, while also ensuring that the rural parts of the country get equal attention. They are the epitome of balanced and all-around well-being.
To conclude, for any nation to be considered great, it is essential to consider the major factors related to its people. The well-being and happiness of the people exhibit a clear picture of how great the nation is, rather than the achievements of a few scientists, artists, and politicians.
