I’m on my phone, it’s actually 4 lists, and it’s very long lists.

Not really...
I've been to one of the oldest, Sean's Bar in Athlone, Ireland, dating back to AD 900.

Well, there’s a couple of things. But for as much as infrastructure got fricked in Germany and Japan in WW2, they dominate those lists.

Japan is an island nation that hasn't been successfully invaded ever and is xenophobic as frick, so it makes sense on why they would have so many. They also weren't raped by the Mongols or the Vikings.

Where are the Wakandan corporations?

The most impressive business on that list to me is the Marinelli Bell Foundry.
That industry contracted greatly at the turn of the 20th century
The company has remained in the family since its founding in 1339!
