My personal conspiracy theory is that the Edmund Fitzgerald was torpedoed by a Canadian submarine after straying into Canadian waters.

New World Order is now out in the open. It used to be concealed. How about agenda 21 and codex alimentarius? Operation Northwoods anybody?

Not exactly a conspiracy theory, but certainly just as crazy....ever heard of the Sovereign man Movement? Listen to this loon, it's hysterical. The Free Man On The Land and Driving Versus Travelling No License To Drive A Car crowd are all closely related. They are a fascinating group of retarded people.
Watch the video I promise you will be fascinated and amused.

That's a good point.
Why does America seem to be a magnet for weird conspiracy claims?

I don't believe in coincidences - Don Corleone
There was the Reichstag Fire, and the Gunpowder Plot. But, only the US Government has easily confused citizens. After all, once a conspiracy is exposed, it ain't a conspiracy theory, just history. The US Government does a good job constructing their plots. (Innovation. An American Talent!) Or, not a good enough job to hide the loose ends completely. Did you ever hear about a Chinese conspiracy? And the government probably created many of the more bogus CT's on this list just to muddy the waters! (Talkin' 'bout you, alien autopsy!)
And, don't forget the Gulf of Tonkin.

I think the the victims of the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution might qualify. How many unknown millions died, starved to death, were executed, or were imprisoned and it got hushed up?

Same could be said of Stalinist Russia.

I'm sure other nations have their own rosters of conspiracy theories. Russia for sure has many, though I cannot name any straight off. Here's one:

I don't think those events were hushed up in their respective countries. Too many missing relatives to blame on alien abductions. They were commonly accepted. When i was in the USSR in 1970 it was hard not to notice that all the old people we saw were women. The Soviet "guide" (babysitter/ escort/guard) even told us the figures: 20 mil men from WW2, 20 mil men from Stalin's purges. Of course, when Uncle Joe was around ...
Will "Uncle Joe" ever again go away over here so the truth will out?
Don' tink so. Not until China takes formal control, anyway. THEY will tell us what our government did.
