What are the contributing factors to the fall of a global empire? Rome was a victim of its own tyranny and lies, The Spanish fell to the rising of a greater empire, (the english,) and countless others crumbled for various reasons.
But it really makes you think, if Rome was in power for a few hundred years before it fell, how farfetched is it that the US, (if considered an empire, or if thought to be on the road to imperialism,) will eventually fall just as hard?
It is predicted that the US will fall behind china as the economic global leader within the century, more accuratley, within 30 or 40 years. You think this could lead to something more drastic? What do you all think?
