Story
In the wake of Napoleon's defeat in 1814, the globalists of the day (mostly monarchs) sought to create a governing arrangement for Europe. Within forty years, three of the major participants were at war with each other. After World War I, they tried again at Versailles, this time even more aggressively changing boundaries of nations and moving populations. That attempt only lasted twenty years before another major war between the participants. Yet again, after World War II, globalists used the threat of the atomic bomb to try to form an international government with the United Nations.

Il futuro di una volta era migliore, oppure si guardava a esso con più ottimismo? Quali erano le condizioni di vita quando il futuro era più roseo?

Dobbiamo rallegrarci di vivere in un Paese pacifico e libero, dove lo Stato si dà carico del benessere dei cittadini e li assicura nei confronti di molti rischi, dove tutti possono fruire dei benefici del progresso tecnologico, che fa parte della ristretta schiera delle nazioni sviluppate?
