Will the US end up like Rome?

Ruined by a crusade and then later conquered by the Turks? Nah, I don't think it's likely.

It first has to be like Rome before ending up like it.

>>1829960
Oyvey, well could the US end up like the Western Empire?

It's gonna be a little hard for there to be a full scale collapse when the world is this crowded and everyone has nuclear weapons.

Then again, those two problems might cancel each other out.

>>1829965
Probably more like the British empire where it's economic dominance falls and it gradually becomes more irrelevant.

>>1829955
Something big would need to happen for a new "empire" to develop

Another world war or maybe even technology/space related shenanigans if it goes on long enough

No doubt the US has already secured its place on the global history books from its massive influence on contemporary events

The U.S isn't Rome, don't be mislead by superficial analogies to ancient history. The world is a very different place today.

I think if a big group of states bailed out of the union (that's what they call it right?) Then you'd see something similar happen.
Like splitting the empire into east and west.

nothing lasts forever

USA will probably turn into a 1500 A.D technology mexican state, once white people cease to exist the drug market goes away leaving the mexicans to do agricultural peasant like labor to support the economy of their country like they did before this cartel horseshit.

The question wasn't if it was Rome, but whether it would end up like it.

And it's true, all things turn into dust eventually

>>1829955
Certainly possible. Whether it's probable? I think you'd need to really know what's going on, in a scope that no one here can.

>>1830502
Pol has already propagated its politics into other boards, its too late to stop that.

>>1829955
Guessing about the future does not belong on a history board. And no.

What about pic related? It uses mathematics to model decline and rise.

>>1831894
And - forgot to add - uses history.

Idk, why do you even compare us to the Roman Empire?

Well played my man.
But I don't think it is in the black swan domain.

You need to see the factors he is modeling as symptoms of a disease.

Good enough?

Nice dubs. To answer the question: it is already happening.

>>1832521
OP here. Didn't even notice those dubs. Thanks for not being a stickler like almost everyone else.
