Fifth Turning Nations
Generational explanation for the violence in Mexico Mexico's last generational crisis war was the Mexican Revolution of 1910-21. Mexico and Turkey are the only two major countries that have gone more than 90 years without a generational crisis war. I was curious about this statement - does this mea...

Re: Big wars that ALMOST started
I apparently reached exactly this conclusion in 2015. That's right! I had forgotten about that. It also makes sense with some cursory reading I've done today. All the sources Ive consulted, from book to Wikipedia indicate that the war was very unpopular in Argentina, and there were even some rebell...

Re: Big wars that ALMOST started
These wars of national unification could be considered a kind of precursor to WW I, since they involved so much of the world, including the US and Britain. It was at this time that the world's generational timelines coalesced around two of them, which we now call the World War I timeline (Russia, E...

Re: Big wars that ALMOST started
http://www.cracked.com/article_20510_5- ... pened.html How did GD help prevent these wars (if it did)? What's interesting is that the first scenarios involving Russia were both ended by powers that were definitely war weary. In the potential US-Russia standoff, it even says it was the US who backed...

Re: 9-Jun-18 World View -- Argentina faces major financial crisis as IMF loans it $50 billion
9-Jun-18 World View -- Argentina faces major financial crisis as IMF loans it $50 billion Where is Argentina on the generational timeline? I've suspected their last crisis wars was the Dirty War of the 1970s, possibly climaxing either in 1977 or 1979, which would put Argentina at the end of an awak...

Re: A crisis war with the Nomads in charge instead of the Prophets?
True, and that's good to watch out for confirmation bias. Yet 58 years between a crisis climax (1717) and a regeneracy event (1775) is perfectly reasonable, though I think the fact that it began in New England and not the south is indeed due to the fact that New England was very far along into a cri...

Re: A crisis war with the Nomads in charge instead of the Prophets?
Bacon's rebellion does not read like a crisis war. I really don't buy that Bacon's rebellion was a crisis war. It reads far more like a political conflict than a life and death struggle. Hmm, that could be. But I dont' know what the crisis war between the Powhatan Wars of the early/mid 1600s to the...

Re: A crisis war with the Nomads in charge instead of the Prophets?
Japan Bombing Pearl Harbor in 1935 was an impossibility because Japan's war Plans in 1935 Assumed that the USSR, Not the US was japan's main adversary. It was only with the oil Embargo Crisis in 1940 and 1941 that Japanese leaders considered the US as Japan's primary adversary. Pearl Harbor was sel...

Re: A crisis war with the Nomads in charge instead of the Prophets?
I admit, when it comes to Colonial America, it does seem that not all the colonies were on the same timeline, though I haven't been able to deduce specifics. I believe that the New England were farthest into a crisis era, since they were the first to rebel. I've done a little bit of research on thi...

Re: 1-Mar-18 World View -- Moving sharply left, South Africa calls for potentially disastrous land reform
1-Mar-18 World View -- Moving sharply left, South Africa calls for potentially disastrous land reform John, this is a very troublesome development. At best South Africa will become a new Zimbabwe, which would be disastrous. However, there is a major difference between Zimbabwe's land reform and Sou...
