[quote="Infection_Smith@":dc4d4]wow I truly see a parallel with our time with ancient times.

Soviet Union or Nazi Germany = Carthage

Britain = Greece (Alot of Rome's culture was based on Greek) Also note Britain controlled 1/4 of the world. Greece created an empire that nearly took all over the known world.

USA= Rome

Middle-East = Gauls and Celtics and Goths

Empires come and fall. They embody the same spirit through different bodies.

I think America within this half-century and the next century will be at its height of its power. Afterwards history will repeat itself.[/quote:dc4d4]

Couldnt have said it better myself. When an empire reaches its greatest power it begins to decline. America is still building to its climax wich i believe will be after Gulf War II. Then slowly but surely it will politically and economically collapse..

When i first came to the United States, 4 Litai (Lithuanian money) equaled 1 dollar. Now its 2 Litai for 1 dollar. The Euro is rising, so is the Pound.
