If you could travel faster than light, at some point you would reach the light from earth during roman times. This assumedly would be a vast un-uniform [due to space bending] sphere + over time - a great ovaloid. Ancient China was also vast and influential in those times as was India.
Yet which has the most influence in the present [analogously]? And aren’t we somewhat mysteriously manifesting those great spheres in the present? Because Rome is the greater influence on the west, and the west has the greater influence in the present world, is Rome the greatest? Then China is [at present] nos2, islam nos3, and again somewhat like a mirror of those analogous spheres.
Hmm i chink the ancient Chinese empire was more vast than the Roman, but they/it are more insular. Thus Rome being somewhat opposite, has a greater momentum or impetus.
Which sphere will become the greatest, and will they be superseded? I find it quite interesting to consider a world which is none of them.
I hope so. It does ‘feel’ like an accumulation though, as if to some zenith. Usually end of cycle events are unpleasant, after all, for that change to occur what went before is destroyed in some sense.
Indeed, and do you think there will be a massive change in the near future? Will humanity end up somewhat resourceless? Or reach a permanent level of technological reproduction i.e. Beyond the need for raw materials?
This, in my view, is a process that is underway and cannot be stopped.
The way things are now, globally, the problem of resources is already becoming a very serious one. One example is the privatization of water, and the repercussions down the road will be dire for many many people. If you were to do a google search on “privatization of water,” you would see what I mean.
Well we will run out of resources at some people, and i can’t envision that being pleasant. I think it is avoidable, but i see no signs that anything is being done about overpopulation. Capitalism is something of a growing demon, though it could also be the thing which gets us past resource depletion.
