The short tyrant's last-ditch, pitiful attempt to get empire status for Russia reminds us of that other short fellow and his last-ditch attempt to regain some stature for the French Empire in the early 19th century. We talk here of the wars of the nations, and the reasons why Europe, Russia, and the West are collapsing. It was Russia's fault. This nation has suffered the largest population implosion of all of them because of what happened in 1920, and Humpty Dumpty simply cannot reverse the destruction brought about by abortion and the pill. Based on population estimates, we provide a pretty solid sense of who rules the world in 2050.
