The point is Rome did not last 1,480+ years as you and the other poster claimed, not even close. Odoacer conquered Rome and became the first barbarian king of Italy in 476 AD.

The Roman Empire began in 27 BC with Augustus, the first emperor of Rome. It eventually split in half in 395 AD. The Western Roman Empire, including the city of Rome itself, fell in 476 AD. The Eastern Roman Empire, or the Byzantine Empire was centered on Constantinople, not Rome.

The Roman Empire split in 395 AD. The Western Roman Empire, including the city of Rome itself, fell in 476 AD.

Don't trust the news or social media basically, it's being heavily manipulated.

As for the Ukraine proxy war, the people got screwed very badly there on both sides. I am ashamed my government supported it.

Cliodynamics and Structural-Demographic Theory suggests cycles of 200-300 years as well.

It's not just Glubb. The Changing World Order by Ray Dalio also arrives at the 250 year number.
