Geopolitics & Empire

CHAPTER

Economic Manipulation and Historical Contexts

This chapter explores the intersection of economic challenges and public perception, particularly through the lens of historical empires and their motivations for conflict. It argues that the middle class is being systematically eroded, with contemporary parallels drawn to past events such as World Wars I and II, where economic interests were often masked by ideological narratives. The discussion highlights the complexities of geopolitical dynamics and the role of resource acquisition in shaping historical actions and justifications.
