Civilizations come and go

Civilizations come and go. What were once mighty and feared by all, are today in third world countries. Power cores shift all the time.

The Egyptians were once a mighty nations. They built the pyramids, and rule over many. Now they are a poor nations. The Babylons were legendary, but modern Iraq is living no where leading the world. Then came the Persians, and Iran today is well.... The Greeks were the cradle of Europeans civilisation and culture. In fact, they were so advanced they invented modern democracy. The Romans empire once spanned over the whole known world. Today, Greece and Italy are the poorer countries in Europe. The Mongolians occupied the largest parcel of land in all history, but today they remain little more than subsistence living.

The Europeans kingdoms rise and wane. The French, Austrian, Spain, and Portugal were once super power. Spain were conquered much of South America and some part of Asia. They cleaned out the South American culture, and replace them with Latin. Till this date, the whole of South America only speaks Latin. England was the last of the great empire in Europe, and they once ruled over much of the Europe, India, Asia, and proudly claimed the sun never set on their flag.
