 How is Rome and The U.S. alike?

 Do You Think the U.S. will Ever Fall as Rome Did?

 If the U.S. ever Fall What Type of Civilization do You think will take its place?

 

 

      The U.S. is like Rome in some ways. Rome and America are two most powerful actors in their own world. We both have a strong Military, Language, culture, Technology, and Ideas. Almost approximately equal in size. We have somewhat comparison in physical size. We both created global structures. Other worlds have taken these things for granted. We both have many people that make up the societies. We get about the same amount,(in fact so many we really cant get enough of), lawyers and Lawsuits. We both see ourselves as chosen people.

 

       Personally, I do think the U.S. will fall as Rome did. My opinion was stated yes because, we are taking the wrong road and getting the wrong ideas. We don't set good examples, such as: having other countries give up their firearms, but we can hold on to ours.

 

       If the U.S. ever falls, I think the type of civilization will become a Dictatorship. Only because, one person will be in control of the Government. There will be no say so what so ever from the American Society. We could go under dictatorship with the cause of having a 10% of unemployed people and being stuck 17 trillion dollars in the debt. letting people get lesser sentences in prison/ jail for murder. we are going to either Relinquish or Conform.
