Understanding of this fact is a way in which we could have a clearer perception of historic context.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The XX century is a clash of empires story<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Governments of the early 20th century understood that those who control extraction and distribution of fossil fuels were going to gain a better economy and higher competitive advantage during the major wave of globalization. The issue was that there were too many empires, who claimed their rights to own and extract resources on a global scale. In the beginning of the first world war, there were 5 empires in Europe and also the United States on the North America continent, as the sixth\u2019s competitor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result of World War I\u00a0 the Ottoman empire has gone, the Austro-Hungarian empire has gone too. Nonetheless France and the United Kingdom \u2013 as victors of the first world war, with their position cemented under the League of Nations mandate, became stronger at the expense of the \u2018losers\u2019 of World War I &#8211; in particular, Germany. The Russian Empire also broke up, but eventually it became the Soviet Union. So the goal of the first world war to find the ultimate winner was not met. In that regard, the first and the second world war can be seen as one conflict prolonged in time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During World War II France was defeated by Germany. Germany lost the war to the Soviet Union and the US. The United Kingdom became too indebted, and as the result of the Atlantic Charter, gave up its colonial empire for the benefit of the US.\u00a0 This Charter later formed the basis of the United Nations, which set out the international rules-based order since the Second World War.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So when all the clashes were finished in 1945, only two of the six empires remained, and the bipolar system was established in the world. In the Western world, the Bretton Woods System set out an economic order backed by the US dollar for territories under US, NATO and its allies jurisdiction. Meanwhile, constituents of the Soviet Union and countries of the Warsaw Pact established their own system of transferable ruble on the east. From the 1950s\u00a0 the clash continued in the form of the Cold War (because of nuclear parity).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-3 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:50%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:3.84%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:3.84%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-image-element \" style=\"--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-2 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"914\" height=\"704\" title=\"Screen Shot 2022-04-11 at 21.56.01\" src=\"https:\/\/francescoeconomy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-11-at-21.56.01.png\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/francescoeconomy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-11-at-21.56.01.png\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-17446\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27914%27%20height%3D%27704%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20914%20704%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27914%27%20height%3D%27704%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/francescoeconomy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-11-at-21.56.01-200x154.png 200w, https:\/\/francescoeconomy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-11-at-21.56.01-400x308.png 400w, https:\/\/francescoeconomy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-11-at-21.56.01-600x462.png 600w, https:\/\/francescoeconomy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-11-at-21.56.01-800x616.png 800w, https:\/\/francescoeconomy.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-11-at-21.56.01.png 914w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-4 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:50%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:3.84%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:3.84%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Throughout the following decades each economic system emitted more and more money, enabling more and more fossil fuels of their territories to participate in economic turnover.

Both systems were limited by the resources of their own economic sphere of control and influence.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But in 1991 the Soviet Union eventually capitulated the Cold War. Thus the United States became the ultimate winner in the XX century clash.\u00a0 The US has become a holder of the ultimate economic system and an ultimate global currency. And also it became the global policeman <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_United_States_military_bases\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">having its military bases all over the world<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to ensure its economic mechanism and rules are accepted everywhere.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All the resources of former Warsaw pact countries were included into economic turnover of the US dollar system, preventing stagflation for another 30 years, right until now.

A new debt or money creation is not leading to further growth, it is leading only to the stagflation of a non-cyclical nature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indeed, we managed to escape another great depression in 2008. Ultra-loose monetary policy helped not to follow the 1929\u00a0 deflationary crisis path. But instead, we got a tremendous rise in central banks&#8217; balance sheets and global debt, up to unsustainable levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus instead of a deflationary depression, we are facing a much deeper inflationary one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So with the global economic mechanism coming to stagflation, the US has fewer means and influence to sustain its superpower status and is losing its role as a global policeman. This fact has very profound implications worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Is there hope for Peace?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">International law was designed in times of bipolar security architecture with its unique checks and balances.

It seems that no conclusions were made in the past 100 years, and the rule of force is still regarded as normal. Russia military forces&#8217; invasion of Ukraine is for now the biggest and probably the scariest sign of this.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What will be next? Is Russia claiming the Baltic states back? Or did China start military operations in the South China Sea region? Or Iran gaining nuclear weapons? There is also uneasy peace between India \/ Pakistan over Kashmir; the balance in Israel\/Palestine; or the many challenges in Greater China over Xinjiang, Tibet, Taiwan, Hong Kong, etc&#8230; If Russia achieves its goals in Ukraine, such behavior will be regarded as normal globally. This will be a precedent that finally heralds a totally different world. A world without the United Nations, without international law.
