Here is an idea. History is human according to humans.
And let us give the Brits some credit for helping shape our world, and I think, our future world. Said another way, their empire at their time introduced ideas that seem to be selling these days. The world these days is not an eastern or western construct, exactly; or even a religious construct, more a human construct.
Anyway old ideas like communism and socialism and capitalism and religious imposition are fading, I think. Anyway, that is just an idea. Unfortunately, we these days will also have to go through the process of change, and the friction that will ensue. And mostly this means all humans are created equal, though some clearly are more hard working and self sacrificing than others. Now mostly that means we love our families and our kids, and go forward in our own ways.
Now I suspect the impact/transition/future will be worse in our human eastern societies, especially if you buy the Brit/western ideas. Use your own experience to think about this. For example, do we humans want to revert to governments like royalty, dictatorship, or false democracies? In other words, using the Brit/western idea, can we still vote about our future, where ever we live on the earth?
In the converse, present rulers wherever also know to listen to the local people however they rule and collect taxes. Most don't seek anarchy. That’s just a dumb way to go. And most potentates know this.
