A great nation which just happens to be the best country ever created in the history…

Indeed, not much remains when it comes to the topic of society in our civilization, and our think tanks, academia, and government leaders are constantly speaking amongst themselves how to use social engineering tactics to maintain civility in a society?

The Thracian treasures were discovered right after World War Two. There were hundreds of places which were suspected to hide tombs and treasures, but there were no more consistent searches. In 1992, archaeologist Georgi Kitov from Bulgaria planned a large campaign, but only got a little money and couldn’t afford to dig only for one week.

There is much evidence that by 2060, a mere fifty years from now, we will probably have less available non-solar energy than people had in the eighteenth Century. The consequence of trying to maintain our present lifestyle without the vast amounts of energy we take for granted will always be available, combined with an unsustainable population is a disaster waiting to happen. After we have squandered those precious fuels, our way of living will be extremely different and we will have to contend with the kind of lifestyles that people had in the seventeenth century, with no new metals, electricity, mass transport and so on.
