"All empires collapse eventually: Akkad, Sumeria, 
Babylonia, Ninevah, Assyria, Persia, Macedonia, 
Greece, Carthage, Rome, Mali, Songhai, Mongonl, 
Tokugawaw, Gupta, Khmer, Hapbsburg, Inca, Aztec, 
Spanish, Dutch, Ottoman, Austrian, French, 
British, Soviet, you name them, they all fell, 
and most within a few hundred years. The reasons 
are not really complex. An empire is a kind of 
state system that inevitably makes the same 
mistakes simply by the nature of its imperial 
structure and inevitably fails because of its 
size, complexity, territorial reach, 
stratification, heterogeneity, domination, 
hierarchy, and inequalities. "
-Kirkpatrick Sale
