5.0 out of 5 stars When the Future Empires Fall, September 10, 2001

This review is from: The Crash of Empire (Imperial Stars, Book 3) (Paperback)
The first book in this series of three showed how in the future there will be Government, of various sorts. The second examined the conflict between the types of government, with Republics fighting Empires. Third in the series, this book does drag a little at times, but details how and why future empires are likely to fall.

No, they do not fall lightly or easily, with the sole exception of the graceful fall of the British Empire, and when they do fall, civilization tends to revert to barbarism.

What would make an empire fall? Many factors, each self correctable to the unbaised observer, but with those in power never being or listening to said observer.

One of the essays, on the Vietnam War, does drag a little, and that is the only thing that slows down what is otherwise an excellent read.
