I think the Germans have learned from what happened, so that we can be almost sure this won't happen again in the near future. Once people forget about this, they might fall back into the same old bullshit again.

Its not necessarily a bad thing to be in an empireYou have a very simplistic view of things, however I admire your optimism. Even though youre totally off.An empire system is the current system but more overtly inforced. There is no difference between an Empire and Americas current position.Having an empire will only strengthen Western grip on the worlds resources, it will drown out nationalism , and lead to a global order that we are already on the road to. In essence, your proposing an answer to a problem, however that answer is complimentary to the problem.Name one empire where more than 10% of the occupied countries benefitted from it. And dont bring up Romans. Im talkin last couple hundred years.
Upon independence in 1980, Zimbabwe had a balance of payments surplus, a low foreign debt and regularly exported surplus food. After two decades of Robert Mugabe's rule, the economy is in rapid decline, a land crisis has been created, political instability increases daily and much of the population is starving. A famine looms.
