User:Sgt.T.N.Biscuits/Emmerich Predictions

The Emmerich Predictions were a set of theories proposed by German-born politician, Raimund Emmerich. The theories published in 2055, predicted the possibility of a downfall of American Goverment and a subsequent death of Democracy as a result.

Background
As the world clashed over issues such as famine and energy, internal political conflicts threatened to tear American society apart. By comparing these conflicts to events prior, Raimund Emmerich predicted that US Goverment would not be able to control itself and would wind up either in political ruins or a massive civil war. Believing the one of the two would happen, he then predicted the results of such a meltdown and found them to be disasturous. Emmerich believed that if the US were to fall, that Democracies/Republics would become viewed as a failed form of goverment and would be replaced by an authoritarian style society.
