I also didn't mention nuclear warfare. There are going to be comments about how we can't have wars anymore due to mutually assured destruction. This is a possibility, but not one I agree with. Missile defence systems have gotten better, being capable of knocking half of the nuclear attacks out of the sky. Hypersonics may change this. However, nuclear arsenals have also shrunk enormous and nuclear payloads have also shrunk dramatically. I've heard the estimate that a nuclear war in 1980 would cause 1 billion deaths, and today 300 million. This is a manageable number when you look at China and India's populations. Also, it's in no one's self interest to have a nuclear war, with China having a treaty that it will never have a nuclear strike without the Chinese homeland nuked first. The US has a far greater nuclear advantage over China and so China would not start one since it would be so outclassed. It's sort of similar to chemical warfare in the 2nd World War, where all the powers involved had poison gas, but all knew that the other sides would just use it if they did.

Everything he said in this video has a substantial probability of happening. I'm not too sure about a China-India War though, and I sincerely hope that does not occur. According to Terry Pratchett, there's an old Chinese curse that goes something to the effect of "may you live in interesting times". We live in very interesting times.
I remember years ago I was wishing to myself that I could live in more interesting times. The hell was I thinking.
'May you live in interesting times.' - Chinese curse

@Flix Flox Tbh, I just want to live a life in which basic human rights are upheld, and political discourse becomes a matter of ideological nuance as opposed to all out ideological war. It is depressing knowing that in my lifetime, basic resources will become war commodities and that I will most likely spend my life simply staying afloat in an ever regressing and outdated economic model. I just want to work, have a family, and enjoy my leisure time, but instead I need to constantly devote time to thinking about what will happen as a result of international crises. This video is depressing and whilst I'm glad it existed, I hate the very nature of it's neccesity...
Ya happy now?

Me, a Nigerian listening to him get increasingly frustrated as he talks about how ridiculous the situation is in Nigeria: First Time?
North or South Nigeria?
At least you have oil. All you have to do is not to be the very first conflict. If you can manage that, then when random conflict starts somewhere else, lets say middle east, it will automatically mean that oil production for global market will be restricted. Which means that price will skyrocket.
Just look how Nigerian standard of living improved between 2003-2014 after invasion of Iraq, since oil got scarce and price was near 100$.
But yeah, with that population growth, that oil revenue will have to be split between much more people, so it won’t be as fun as 15 years ago.
I swr bro
@Pecu Alex I didn’t mean it as all is fine because of oil. Obviously it’s better to develop and not to be reliant on things that are mined. And all other problems are still there. I just meant that as it’s not completely hopeless position.
Compare Nigeria with Iraq. Nigeria doesn’t border some big ass rising new empire that could swallow it. Iraq can even choose whether it gets taken over by Iran or Turkey. Nigeria doesn’t have to worry about some other country controlling its water supply. As was mentioned, Iraq’s water is controlled by Turkey. Corruption is in both. Ethnic division is in both. Oil is in both.
So Nigerian position isn’t great. But at least it’s not in middle of cold war between Iran and Saudi Arabia. Nigeria is nicely far away from all potential external conflict. From all big rising powers. Nearest big rising power besides Nigeria is Ethiopia and that is on other side of Africa with no way to interfere with Nigeria.
So Nigeria only has to worry about internal problems. And internal problems are all within power of people to solve it. So it completely depends on Nigerian people.

What did not age well was his prediction that Russia would steamroll Ukraine in two weeks. But let's be honest, EVERYONE expected that. Ukraine successfully defending itself has changed the history of the entire world.

how does he predict things will go? theres a war between Ukraine and Russia right now.
America forces this war to happen, they wanted this war to happen. Just like they want a war with China with Taiwan, they want a war with Iran, they blockaded Venezuela causing a collapse of its economy and propping up some fake president. America has done more coups, invaded more countries, and killed more civilians than every country in the world. Russia said in 2008 that the US needs to stay out of Ukraine yet they went in, armed Ukraine, have CIA bases and trained it's military and have billions arming Ukraine while Ukraine killed Russian civilians and was preparing to invade the donbass as soon as Biden took power, and Putin prepared his army to stop that invasion. The people of donbass and Crimea voted to join Russia and Russia said no and tried the Minsk agreement, that Europe openly said they never intended to implement same with Ukraine. The West wanted this war, they wanted to use Ukrainian blood to kill Russians.
Wow, I have not considered China/Russia acting aggressively due to aging population, really great insight
Yeah, interesting for sure. They have around 15-20 years before they have serious problems with the elderly.
That doesn't make sense. Aging population would make you act less aggresive. High birth rate cause you to be militaristic.
Keep in mind this is a propaganda channel
@@johnnybc1520 ??? China cannot accommodate it's newly aging population due to poor welfare systems along with the fact that their workforce is going to be incredibly more insignificant than previously (since y'know, declining birthrates and the fact that old people retire). They're acting aggressively specifically because of this as quite simply, they have to act fast.
That’s why you don’t control population artificially it will go down itself at a certain time

Huh, for some reason it didn't click that the Tigris and Euphrates have their headwaters in Anatolia.
No wonder the Ottomans were so powerful.
If their headwaters were to south of anatolia that region still would be under Turkish control
And the Byzantines, and the Hittites...
@@MetropoleYT Didn't help that the Industrial Revolution happened, and Turkey waited until the 20th Century to get into that fad.
why would that make them powerful
Control over water bodies is a relatively modern thing. Had nothing to do with Ottomans or Seljuks being strong in the past. These were majorly due to Turkic military power with fast horsed archers and good command structures since Göktürks.

@@flowerpower8722 while I believe overpopulation and it's continued strain on resources will become major tension points over the coming decades, these issues are largely consolidated to the Eastern Hemisphere. The Western Hemisphere is nowhere close to populations overtaking resources. It's kind of like this: the correct COVID-19 response and remedy for New York City isn't the same correct response and remedy for, let's say, Lubbock, TX. The populations and their respective population densities are lightyears apart. In other words, I agree with what you said, I just don't think the remedy for Sri Lanka is the same remedy needed for Canada.
I thought the same...9/11 happened while I was doing initial entry training in the US Army and the reality of going to war became real. I was enthusiastic about it...until I wasn't. Somehow being pinned down under fire and seeing a mass of your wounded/dead friends piled in a casualty collection point will change your naïve presuppositions about glory and excitement by forcing you to understand that you've been duped into misery and terror.

One of the consequences of this is that India, if she insists on acting like a Hindu and a cast state rather than a pluralist, religiously neutral, capitalist state, will find herself fighting the Chinese without America fully on side. It is likely that the American religious conservative right will not fully support a pro-Indian administration in a time of crisis if India continues to betray its own constitution with respect to religious freedom. I'm not saying that this is right, just that it's a political reality that India should understand.
@@josephdestaubin7426 That’s a fair point. India is on some malarky. But it’s fact that the US has joined forces with Taiwan, Japan, The Philippines, Australia, and India to react to Chinese acts of aggression if it so chooses to attack. The United States Will be reacting if China invaded India
Hit the nail on the head with the Russian prediction lol
Damm there is now almost a water war between Kirgizstan and Tajikistan. Your content is very accurate.
It's crazy how in schools where taught how peaceful the world is as though no conflict is happening and then as we grow up we come to understand that the world is still quite possibly ready to murder each other it's just that this is a lull in the action.
what lull there has been conflicts on tv nearly every year since I was born in 82
schools are teaching kids america and other western countries are some of the most oppressive meanwhile on the world's stage they are practically a peaceful paradise
@@ABagOfLag this. Its mostly white people that have a deranged amount of guilt about the past that they feel like they need to drag the whole country down to atone for their great great great grandfathers sins. Its honestly pathetic and fascinating at the same time. Very cult-like
I don’t know about you, but I was not taught in my (American) school that the world was a peaceful place or that no conflict was happening. If you were, that might just be an issue with your specific teachers.

Germany: *Rearms during global instability*
Beetlejuice: "and it keeps getting funnier, EVERY.SINGLE.TIME.ISEEIT."
America: no longer suplies Europe with oil
Europe: **Oh boy here I go killing again.**
@StrategicFooyoo Not really, if gulf oil is closed and Russia decides to stop selling oil to europe at the same (or similar times) about half of all global oil production is effectively neutered. The miss match in supply and demand will result in poorer better armed countries (turkey, India, Italy, Greece) raiding unprotected commerce. Especially if oil hits 150+ a barrel (it becomes cheaper to pirate than purchase).
The only countries that are able to secure these shipping lanes either have a large blue water navy with aircraft carriers, or are in a geographic position that will be to its advantage (UK, France, India, Japan for example). Europe, Africa and China will feel the brunt of this, as they are at the end of supply chains and would have to completely overhaul there navies (which can take decades) to avoid de industrialisation.
US trade is largely done with NAFTA and CAFTA. Any exceptions include trade that is largely irrelevant to the US economy (less than 2% of gdp, which can be easily replaced). The US has zero incentive to protect shipping lanes and the rest of the world is unable to. Its a big rip for most countries that are successful artificially.
@StrategicFooyoo Lets hope that if this occurs, electric cars catch on lmao. TSLA to the moon.
@StrategicFooyoo It comes back to game theory. Sure it would be ideal if all sides get along. However, when people demand more of a recourse than what can be sourced, countries expand into empire (or sanction privateers). Its a race to the bottom, but it cannot be avoided so long as people continue to rely on oil for plastics, fertilizer (some countries could see agricultural output half without oil), Transportation and military.
@StrategicFooyoo Nah russia and gulf states (especially opec) structure there economy in such a way that they can strategically stop selling oil for geopolitical purposes (think 1971) (or in the event of iran closing the straits). Russia in paticular has a fairly diversified economy (relative to other oil producers) and could survive for decades on reserve cash. It is in russias interests to cripple europe, especially if they are 'democratically reclaiming' land in eastern europe.
The US has domestic oil production that is sufficient to fuel itself. Even if shale production decreases (unlikely) canada and mexico export more than enough oil for the US.
Europe, China and Africa will be the real losers in this scenario. UK, France and japan will probably be able to 'democratically secure' an oil source in Africa (or the middle east). But aside from that its game over for most countries.
@StrategicFooyoo The US is no longer interested in invading countries for oil (even if it is intended for the US market), let alone for other countries. Why would the US keep oil lanes open if they dont benefit from it? Invading iran or russia may benefit europeans or the Chinese, but not America.

Last time I clicked on a video so fast, World War One was still called the Great War.
14:27 yes and it didn't take long for Putin to act very recklessly.
How did you accurately predict Russia would act recklessly? That’s insane you predicted that a year ago
Because it has acted recklessly for quite a while? I mean it was 2020 when he made the video, and Russia was occupying a chunk of Ukraine for 6 already.
The entire video:
"There will be WARS EVERYWHERE!!!!!11"
The end of the video:
"~~Thanks for watching and have a great day!~~"
It's more like a war and the proxy conflicts that lead to it.
Shakes magic 8 ball
Expect Russia to act aggressively in the years to come
people like to pretend their country is better than another. but in reality their country is just weak in terms of military. the super powers, Russia, China, USA are the main bullies and will continue to be until they r no more. Just as the European powers once were until the world wars set them behind
I expect the US acting aggressively.
@@diegoaespitia are you responding to a deleted comment? This doesn't have much to do with the original comment
Unnecessary if West and China will still hate each other.
If China become pro-Western or West become pro-China, then that should be done will be done.
Yes Putin wants the USSR back expect him to be the white Mugabe! Never relinquishing power!
New war just drop,
Well, here we are with the start of Russian Imperial war starting with Ukraine and not entirely through Belarus. A domino effect so to speak
Honestly, as a bachelor hungry for a master's and a PhD in global security, I'd love to have a talk with you. I've never been more absorbed by a YouTue video in my life. Wonderful work!

@@gvibration1 that is actually excessively easy. nuclear power is litterally a glorified way to boil water. adapt you plant so that the steam recondensates away from the salt it left behind and you're good. unfortunately no one wants to see nuclear power plants in the hands of third world failed states.
My God, I have finally found someone talking about the current benefits and drawbacks of the American Hegemony that doesn't come off as hopelessly blinded by their own biases(or at least attempting to account for them). I came to this video expecting a fun thought process on how the current political climate will grow in the future and how environmental changes may impact/drive the changes of the future. I got that in spades with this video and an actual intelligent thought on the American world order that was also relevant to the discussion.
Well Done.
