This second volume begins with the picture of the "glory" of this new dynastic- tribal alliance of European monarchs and their fired-up nationalist people ... armed with massive industrial might enabling them to take over massive portions of the rest of the world (Asia and Africa). But this energy turns Europeans on each other when finally there are no more overseas lands to capture ... resulting in the disastrous "Great War" (1914-1918). But then, having been the biggest of the losers in that war, the Germans - under Hitler's leadership - plan a comeback, intending to rule all of Europe. An even greater disaster then results ... and most of Europe is destroyed (1939-1945). However, this finally moves a war-wearied Europe to focus on forming a post-nationalist European Union ... built on Secular-Humanist moral foundations.
This also brings forward to global dominance both "Democratic" America and "Socialist" Stalinist Russia ... and a resulting "Cold War" between these two military-industrial giants. The Russian plan is simple: to bring much of the world under Stalin's bureaucratic machine based in Moscow. For America, the goal is to spread "democracy" by bringing down various dictatorships found around the "Third World." But grand tragedies result, as America fails to understand that the "democracy" it wants to model abroad had been long built in America on its own deep Christian moral roots ... and that bringing down foreign regimes does not automatically lead to the splendid political scene that America expects, but instead to political chaos. Meanwhile at home, America is strangely developing its own autocratic structures ... as a massive presidential bureaucracy and a tiny Supreme Court have taken increasing command of American society from their bases in DC.
