However, there is also another cycle that is even more impacting. That is a 500 year cycle, which we are due to undergo around the year 2000. No-one has yet discovered any scientific reason for this cycle, but it certainly exists. In fact, it is already underway and it is the combination of these two economic cycles that is why there will be such an enormous revolution in the world economic structure as we know it. We only have to look back into history to see what happened at previous 500 year intervals, to see the proof and measure the likely impact of what we will witness.
History does repeat itself.
It was between 50 BC and 50 AD that the Christian religion began and the Roman Republic was replaced by an Empire. Around 500 AD, the Roman Empire collapsed. At 1000 AD, the Dark Ages ended to begin the Middle Ages. In 1500 AD the Modern Age really began when great changes were brought about by the invention of the printing press in around 1450. Imagine that impact of having been able to teach masses of people to read, write and communicate for the very first time.
