I disagree. Their are just too many parallels with the Roman Republic's late years to be dismissed. So if history truly does repeat itself, civil strife, external strife, internal partisan warring & an eventual savior (i.e. a dictator) will emerge.

There has not been any civilization - ever - in the history of civilizations - that did not think that they were exceptional . . . and invincible.
