Here are the 10 countries that may not survive the next 20 years

you are correct but I decided I would see what others have to post on the subject

[Son House]

Consider he said about the economy ‘brought back from the brink’ which ‘brink’ of what in question (never questioned) is mortgage defaults Democrat legislation is responsible for.

New reality is we may now be at the ‘brink’ of civilization due to Islamic theocracy. Is there any more supreme leaders he would like to quote to the American people? (see Iran fatwa on nuclear bombs) (Media crickets...)

[DannyTN]

Spain Spain won't cease to exist. They'll just vote someone else into office. Unless they socialists set up a totalitarian state, but that would probably take more than a decade to overthrow.

North Korea Chia head will continue to execute family and former girl friends. I don't see change coming.

Belgium I don't see it. If they had a Muslim vs Christian problem like Serbia then yeah, but French vs Dutch? I don't see a break up in that.

China China is not going to cease to be a state just because their people can't breathe. For one, Trump is going to raise the tarriffs, which will reduce their industries and their pollution. They might become more democratic if people get fed up enough. But they will be a state even if they start a war and get their butts kicked.

Iraq Pretty much not a state. Thanks to Obama.

Libya Already not a state. Again, thanks to Obama. They seem to be basing this on name and not functionality.

ISIS Blown up by Russia, but not a state.

UK If Scotland failed what makes them think the others would leave?

US Alaska and Texas are not going to leave the union. For one Trump is coming which will reduce the desire to leave and two, to leave you have to have consent of Congress. And they've not been nearly enough pain in the butt for Congress to agree to that.

Maldives No Global Warming hoax is not going to sink the Maldives.

Bottom line, unless there is Muslim separation movements, or Muslim vs Muslim wars, or Muslim conquests, I don't see much change in the future. Pollution, starvation, won't destroy a state, but could result in leadership change.

Global Warming is definitely a hoax but the Seas are rising. I contribute it to the accumulation of river delivered sediment.

[Mears]

“Oh great. A billion chinamen swarming to america for safety.”

At least Chinese contribute,they don’t take.

We could do worse-—a lot worse.

Hopefully they will have to get over a Trump wall.

Thanks Leaning Right.

1. Spain... growing unemployment levels and a national debt to GDP ratio at 94 per cent... regional powers may break the nation into two separate regions...

   Catalan independence is a possibility, and as a better-off part of Spain, that national debt problem would increase for Spain, even if Catalans had to carry off part of the debt as their fair share and price for independence. Spain squandered its massive wealth obtained mostly in Spanish-speaking American colonies of its past, yet it resents the UK's grip on Gibraltar; there's a slow uptick in its muzzie population, which could bring about damage in the future, but as Spain's not well off financially compared with much of the EU, the big wave of muzzie trash will bounce to Germany, France, and the UK.

2. North Korea... lack of technological advancements... not have enough resources... internal civil war that has been bubbling since time immemorial.

   The illegal Pyongyang regime will endure a while yet. Because of the unflagging support it receives from our enemies China and Russia, literally the only way to get rid of it is to behead it, and annihilate the Nork thug army.

3. Belgium... Wallonia and Flanders... eventually split into two separate countries...

   Could happen, but wouldn't be a bad thing. Think about it -- would you rather see two Belgiums, or two of any other country in the EU?

4. China... Pollution... Chinese government has estimated that there will not be any drinkable water left by 2030... 250,000 people die prematurely in China every year.

   China's lifted the one-child limit law from the Mao era, but the damage is done. China's population will continue a long slide over the next forty years, and over the next twenty the average age of the population will continually rise. [The World a Century from Now]

5. Iraq... ISIS... Kurds... Shiites...

   Iraq doesn't exist right now. Neither does Syria.

6. Libya... divided into three regions...

   Neither does Libya.

7. ISIS... its list of enemies is constantly growing... Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Iran... United States-led coalition...

   "Algeria and Libya will finally have pissed off everyone else on the continent and have ceased to exist." [The year 2034, your predictions?]

8. United Kingdom... Scotland failed to obtain its independence in 2014... has inspired Wales and Northern Ireland to... seek autonomy or independence.

9. Civil War is deeply rooted in the history of the United States...

   No, it isn't. Full of ****.

10. Global warming has caused gradual rise in sea levels and the Maldives may be among the first countries to sink into the growing oceans.

    No, it hasn't, it doesn't exist -- but if it were to happen, the Islamofascist backwater and hellhole would not be missed.

The Maldives:

Invaded/occupied by Argentina?
