Just because the West is about to go down doesn't mean a greater civilization is to take it's place. After Rome fell the world regressed. It was in this power vacuum that Mohammed saw his chance. But still, compared to Rome, the Islamic empire, though vast ,was second rate. We are approaching a new Dark Ages. So it goes. I wonder what date future historians will pick as the "Fall of the Western World"?
