The royal dynasties of Germany, Austria, Russia and Turkey ended. The Global divide of socialism/freedom started. WWI didn’t begin or end war, just shifted the rationales.
Perhaps so.
The notion that one age is more moral than the previous ones is a trap I have fallen into so easy.
Evil has always been with us and is with us at this moment.
Take Russia out of the equation because what arose from that transition was an internal evil.
What screwed up that period was how the victors handled the aftermath with the abominable Treaty of Versailles.
Also, WWI ushered in the Age of Anxiety where the Biblical God became distrusted and ridiculed. The Weimar Republic made the 1960s sexual revolution look like child’s play. Hell, even the sexual degenerency right now still does not match what occurred during the Weimar Republic.
The only dynasties on your list that should of been dissolved were the Ottamans. Are you suggesting the Bolsheviks were more desirable than the Tsarists?
