I agree with the, IF Yellowstone Caldera blew, The US would never be the same. World Politics would change in an instant. I wouldn't even try to predict what would happen, as far as other countries. I think most of the US would probably go into instant shutdown.

There wouldn't be a US after it blew. Yellowstone would knock out the entire western half of the US. Related geological effects might include a repeat of the 8.+ magnitude 1812 Earthquakes centered around Memphis Tn which could finish the rest of the MidWest.

China and Japan would become the foremost economic powers on the planet with Russia's nuclear arsenal placing it into the status of Great Powers. Hmmm ... maybe similar to the world status of pre WW1 with Great Powers instead of Super (US / USSR) or hyper powers (US post cold war).

I wonder if this could explain why there is no mention of the Eagle in the Bible (Revelations)?

The young cubs of the lion (England) are mentioned in Ezekiel. I think that is probably the US, Australia, and England's other settlements. However, by that point, all she does is wage a diplomatic protest "what? You've come to take a spoil?" We're either so tied up elsewhere or we just don't matter any more at that point.

Revelations
6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.
8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, LORD God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.
9 And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever,

We have a place at the hand of God, but perhaps not at the final battle.

Unless we are the Babylon in Rev 18:

We are a polyglot nation, reminiscent of ancient Babel/Babylon.

22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee;

Every industry is being exported at an alarming rate. Textiles, IT, Semiconductors, Steel, Chemical, etc. Freaking Gilroy - the Garlic Capital of the World - is importing Chinese garlic!

At this rate it won't be long before we hear the silence of the millstones.

Having driving off most industry, California is now planning on putting air polution controls on agriculture. Great. Farm without plowing, chemicals, or burning.

That'll work...

You know, that is the scary part. With the dome under the lake rising in Yellowstone, and Bible prophecy seemingly coming true under our very noses, one wonders if this will be why the United States will no longer be the prime economic power in the world, during the 'final times'.
