It took 10 years to recover from the financial crisis of 1999, when the U.S. market collapsed and took the rest of the world with it.  The result was a polarization of  political and cultural values around the world.  The U.S., after 12 years of failed Clinton and Gore leadership, turned to a fundamental Christian bias to re-establish its values and strength.  Much of the rest of the world, to avoid dependance on a re-emerging U.S., formed the "New World Order" invisioned by Clinton and Gore.  Within the New World Order, alliances formed to contain the U.S., who found itself surrounded by hostile neighbors which included : (1) The Russians, assisting the Canadians in developing the Yukon. (2) The Indians, assisting Cuba to emerge from Marxist poverty. (3) The Iraqis, also assisting Cuba and the Carribean.  (4) The Mexicans, who whole heartedly joined the NWO and built a respectable military.  (5) The Turks, who assisted the Mexicans and had a strong presence on the Yucatan.  All of these allied together and maintained a tenuous peace with the U.S.  Can the U.S. be contained? Will there be peace?  You decide.
