#Thucydides began his work by developing a theory of #environmental influences . He maintained that because #Attica had a soil that was thin, dry and relatively infertile it was seen as unattractive to potential #invaders, saving it from #war and preserving it from #depopulation

[Murat Devres @HistoryEmergen1]

#Herodotus recorded a number of remarkable #changes made in the #natural #environment by #human #activity. For instance he believed that massive works like #bridges and #canals demonstrated an overreaching human pride that might call for #punishment from the #gods.

"The real lesson here is not that the U.S. is finished and China is going to be the dominant power of the 21st century. The reality is that all the superpowers -- the US, the PRC and the EU -- have been exposed as highly dysfunctional." @NAR https://t.co/huGXEGFzz5
