The English Civil War raged between the Catholics and the Puritans between August 22nd, 1642, and September 1651. It included the beheading of King Charles I on January 30th, 1649. On August 22nd, 1642, King Charles I raised the royal battle standard over Nottingham Castle, thereby declaring war on his own Parliament. This war was brewing as part of the Protestant Reformation, which was funded by aristocrats who wanted to enter the banking industry, which was the monopoly of the Jews. In Christianity, the Sin of Usury prohibited lending money for interest. For decades, the workaround was to not call it interest but to effectively agree to terms that would specify a different price for a commodity. This would become the Gold Clauses that the United States Supreme Court had to nullify when FDR confiscated gold in 1934.

The English Civil War was very much part of the Protestant Reformation, which is usually considered to have begun on October 31, 1517, with the publication of Martin Luther’s Ninety-five Theses. However, there were others before him that really began as an objection to central power rule. As I have explained, there is a cycle of power concentrating and then being dispersed throughout history in the separatist movement. Indeed, state policies of centralization will inevitably lead to violent responses by the peasantry, which we are today from the political view above. Yet, not all centralization policies are the same. Historically, the structure of centralization varies, and based upon the style of how centralized power is wielded, it results in different responses.

These different types of centralized control rest entirely on the very core nature of state resources, culture, and, most importantly, how the state deals with society. If we look at the Roman Empire, they allowed each province to retain its culture, and the Romans tended to absorb the best of each society. A centralized state that tries to control and influence society with decisions made far removed from the local communities in the self-interest of the state runs the risk of revolution, which can spring from resentment typically over economic conditions and taxation that fire appears as civil unrest.

Inevitably, revolution becomes the response to centralized power. Sulla was a ruthless dictator in Rome who even wanted to kill Julius Caesar. From his death began a Private Wave. I had warned from the beginning of our current Private wave 1985.65 that we would see the first potential for a 3rd party candidate to take the presidency, and that was Donald Trump, who was sworn in precisely of the Pi target 2017.05. During this Wave #117, Cleopatra gave both to Caesar and by the end of that 8,6-year wave, they assassinated Caesar. That launched the civil war and the Battle of Actium in 31BC, officially ending the Republic, and Octavian became the first Emperor by 27BC. We too will witness a change in government by the end of this current cycle in 2037.

Look at Wave #155; this marked the rise of socialism once again and ended in January 1934 with Roosevelt’s confiscation of gold. We always get these major political changes, and the worse it becomes depending on the intensity of the centralized state’s power.

We are now in the last two waves since 2020 as we head into 2032. I believe that COVID-19 was the turning point that woke up many people to the honesty of those in power. They can “feel” the power is slipping through their fingers, and in these last years, they will increasingly become authoritarian. This is what will spark civil war not just in the United States but in many regions throughout Europe. This Soros/World Economic Forum agenda of an OPEN SOCIETY fails utterly to understand history and culture.

Historically, when you see centralized powers carry out long-term attempts to subordinate major provincial/cultural groups through mass migration to expand their power to subordinate the very population that is increasing;y becoming distrustful of government, this is always followed by violence. I warned that Emperor Valens allowed the Goths to come into Rome, which he thought would boost his military power; once they were trained in Roman tactics, they turned on the Emperor, and he died in battle, and his body was never even recovered. To this day, the word we use for “GOD” comes from the Goths – not the Roman Latin.

In the case of Britain, the Civil War of the 17th century was not unique. If we look around the world, we find that France and the Ottoman Empire, which were both agrarian empires, were hit by the Economic Crisis of the 17th Century. Much of this crisis was brought on by the Thirty Years’ War from 1618 to 1648. This was perhaps the most destructive of all conflicts in European history. The estimated number of soldiers and civilians who died from the effects of battle, famine, or disease was in the area of up to 8 million. That may not sound like a lot, but in parts of Germany, for example, the reported population declined by over 50%. Considering the loss of about 50% of the population during the 14th century due to the Black Plague, the overall reduction in the population was rather significant long-term. There were additional conflicts, such as the Eighty Years’ War, the War of the Mantuan Succession, the Franco-Spanish War, the Torstenson War, the Dutch-Portuguese War, and the Portuguese Restoration War.

To a large extent, the Thirty Years’ War was truly a continuation of the religious conflict initiated by the Protestant Reformation within the Holy Roman Empire in the 16th century. There was also a collapse in the faith in centralized government. This led to effectively the reinstiution of almost feudalism. Towns began strengthening their own fortifications and hired armies, no longer relying on protection from the centralized government. War raged, engulfing much of Europe as Sweden invaded Germany (1630–1635); the French intervention occurred between 1635 and 1648. While England was not directly involved, the Civil War also continued the Protestant Reformation.

Throughout the 1630s, tax increases were levied to pay for these wars, which led to protests throughout Spanish territories. The first sprung up in Portugal, then in the Principality of Catalonia.
Stepping back and looking at the world, we see a CONTAGION of discontent that is spreading today. Back then, we find a period of sustained conflict and civil unrest in areas ranging from Ming China to the British Isles, Tsarist Russia, and the Holy Roman Empire. All of this war-making resulted in famine and disease, which inflicted severe losses on local civilian populations not involved in the fighting.

I understood the history of the 17th century, which resulted in the Ottoman Empire attempting to invade Europe because it had been weakened internally by these wars. In 1683, they laid siege to Vienna and sought to conquer the Holy Roman Empire.

Rise of Anti-Capitalism

We are at the end of this cycle, and this polarization of left vs right is rising to the surface. This time, it is this dream of Utopia that is constantly preached from the left. What is really alarming is that a research poll in Britain from the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) confirms younger people are hostile to capitalism and hold favorable views of socialist alternatives. The new paper is very alarming. just as there was this battle over religion during the 17th century, we are facing the rising LEFT, which fully intends a violent revolution. There is a growing rejection of capitalism that has grown legs thanks to the migration crisis, just as Emperor Valens experienced. This research by the IEA was of just under 2,000 people aged between 16 and 34 in the UK, carried out between February and March 2021. They found:

• 67% say they would like to live in a socialist economic system.
• 75% agree with the assertion that climate change is a specifically capitalist problem.
• 78% blame capitalism for Britain’s housing crisis.
• 72% support the renationalization of various industries such as energy, water, and railways.
• 72% believe that private sector involvement would put the NHS at risk.
• 75% agree with the statement that ‘socialism is a good idea, but it has failed in the past because it has been badly done.

There is growing support for nationalized energy companies, using Climate Change as a camouflage for social issues. There are LEFTIST politicians who present themselves as altruistic when, in fact, they are anything but magnanimous. They pretend that whatever the state does is always for the common good. Of course, that was Joseph Stalin’s claim as well.

The two greatest experiments with Socialism that demonstrate that governments will always make decisions in their own self-interest and NOT for the common good of the people remain that of Germany and Korea. Both nations were divided between Social and Capitalism. The dreams of the LEFT have never materialized, yet it seems to be the allure of the sirens in the Iliad and the  Odyssey.

Ulysses ties himself to the mast and orders his men not to follow anything he says. I want to listen to the lure of the sirens. This is Socialism. It sounds great, but it defies humand nature because we are all not equal in talent, only in human rights.

The Puritans beheaded the King. Then Oliver Cromwell issued coins claiming to be Lord Protector, pictured with a laurel wreath as if he were the king. Once in power, they sought to retain it at all costs. Cromwell outlawed Christmas and had spies look in your windows to make sure you were not celebrating Christmas but praying. He outlawed all sports because that led to cursing. It was a crime to kiss your wife in public.

While some say Britain has taken a hard turn LEFT, simultaneously, there is also the rise of nationalism – make Britain Great Again. The riots we see in Britain are a global CONTAGION that will lead to civil war and spread around the globe, giving more cause for the need for international war. This entire migration was intended to tipp the politics to the left for their assumed that these people would vote for the LEFT since they are handed money. Like the Gother in Rome, they will turn on the hand that fed them. This was a huge mistake.
