In certain parts of AL and MS and other states, the Civil War is still being fought 140 years later, so don't look for peace and quiet in Europe soon.
Aren't the Sunis and the Shiites in Iraq still fighting about soon dispute from the early 1000s?
Aren't the jews and arabs still fighting about who knows what?
These disputes - all of them - are kept alive by so-called leaders for the leaders' self preservation and power grabbing.
Instead of fighting, all of these groups should start working, educating, researching, making, and selling. South Korea is a rich country, making and selling stuff to the world. North Korea is a worthless poor country, still trying to fight everybody - 50 years after the peace agreement.
Germany, Japan, and Italy - the WWII losers - are prosperous nations which have rebuilt themselves. The USSR - among the WWII winners - wasted their resources on socialism and a police state. They've sent men to space, but can't feed their people.
