“If we are to avoid that catastrophe [a nuclear World War III], a system of world order — preferably a system of world government — is mandatory. The proud nations someday will see the light and, for the common good and their own survival, yield up their precious sovereignty, just as America's thirteen colonies did two centuries ago.

We looked towards France, England and the U.S., to become progressive democratic republics.” AmericaBlackEnglandIndependenceDemocraticFranceIndianLatinProgressiveRepublicHeritageMexicoLiberatedLatin AmericaColonyBarbaricDemocratic Republic Author:Carlos Fuentes
