As everyone knows, since the end of World War II, there has been no major change in the overall pattern of the world, and although there have been continuous local wars, the boundaries of various countries have not changed much on the whole, and the general trend is peace and development.
However, now a strong voice of discord suddenly sounded, and Russia's **Putin signed** decree: the property sold and the land exchanged during the Tsarist Empire and the former Soviet Union are illegal and must now be registered for repossession.
Then Poland, parts of Finland and even Germany and Eastern Europe, including Alaska in the United States, should be among them.
Putin's meaning is obvious, as long as the places occupied by the Russians in history or involved in the footprints of the Russians are the assets of the Russians, they are all within the scope of recovery.
Subsequently, Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev immediately echoed, he posted on social ** that he was waiting for Alaska's return at any time, and claimed that "war is inevitable."
If this is the case, and all countries take back the land of 100 or even 150 years ago, won't the world be a mess?
In the history of our country, there is a Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period of more than 400 years. From 770 to 221 BC, there were frequent wars and annexations between the vassal states, and the small states were destroyed one after another, while the large ones became more powerful, and finally the six kingdoms were unified by Qin Shi Huang.
At that time, our "world" was very small, and so many countries had been fighting for more than 400 years, and Mencius said that "the Spring and Autumn Period was an unrighteous war", that is, all countries were fighting for land and population.
And now the world has entered the era of a global village, there are nearly 200 countries in the world, if the major powers rely on their own force to recover the land in history, isn't it going back to the Warring States era!
Not to mention that the Persian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and fascist Germany almost occupied Europe, and the militaristic Japan also occupied most of China.
As a result, there may be no room for small countries to survive, and gradually several big countries will compete, and then they will become kings, and finally see who will unify the "world"!
Of course, the Russians have always wanted to be the last hegemon.
