It's rearing its head, but is not dominant. Tribal nationalism is a reaction to the fact that old borders are crumbling, seemingly suddenly with the migrations in the wake of recent revolutions and civil wars. Everything as I predicted. I think that trend will continue into the next saeculum, but as it goes along it will diminish, and I don't know if it will be the its central conflict. The Green Revolution continues to be the nub of the matter, and as the 2T dawns it will take center stage and become dominant, no doubt with some resistance. The environment remains the central issue of our time, into the next seaculum, and whether people realize this or not doesn't really matter.
