History looks back at previous attempts to forge empires out of peoples of different cultures with different perspectives and ways of living with he lure of protection and progress where eventually every one becomes big happy supportive family.
Sadly after a few years of bad management progressive Ideas are squashed and micromanagement of citizens kicks in and the empire gets unstuck then dog eat dog corruption sets in as the end gets closer.
Has anyone checked on our own progress? I wonder when I hear kiwi voters saying they vote for the party that gives them the most, has our education system not taught them civics ?
