@kingofallnads ... "The Collapse of Complex Civilizations" 📙 by Dr. Joseph Tainter concludes that societies collapse when a critical mass participants no longer receive a net benefit from participation in that society. Often times wars or natural disasters serve as the catalyst for the collapse of an already corrupt society because the event forces a majority of Normies to realize the effort of rebuilding is not worth the benefits derived from that repaired society. The war or disaster is merely the catalyst. Conversely if a people value a society it will be rebuilt, even if almost entirely destroyed. (See Irish, Japanese, and more broadly European revival)
