>>4140993By anacyclosis, I’d say about 40-50 years from now. Putin really needs to groom younger successors to rule as an aristocracy when his kingship ends. I hazard that he’s waiting for the generation born in the Gorbachev and Yeltsin years to come of age, as the Brezhnev and Andropov-Chernenko born are still rather homoglobo in their outlook, and he rather wants sober and more realistic leadership to succeed him. It will fall apart again when those born in this last decade and half of the present decade come of age into leadership, softened too much by an environment of constantly improving conditions, like a Slav echo of American boomers.
The Chechen vassalage will need to have the liege-vassal ties carried over to the succeeding generations in a smooth and painless manner.
Shit, this isn’t really related to the board theme is it?
