START OF THE RACE TO END POVERTY BEING THE MOST VALUABLE
GOAL UN When people first met in san francisco 1945 it appeared that china and 7 of the biggest G8 empires (naysayer Stalin's Russia)
agreed there would never be peace without mapping a post-colonial and post-industrial world. Almost everyone agreed it could
be a good peace-loving thing that the dollar had replaced the first global currency the pound. The pound represented one island
nation (Britain) of 1% of people attempt to adminstrate the planet, while the dollar had grown thanks to 5% of humans development
scaled to a continent (USA). In the first half of the 20th C, This new world of the USA had twice kindly intervened in the
old world to end wars. Plan 1- reboot 7 "empire" economies that agreed, as soon as possible each empire needed to
free and help develop former colonies (numerically the majority of nations which had often been bodrered off in ways that
suited empires but left borders eg who shared rivers in conflict)- eg nearly two out of three humans were living on contient
of Asia and one of the accidents of europen part of old world discovering rest of planet from 1500 was those with biggest
ships by mid 1800s britain and japan trapped continental asians in poverty while taking anything they wanted from the
continent of asia- even as the west raced to the moon most asians had no access to electricity grids. (Help make more detailed
maps of geonomics crisis of 1945- eg the land bridge of the old world linking its 3 subcontitents consists mainly of desrts
and oil as well as being the crossroads: - SW to the huge continent of africa where about 10% of people
live, to asia's majority of human race,
- East and North to Asia
- NW to Europe where 4 Western Europe nations
empoires had been in the midst of 20th c wargaming - ieIsland of Britain: on contient of Germany France, Italy- By start of
20th C Western Europe also comprised several smaller but highly developed nations (eg Nordica, Austria, Switzerland..) which
had by now mainly ended Empiredom and who had tried to stay neutral in the second world war's destruction
The way colonial world trade routes developed often focus on West and East. This sometimes distracts from the
need to map North South exchnages. If you start in the north, you see two huge contientals roofs much of whose land is iced
up (hard to support much population but potentially huge in energy and minerals) - Canada
which with Alaska forms the roof to America (USA and further south latin america's centre and south)
- Russia
which with Nordica forms to the roof to Eurasia (and further south : africa)
Ironically at a norther point,
Russia is only 50 miles (Bering St) west of America (Alaska). The Arctic circle nations may well be the make or break key
to climate even as the cultural bridge between Russia and the rest is as big on UN's 75th birthday year of 2020 as in 1945.
Its also worth noting that most of the great tech innovations of the last 75 years have spiralled out of the Asia Pacific
region - ie teh west coast of usa and the aster coastal belts of Asia including Japan and other leading tech islands , and
Korea and China. Although USA and western europe amount for about 15% of people, the strange thing about the global dolar
economy is it tends to make rules with western europe, while 705 of human growth depends on america-asian realtionships.Because
of technology the world economy is now about 20 times larger than 1945. In other words 95% of human development has happened
during the 75 years of the UN. That probably explains why its very difficult to teach children how to map. In the decription
above we have left out 2 huge arhipalgos indoensia and Philipines, the whole continet of Australasia and the fact that almost
a quarter of nations are small islands unlike the Uk that dominate eurasia from the north west and Japan which from world
war 2 quickly linked in tech to taiwan hong kong singapore, korea and at China's request from 1978 the East of Eurasia which
with one fifth of people is now larger in every sort of human impact on the globe than West Europe. The
UN is supposed to keep the peace, as well as ajudicate over trading rules and tech standards as well as invite the younger
lhalf of the world to be teh first sdg generation. That makes 2020 75th coming togtehr of antions in new york spet 2020 potentially
thye most imporant event for new action learning networking (education and etch around te world) in bot the hersotor and future
of our species | ...........................................................The Preamble
