Donald Trump is remaking the Middle East in ways only comparable to Alexander the Great.From Turkey and Egypt to Pakistan and India, a new geopolitical order is emerging across the crossroads of civilization. In this episode, Mike explores how President Trump’s diplomacy is reorganizing the region around sovereign cooperation, economic development, and the rejection of endless imperial conflict.But this transformation goes far beyond the Middle East.From the Abraham Accords and a potential “new Yalta” to the collapse of globalization and the revival of sovereign nation-states, this episode examines the deeper historical forces shaping the next world order.Drawing on Xenophon, Alexander the Great, Plato, and the American System of political economy, this is a sweeping look at how civilizations rise, how empires manipulate history, and why big thinking is essential during moments of global transformation.If the old global order is collapsing, what comes next?00:00 Intro01:08 Xenophon and the Persian Empire02:37 Alexander the Great and the Middle East03:55 Trump’s Regional Coalition05:08 The Abraham Accords06:18 Expanding the Battlefield07:03 Alexander’s Empire and Eurasia08:15 A New Yalta09:32 Sovereign Nations vs Globalism10:32 The Power of Big Thinking11:02 Plato and the Square Root of Two12:05 Liberalism, Faith, and Civilization13:00 Final Thoughts SUPPORT PROMETHEAN ACTION OVERVIEWS!Keep Promethean Action Overviews 100% independent for just $10 a month.Your subscription funds every deep-dive into the principles of Western civilization that the mainstream would rather bury — sovereign nations, creative reason, the dignity of man.If you’re serious about reviving what made Western civilization great and want analysis that doesn’t bow to the consensus, subscribe now and stand with us.
