europe has remained a bastion of democracy in the world, indeed the only one because the usa is in the midst of decadence. europe has welcomed large masses of immigrants and has become a multicultural and secular continent. thanks to them the birth rate has improved and there are pensions and jobs for all. we have squared off with the issues of sustainability and energy independence and have freed ourselves from the usa

I would like to see a clearer cultural and physical demarcation. A world with less social interaction where you instead get to experience things through people talking and communicating directly with each other. You get to travel around and discover good and bad things yourself. Today, you should always have everything. People do not feel good about this and if everything is mixed, you lose the uniqueness. We need to go back and protect what makes Swedes Swedes etc... development is always needed but it is the village that slowly steers it on the right course. Not a few individual residents who do what they want. We need to be more sensible and question people and their motives. Reality has shown that it is not enough to ask and wait for an answer. Some people will do anything to get what they want for themselves, regardless of whether it destroys others. Some just want to have without being prepared or willing to give back to society. Even worse, some are so brainwashed that it is not even done with malicious intent but they really believe that it is right. They completely lack critical thinking because they read a single book.

The decarbonization of industry has left Europe without a source of electricity. The construction of a fusion power plant is further in its infancy, the greens have led to the closure of most nuclear power plants. Electricity is there when the wind blows or the sun shines. The continent has become virtually 100% dependent on supplies from Asia and North America (industrial goods) and South America (agricultural goods).

Oh yes, luckily everything turned out well again. Back then, my dear granddaughter, things looked bad in Germany and the world. The only really nice thing in 2025 was your birth. Oh, how happy we were. And we are still happy for you and your brother and your two cousins, who were born a little later. But you wanted to know what it was like back then. Back then, we had to vote at short notice in Germany, there were quarrels within the old government. And then the shock - because the elections didn't turn out as originally expected. There was a lot of trouble within the parties, one party was so divided that it disbanded. What a stroke of luck for humanity and especially for Germany. Yes, I know you shake your head at so much stupidity today, but people were actually dissatisfied and therefore backed the wrong horse. Back then, there was a war between Russia and Ukraine. Fortunately for all of us, a ceasefire was initially achieved with the help of Europe. The President of the United States at the time, who had no idea about politics, almost triggered the Third World War. But then Europe came together and formed a strong unit, which didn't impress the president very much. You shouldn't speak ill of the dead, but in this case it was the best thing that could have happened to the world, because this man suffered a heart attack and died before he could do any worse. At last something changed for the better in the world and in Germany, too, tax money was no longer wasted. I could tell you stories about the nonsensical things cities and municipalities did with tax money. But you wouldn't believe that. It's also too far-fetched. But now, look how nice the cities look, lots of greenery and little car traffic in the city centers. Isn't it also nice that everyone can borrow a very small e-car instead of an e-scooter to get around town? And it can even be folded up, like mini folding bikes used to be. But you don't even know them anymore. This tiny e-car doesn't go fast, so you can drive it without a license. The car industry, which was almost at the end of its tether back then, has changed tack. And look at these wheelchairs that follow patients around. That's a delight. Now even sick and old people can walk a few steps and then sit down again. And in your school everything is digital, no more 1000 copies, although you had books, but I still think it's great that the books have remained in paper form. It's also wonderful that the daily newspapers still exist. It's incredibly nice that you were taught at school how important it is to get information in a serious way. And it's great that social media is only available from the age of 18. And people now take a closer look and don't spread as much crap as they did 15 years ago. But the best thing of all is that wars and unrest in the world are a thing of the past. Instead of rattling sabres, people talk to each other, instead of just having their cell phones in front of their eyes (and that was actually the case. Some people couldn't be without their cell phones for an hour), people talk and discuss and play.
