The war in Ukraine ended in 2025. In peace, Russia was committed to war reparations and retreated within its own borders. The popularity of populists was falling at the same time, and people were no longer gullible fools relying on false promises and lies. Trump had fallen ill in 2025, and in the U.S., the crimes of his regime were uncovered and led to new elections. Trade relations in the world had returned to a time of peace and human rights were better respected. The status of the Palestinians had also improved with the advent of their own state in 2026.
The lives of ordinary people had been improved by the revolution created by artificial intelligence. The power of internet search engines had crumbled as the search diffused to small servers and open programs. Industrial automation had taken a leap and production required even less labour. In many countries, working time was reduced and people spent their increased free time on various hobbies and studies. Travel had decreased somewhat and slow travel by sailing ships and sun trains was in fashion.
Inequality among people was reduced. Extreme riches and their use of power were curtailed by laws and regulations. Overconsumption had gone out of fashion and moderation was popular overall. The energy was largely produced by wind and solar power, and nuclear energy was also used. No new sources of energy had yet been developed, but the efficiency and energy savings of the former had been greatly improved. Attempts were made to restore nature, but too large a population still limited recovery.
All in all, life was about the same as 15 years earlier, just much calmer and more rational.

Mon futur à moi
I'd like the future to be safer for everyone. That life would be cheaper. That the poor be helped. That everyone would have a job and a roof over their heads and be able to eat their fill. That there will be no more famine or sick children anywhere in the world. That everything be settled and that we all move forward together without discrimination or anything. Everyone must be able to live in peace. My perfect future would be a world where everyone could live in peace.

Un monde de rêve
The world's population has finally become wise. Everyone lives in peace. No more wars. No more unemployment. No more racism, because with everyone living in peace, people no longer need to leave their countries. And at last, we can look after the planet's future with peace of mind.

Mehr Sicherheit für unsere Kinder
That my children receive a better education than today and that the teachers work more with the children because they have smaller classes. More financial security through lower taxes. It should be enough for parents to work 1x50% and 1x100% and not both have to work full time to do everything justice.

Die Vernunft hat gesiegt
The EU has been dissolved. The national states live and act independently again. The countries live together peacefully, there is active trade without free trade agreements and shit like that. The countries have switched to popular politics. Surveillance is forbidden !!! The good advantages of digitalization are used, surveillance, hacker attacks are (bad) history. People act with reason and common sense. Professional politics has been banned! Popular politics by citizens for citizens has taken over! Countries are governed/limited by a handful of honest, reasonable people/citizens. No more corruption. Civilization, human rights have triumphed! Weapons are superfluous. People act in peace. All countries stick together. There are no more mega-rich citizens and no more mega-poor ones. SUVs, unnecessary flying, cruises are banned. Mankind has finally understood - we are all responsible! Overpopulation is falling sharply. Two-child policy at most. No more child benefit payments. Vacations at home are fun again! You can also travel abroad every 5 years. but this whole throwaway and ego society is over! economically there are small profits. The companies have survived. No more flights of fancy, fair pay for all! The world retirement age is 60 with a state-guaranteed pension (today 2000 euros net tax-free). The world pension system has been restarted. Everyone only pays in for themselves! Anyone who makes additional pension provisions (also tax-free) will have even more money available in old age. The health system has been overhauled. People and health come first. Profitability has been banned! The overpriced prices for medical equipment, tools etc. were lowered (in reality) in order to reduce the unnecessary burden on the health system. Dictatorships like China and North Korea, democratic Congo etc. were dissolved. Freedom and civilization for all! etc
