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.

I wish that we could go to the pension healthy and without worries. That we do not have to work until 70 and can not enjoy our life with the family because the work is vital. Working people should be paid according to their performance and be able to retire at a reasonable age. Every worker deserves it and I hope the times change again.

Well, I hope that it is better than now, that our children, grandchildren and future descendants, have achieved a totally different life and above all better than the one we have today. There is work, housing, let's be more friendly to each other, more security on the streets

In 2025, the war in Ukraine ends and it becomes a member of NATO and the EU. Britain returns to the union and adopts the euro. Moldova, Armenia and Georgia (Georgia) are taking the European course. EU defence is becoming a concern for the whole EU, there are no national armies, there is a common EU army - young people can choose where to serve (at home or in another EU country - a kind of exchange). The euro is introduced throughout the EU. Transportation by train, boat and ferry is improving, thanks to the use of green energy. Public transport is plummeting (the route network is expanding) to encourage people to give up cars. Europe's independence from foreign markets is increasing (production is returning from underdeveloped countries to Europe) and domestic consumption is increasing, similar to the US. A completely new union is being formed with the US, and cooperation with Russia is slowly starting (there is no dictatorship in Russia, it is on the path of democracy). In many areas, there is more freedom and Member States have greater rights to solve problems where they occur (subsidiarity principle) and the "Brussels dictatorship" disappears.
