Ozymandias

Ok buddy, the romans totally didnt rely on the foederati (and actively defended their borders in a symbiotic relationship) to prevent migratory hordes from destroying them 2000 years ago.130 years is a drop in the bucket compared to "might is right" and "survival of the fittest" for the last 6,000 years. China hasn't been around for well over a thousand years because they were defending other people's borders. No they were defending their own borders and they let the rest of the world go to hell while they built the Great Wall of China and got fat
Whatever you wanna believe, like i said.
