1750 to 2100 Timeline

"Until September 11, 2001 the possibility that the United States would be fighting a major war in the first decade of the 21st century was a remote one for most Americans, if they thought about it at all.

But America's history of conflict gives a very clear indication of a significantly increased probability that the country would be involved in at least one major war between 2004 and 2026.

This increased probability was reported as early as 1995 in an analysis of major trends and events since 1750. The first edition of a timeline of these trends and events was published in 1997. In 1998 an expanded version of the timeline was published. Both editions clearly noted that the United States had a significantly greater probably of being at war during the period from 2004 to 2026."
