revival of nationalist militarism
in Europe, and encouraging

is even working now as Russia

not want to wage war with
NATO. As in the treaty it states,
"'an armed attack against one

considered an attack against
all"

previous empires and created
something that would've stopped
threats like the Roman Empire and
the Soviet Union.
