I tot all countries experience periods of prosperity and periods of turmoil.
Like Japan rebuilt itself after world war 2 into a strong nation but now got many economic problems.
USA used to be strong nation but now the dollar becoming weaker. Jobless rates also high. Got many economic problems like budget dficiet etc.
All countries got periods of prosperity and periods of turmoil.
Like China used to be strong and properous in Tang dynasty but Qing dynasty bullied by foreigners like Japan, USA,UK and other countries. Qing dynasty became weak now PRC became stronger nation.
UK also got many colonies in Its prime but now no more. Pound dropped alot too.
Some euro member countries also experienced downfall recently.
Lastime I heard phillipines economy not bad under Marcos but now quite chaotic and unstable.
Of course human life also got periods of prosperity and bad luck.
Some ppl middle age their luck fall, before that prosperous.
