Benin

Benin, officially the Republic of Benin and formerly Dahomey, is a country in West Africa. It is bordered by Togo to the west, by Nigeria to the east and by Burkina Faso and Niger to the north. A majority of the population live on its small southern coastline on the Bight of Benin, part of the Gulf of Guinea in the northernmost tropical portion of the Atlantic Ocean. The capital of Benin is Porto-Novo, but the seat of government is in Cotonou, the country's largest city and economic capital. Benin covers an area of approximately 115,000 square kilometers, with a population of approximately 9.98 million. Benin is a tropical, sub-Saharan nation, highly dependent on agriculture, with substantial employment and income arising from subsistence farming.
The official language of Benin is French. However, indigenous languages such as Fon and Yoruba are commonly spoken. The largest religious group in Benin is Roman Catholicism, followed closely by Islam, Vodun and Protestantism.

The End of the World

In 1989, political scientist Francis Fukuyama predicted that society had reached <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.jstor.org/stable/24027184?read-now=1&amp;refreqid=excelsior%3A3e6dacf5ab32200b034adc5f1576878d&amp;seq=13">the End of History</a>. Not that the world or human life as a whole would end, but instead he claimed the West had won a major victory. The world had tried and totally exhausted all viable political and economic systems, and it was clear Western Liberalism was the undeniable victor. The universalization of Western liberal democracy was “the final form of human government” and “the end point of mankind’s ideological evolution.”&nbsp;At the time, it wasn’t necessarily a wild proposition. That’s not to say Fukuyama didn’t have his detractors and critics, but it was clear Western liberal democracy had won the Cold War. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/soviet-union-collapsed/michael-muir">Communism had failed</a>. Its two largest proponents had seen <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/1989-and-the-birth-of-state-capitalism-in-china-11559313717">major ideological shifts towards Western ideals</a>. Democracy and the concept of individual freedom had been adopted worldwide. And you could find items of consumerist Western culture in even the most remote villages around the world.&nbsp;Fukuyama believed that any and all human “contradictions” and ideological disagreements could be solved within the confines of Liberal democracy. It was not that there would be no more conflict, but there were no other historical and ideological forces that could drive history forward.But, unfortunately, we live in the 21st Century, and history looks far from over. Authoritarian governments have taken power across the world: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-43361276">China</a>, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.geopoliticalmonitor.com/hungary-authoritarianism-by-another-name/">Hungary</a>, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.nytimes.com/article/myanmar-news-protests-coup.html">Myanmar</a>, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-60508171">Nicaragua</a>, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.dw.com/en/how-the-taliban-are-eliminating-women-in-afghanistan/a-61736998">Afghanistan</a>, just to name a few. One such authoritarian government has even <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-56720589">invaded a free, independent, and democratic nation</a> while other powers around the world stand on the sidelines in fear that <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/18/opinion/america-military-ukraine.html">full military intervention will only make matters worse</a>. But also in countries that not only claim to embody Western liberal democracy but also actively worked to spread the ideology, individual freedoms <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/19-states-enacted-voting-restrictions-2021-rcna8342">are being restricted</a> and even their foundational democratic systems <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.npr.org/2022/01/03/1069764164/american-democracy-poll-jan-6">are under attack</a>.If history progresses in stages towards a defined end, then it may feel like history is currently in a free fall.

This time, however, it became the global standard and for the last 30 years has been the foundation of the world as we know it. And threats are everywhere: A Cold War superpower trying to regain its former glory <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.csis.org/blogs/technology-policy-blog/russia-ramps-global-elections-interference-lessons-united-states">through any means necessary</a>. An economic powerhouse attempting to assert itself as the new dominant nation <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://democracyjournal.org/magazine/62-special-issue/chinas-assertive-authoritarianism/">through its own autocratic systems</a>. A small yet unpredictable nation unafraid to develop and <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-61331859">test their nuclear arsenal</a>.Or maybe the threat comes from <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/26/us/politics/mccarthy-republican-lawmakers.html">something a little closer to home</a>.But that begs the question, if the system fails on a global level, which country or countries do you think will be responsible for ending it?
