#4 ...right up there with Emperor Justinian exhausting the resources of the Eastern Roman Empire to resurrect the fallen Western half of the old Roman Empire, leaving the place ripe to the very first wave of Muslim invaders? Time will tell.

#5 To be fair, there were also a couple of plagues about that time, which went a fair way toward reducing that part of the population capable of bearing arms... And the rest of the population as well.

#7 Fratricide. America got over that hurdle by 1865.The great immigration of the post Civil War period would be of people who either were fed up with Europe or Europe was fed up with in turn. The 1919 flu/plague would take far more than the battlefields of Europe in the years prior. Still had it in themselves to find enough manpower and resources for round two. It'll take about another hundred years to come to a final decision whether it was a wasted effort to save a suicidal society/civilization.

#8 The 1919 flu/plague would take far more than the battlefields of Europe in the years prior.

It wasn't so much the number of dead, but the 'quality' that was affected by WWI. One might call the War a particularly devious form of genetic engineering.
