  > Good news all around, then I dare you to find an era of history when the dominant military power losing wars it started worked out well for anyone. Its citizens. Its neighbours. Even its enemies, who may profit in the long run from the instability but still bear its costs in the short. The best is peace. Second best is fewer folks feeling they have to blow shit up to soothe a wounded pride.
