great civilisations of all time

how many human civilisations still around today are:

1. a million years old = 0
2. a 100,000 years old = 0
3. 10,000 years old = 0
4. 6,000 years old civilisations = 0
5. 3,000 years old civilisations = 0
6. 1,000 years old civilisations = we can argue but the number is less than 10.

anyway human civilisations have all had a worrying tendency to die suddenly due to:

1. new resource acquisition and extraction
2. population explosion
3. unsustainable resource extraction
4. population collapse

you might point to conflict, or natural disasters as causes as well - but those just hasten they unevitable. on their own they are unable to bring healthy civilisations down.

conclusion - a change is coming.
