This is what happens when the "Masters of Mankind" delude themselves into thinking that they are omnipotent, and historical precendence has no bearing on the conduct of a given State's Affairs globally. King Phillip and Count Duke De Olivares of Spain thought they could afford never ending ventures in the new world. It simply ended badly for those in Spain and its acquired colonies. George Santayana's qoute should be plaster casted on to the front entrances of every school: "if you do not learn from history, you are doomed to repeat it."
