Autopsy of Human History

Ecclesiastes 1:9 says: What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. Harry S Truman says: There is nothing new in the world except the history you do not know. Well, until now, I haven’t found any book with examples or case studies that fits these quotes. For example, what event is similar to World War I or French Revolution? I believe a lot of people may have this kind of Déjà vu about similarities in history, like Pax Romana, Pax Hispanica, Pax Britannica, and Pax Americana. As you can see, they even got named in the same way, so why not compare them? It’s commonly recognized by the historians that the Modern Times consists of 4 stages or ages: Pax Hispanica, Age of Enlightenment, Pax Britannica, and Pax Americana, separately driven by Spain (ESP), France (FRA), Great Britain (GBR) and USA. I’m not happy with an age begins in something like 1800s, I insist on finding its specific starting year and ending year. Type I civilization is defined as the core civilization which has its own commonly recognized hegemony or age. Edge year refers to a year, such as 1916, 1793, 1670 and 1547, based on the 123-yrs-cycle. Edge event refers to what happens on an edge year, which can be seen as new civilization replacing the previous.
