    Short is a relative comparison.  The Roman Empire collapse took a couple of hundred years.  Compared to how long the empire was around, that was pretty short but long measured by the human life span.  Industrial Civilization has been around 270 years.    If collapse takes 50 years, that is still pretty short.  It's also hard to put a finger on when collapse has completed.  In a sense the Roman Empire never finished collapsing, it is still with us in the form of the Holy Roman Catholic Church.

    💥 decades  happen
