The same kind of disruption occurred in the Mohammedan world. The Empire of the Caliph broke up into many fragments, which, though nominally re-united under the Turks (except for Morocco and Spain), never again acquired any real unity. It is difficult in the history of the world hitherto to discern any longterm movement either towards more cohesion or towards more rivalry. A mere alternation is all that seems discernible. And this is still true in the most recent history: Austria-Hungary has been disrupted, the British Empire has fallen apart, and even the Indian peninsula, which might have been expected to preserve its unity, has been divided into two by no means friendly States. It is easy to see that this is not the end of the story, but it is the point that the story has reached at the present moment. |
