Obviously it's not 100%, but I do think there are nontrivial parallels in that you have great powers that through their massive success become soft and complacent and slowly yield ground to upstarts that on paper shouldn't be able to compete with them. We do still have time to avoid the same fate as Western Rome, but that would require us to manifest a unity and a grit that I'm not sure this generation has in it.
