We are only five days out from the release of my third book, Disunited Nations: The Scramble for Power in an Ungoverned World. As a final tease, below are the chapter headings. As you can see this book is a full-on once around the world. We’ll chop through all those countries that we’ve all thought of as the countries of the future and show how they will be anything but. But more importantly we’ll explore a few countries we rarely think about that will rise to dominate the human condition.
As an added kicker, at the end of this letter is a link to the full intro…

Zeihan’s more controversial projections will keep readers squirming, usually with pleasure….Another masterful, often counterintuitive, relentlessly entertaining geopolitical thrill ride.
Kirkus Starred Review
Zeihan integrates a wealth of information and data into lucid analyses written in accessible, boisterous prose… The result is a stimulating look into the geopolitical crystal ball.
