People are in such disbelief that white people could accomplish this that they invented the "Tartarian Empire" conspiracy because they can't accept that white people peaked in the 19th century. So they question, how did we go from 'that' to 'this' ?Well, white people invited the whole world into their nations, and thus destroyed themselves. Humanity now descends into a new dark age. It's no wonder people are starting to realize that the Austrian painter was right all along.

If you are interested in the 1893 World's Fair, you should read or audiobook "Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson. It explains how Burnham got the expo off the ground and ties in with the H.H. Holmes murders. It's one of the best historical books I have ever read/listened to.
