1913 to 1920

This was a distinct time period that was the last seven years of the American Empire's first 144 years.  It encompassed many important events which were precursors for what was to come during the American Empire as well as the western nations. When the first 144-years of an empire is complete, the beast transfers from the previous empire, in this case Great Britain, and the central city of the previous empire also transfers to the new empire. This transition occurred from London to New York City in the wake of World War I. This time period is considered by most historians as the height of the British Empire. Many of the important events surrounding this time period involved most of the 10 powers of government, referred to in Revelation as the 10 horns on the beast. Past empires also saw dramatic changes as monarchies in various parts of Europe crumbled and were replaced by fragile republics, such as Germany's Weimar Republic. This was a time of tremendous political upheaval and transitioned America into what many refer to as the "Roaring 20s," ending abruptly with the Great Depression.
