That the world will some day be ruled by a single government has been foreseen by visionary thinkers for well more than a century, and this article quotes a number of these predictions. However, there has been less agreement as to how a world state would be achieved. Some have held that it would occur through peaceful and voluntary means. Others have argued that it could only result—as have all other political coalescences in the past—through military means. This article sides with the latter view and cites the war in Iraq as perhaps a small step in that direction. Finally, several projections are discussed that attempt to predict when the political unification of the world will occur.
