A year of prophesying

"A Year of Prophesying" by H. G. Wells is a compilation of articles displaying the author's forward-thinking opinions on worldwide subjects, mostly concerning the need for harmony and worldwide unity, after the destruction of a major war. The main topics center on reviews of government, observations of society, and inventive thoughts for a time when everyone can move past country borders. It starts with Wells's review of a group of nations that he thinks might keep the old ways of country power that have caused fights in the past, instead of encouraging real teamwork between countries. He strongly asks for a bigger union of everyone, believing that real progress toward world peace cannot come from how things are now. Wells thinks about the past setting and hopes connected to the group, but he is doubtful and pushes for a deeper change in how countries relate to each other to make world peace that lasts.
