Development of the "multipolar" world, meaning that the US will have to share space in the global order with China, India, EU, and others
Massive decline in American birth rates, compensated by rising immigration; by 2045, even the Republican party will have a heavy Latino element, most likely we will have a Latino president by then
Complete erosion of real Western culture
Canada will have a nonwhite Prime Minister by then
Significant losses of Amazon forest, burned by Brazilians to grow more soy
Europe will be virtually taken over by blacks and Islam, compounded by significant population decline, particularly in Eastern Europe
Continued war in the Middle East and North Africa, with old dictators eventually being replace by new ones
Decline of Russia, economically and demographically, with significant destabilization in the immediate post-Putin era
Nigeria will likely become the 3rd largest country in the world
We will see bloody wars of religion in Africa, Muslim vs Christian, spurred by rising population and limited resources. This will include massive insurgencies, with the wars bleeding over into other tribal and political conflicts across the continent, which ultimately hinder any possibility for real significant economic growth
The continued regression of South Africa back into it's uncivilized, precolonial state
I do anticipate that we will even see the "browning" of Israel, as liberal Israeli elements embrace the Arab elements in their country, although the Palestine situation will likely be unchanged.
Despite instability in the post-Erdogan era, Turkey will potentially emerge as a significant regional power
Unrest in the Arabian peninsula, as decreasing oil revenue and increased population will lead to malcontent against the monarchs of Arabia
Iran...who knows? The big question is whether there will be regime change or not. We will know sooner rather than later.
Afghanistan will basically be unchanged
India will be the most populous country in the world, with likely the 3rd largest economy on earth, and will act as a major regional power, which will lead to escalating tensions with surrounding countries
Pakistan will face serious internal instability with worsening economy and continued Islamic terrorism
China will be the second largest country, and may very well have the largest economy on Earth, and will significantly challenge the USA for global dominance
The Communist Party of China will likely still be in power, but will be at the height of its power (meaning it will be downhill from there), and China will become a major leader in many technological areas
North and South Korea will be united. Contrary to expectations, the population influx actually helps a South Korea with a shrinking population.
Japan will mostly likely begin creating its own military again, in the face of threats from China and decreased ability for the US to help
Vietnam will improve significantly within 25 years
Southeast Asia will be hit hard by rising sea levels and increasing Islamic radicalization, and basically become a Chinese proxy state
Australia will probably fall out of the top 20 economies of the world
In the US, record high people will live in urban areas, particularly in the South (Atlanta, Nashville, Charlotte, Texas Triangle), with fewer people living in rural areas
There will be a greater move towards socialism, yet wealth inequality will continue to remain high
People will be dumber, far dumber
We will see multiple infrastructure crises, leading to greater spending, but no results
Far decreased social interaction, with majority of social interaction taking place via electronics
Significant unemployment with introduction of self-driving cars and various forms of automation
Millenials will have very high suicide rates as they begin entering old age with no family support, overall, quality of life will get worse in the US
Drug addiction will be rampant, as will sexual deviancy
