Greece will be a great place again soon - 2020 - due to reglaciation, forcing hordes of northern Europeans to move south and pay extorquerationate prices to the local yokels. It will be more temperate instead of sweltering hot.

As the interglacial began, Egypt did very well but got too hot, then southern Europe did well, with Greece, then Rome being a big deal. But the centre of power kept moving north as tropics expanded, other than during The Little Ice Age which gave the northerners a hard time, especially the Mongols who had been doing very very well during the warming of the 13th century and on.

At the end of The Little Ice Age, England ruled the world [give or take a bit].

Anglophobes like ElM are going to enjoy 2020. The Anglos are going to experience a big freeze in north America and UK. It won't be all that good for Swedes either. Sweden is still geologically rising after the last glaciation melted. Being buried under kilometres of ice won't be fun.
