Tom X Hart Retweeted Wrath Of Gnon
The dramatic staff increase occurs post-WWI, which was the moment the Empire ceased and American predominance began. We see, in embryo, the International Community in the League of Nations mandates. We also see the coming bureaucracy. Wilson’s world.https://twitter.com/wrathofgnon/status/983934154592083968 …

The paragraphs prior to this one is also interesting, dealing with the broad arc of history since the late 15th century. Turns out that by 1909 the ENTIRE British colonial Empire was administrated by a mere 125 men (which itself is a huge increase in staff from the late 19th c.). pic.twitter.com/FNJ7fgiacp
