So, here is a possible scenario.
Europe consolidates or basically rebuilds the Roman Empire, but not by conquest per se, but rather it becomes more of an economic empire comprising many of the old regions of the world that used to be under the old Roman Empire, including Israel. This presents them with a problem, Muslims. How to keep them from being assholes? Well, I guess one way would be to include them somehow in the trade, make concessions of some sort to get them to play along and not spend every waking moment trying to wipe out Israel. At some point, a world leader is going to eventually present himself and have the solution, at least for a while.
So, in this scenario, Europe becomes very strong economically, but also kinda weak, because of a few factors. One factor is, the Muslim hatred for Israel, how long can they dampen that? The other factor is, other nations not in the, "Empire," are probably going to suffer at least economically, if not also in other ways. For example, Russia, they are already sort of limping along now, what kind of pressure would the above scenario put on them? Somewhere down the line they are going to join up with most of the major Muslim players in the middle east, and attack through Israel and then sweep across North Africa, at which point, it seems that someone, the kings of the east, most likely China, is going to move west and the two armies will clash.
There is a point, not exactly sure where in the timeline of events it happens, but it seems that an enemy, which I think is going to be Gog and Magog and some others, is going to attack Israel and get totally wrecked because God is going to step in and protect Israel.
With the current events in Europe these days, I can see it starting to form. Some likely names to keep an eye on are Hapsburgs, Roths, Guttenburgs and a few others, I'll let you decide. We may be in for a very hairy ride in the next few decades. Hopefully, I will take the twinkling of an eye route, but who knows.
