Considering the high predictive accuracy of famous astrologer Michel de Nostradamus, it is not surprising that people will once again seek his views with regard to the circumstances affecting the New Year. Some of his forecasts are definitely worth noting.

First, the United States will have extensive problems in managing global affairs. While Washington has established its presence worldwide, its clout has diminished due to the growing inequality of social classes and wide-scale corruption.

Next, in the Asia Pacific region, China will be taking a huge step in addressing the economic disparity across the globe. Beijing's surge as a superpower will be an uneasy sight for other established and emerging nations. The market dominance of the Chinese may be attributed to its $2 trillion international investments.

The biggest revelation will be from East Asia where the unification of North and South Korea comes as a huge shock. Only the collapse of the Kim dynasty will bring forth the needed peace and order across the peninsula. The 65-year dominance of the Democratic People's Republic will possibly end with the ouster of Dictator Kim Jong-un.

Meanwhile, in Europe, complications will arise as Germany and some EU member-nations will support a deal between Russia and Ukraine. This approach will upset Washington which has earlier called for a total turnover of Kiev from Moscow.

Still in Europe, Italy will be replacing Greece and Spain as the most troubled economy in the continent. The country's banking sector will be stricken with debt-driven complications that will cause financial upheaval.

In Latin America, ideological and policy changes will surface. The usually left-leaning region will undergo transformation that will trigger unrest along the way.

Geographical events are not the only thing emerging from the predictions of Nostradamus. Disturbing global conditions will also happen.

It is probable that the entire globe will be dependent on the cloud automation. This means that the platform will no longer be a storage computing system. Future tech procedures and functions itself will be done in the domain.

On the other hand, considering the high utilization of global energy, countries will tap solar power as an alternative against other forms of resources. Although the initiative will be helpful, there is a need to be wary against industrial organizations which will be affected by such move.

In line with this, climate change will be a precursor to upcoming misunderstandings. The grabbing of energy resources will instigate miscalculations between nations that will end up in wars.

Finally, Nostradamus prophesy 2017 says that commercial travel will get an upgrade. Space will be the new frontier as tech companies will come up with sophisticated concepts that will propel the world into the next level of advancement.
