2b. The Great Beasts.
THE GREAT BEASTS
The four beastly powers are described with distinguishing details.
1.A Lion with Eagle`s wings.
2.A ferocious Bear with 3 ribs in its mouth.
3.A winged Leopard with four heads.
4.A terrifying beast.
When we see what Great Federations have great power and authority in our world today, and then look at the emblems they are well known for, we can see who each of these `beasts` represent.
1.A Lion with Eagle`s wings - Great Britain & America. Great Britain was the first great power to arise in contemporary times. America came from there and `broke off` and became independent.
2.A ferocious Bear with 3 ribs in its mouth - Russia. Russia came from the Soviet Union which was the second great power to arise, after WW1. It devoured country after country into a great Federation.
3.A winged Leopard with four heads - The European Union. This Union began after WW2 with 4 leaders/heads of countries.
4.A terrifying beast - Islam. This great power has yet to come to its full potential.
