ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Fifth Empire

Okay, so imagine there’s a really huge game of kings and queens. And in this game, there are four empires that have already played and won. Now, people believe that there will be a fifth empire that will come and win the game too.

This fifth empire is supposed to be the best and strongest of them all. It will come and make everything right, like a superhero. Some people believe it will be ruled by a really good person who will lead the world to happiness and peace.

But, here’s the thing – no one knows for sure when this fifth empire will come or who will be in charge of it. It’s just a prediction that has been around for a long time, like a story or myth. Some people believe it will happen, some people don’t.

So, it’s like waiting for a really exciting surprise that might or might not happen. Either way, we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.
