| Amazing Bible Prophecies THE BIBLE AND THE NATIONS The prophecy of Daniel contains an impressive outline of the rise and fall of empires, and of the state of the nations in what used to be called "the civilized world" -- that is, the nations of Europe, the Middle East, Egypt and the North African coast, all surrounding the Mediterranean Sea. The prophecy was uttered when Daniel was captive in the court of Babylon, in the 6th century B.C. Its truth has been demonstrated in history from that day to the present time. | BBC News is editorially independent. Its appearance on this site should not be taken as an endorsement.
