The average age may be 200 years, but several civilizations have lasted 1000-1500 years while others only last 10-50 years, so taking an average to make the point is misleading.

and it's not just democracies that fall apart, empires, monarchies, communism, oligarchies, etc. they all do.

Everything is temporary in nature, nothing lasts forever
