I have predicted this would happen since the prophecy is directed to only three of them. The little nation called early 1990s! Assur was the father of Assyria, which is the ancient name of Germany. (We prove the identity of these nations in our booklets God inspired these names to be The King of the South and Germany and the Holy Roman Empire.)
