In a world that appears to be coming apart at the seams, what measures can we take as individuals to ensure our family's welfare in the event our leaders and governmental bodies cannot cope with future disasters and catastrophes? What if we are forced into a civil war of unprecedented proportions? Experts say that as of 2015 we are headed toward a financial disaster that will change our world in ways we cannot imagine. People across the world have sensed a pending doom and feel they're powerless over the powers that be and are taking a stand. Survivalism is a modern movement of individuals and groups who are actively preparing for a possible life changing future event as well as disruptions in the social order on an international scale. From emergency medical and self-defense training to storing resources and building structures to achieve self-sufficiency and ultimately live a more full and fulfilling life. People across the globe are awakening to a new age of independence. Learn about these communities and what you can do to prepare for your own journey towards self-actualization. "Extinction is the rule. Survival is the exception." - Carl Sagan. "Survival can be summed up in three words - never give up. That's the heart of it really. Just keep trying." - Bear Grylls. "The weak die out and the strong will survive, and will live on forever." - Anne Frank
