The term Golden Age comes from Greek mythology and it refers to the initial stage of all the different human eras. In the Golden Age men lived in an ideal state, in an utopian dream, where humankind was pure and immortal. The Golden Age does not about war, work, the old age stage of life, nor sickness, and in this age, people died in a pacific dream. The main reason why there are no conflicts among men is because the land offers and produces goods in adequate quantities, in order to satisfy all men needs; men in the Golden Age lived a happy, easy life.
So, if there is no conflict between the humankind, if there is equality among men, prosperity and wealth for everyone in the same proportion, if there is no sickness, and if there is a cultural interaction between civilizations a Golden Age must rise. Humans will live a happy, calm life, without any worries; which will make perfect lives in an apparent perfect world. This is actually an utopic thought due to the fact that life is not perfect and that humans are confrontational, greedy and troubled.
