It sounds like an excessive one to me and I'm a Brit. Can't see the empire lasting until ~2000 in any large extend without massive and probably catastrophic changes to the world, probably for the worse. You would really have to freeze European culture into something pre-enlightenment values to prevent those ideas not only influencing Europe and then spreading to the colonies. Which of course means a much less developed world.
Nah, that's just The End of History thesis by Fukuyama, which even he has rejected nowadays.
