- Passport Micro-dotsPassport Micro-dots was the belief that the new standardized passport booklets of the 1920s contained hidden marks, invisible writing, or microscopic codes that silently informed foreign governments whether a traveler was politically dangerous, undesirable, or under surveillance. The phrase “micro-dots” is somewhat retrospective, since later twentieth-century spy microdot techniques were more technically developed than the hidden-mark rumors attached to early passports. But the theory itself fit the 1920s moment: new passport regimes, photographs, booklets, watermarks, seals, and international standardization all made travel documents seem more intrusive and more legible to hidden authority. Under the strongest version, the passport was not just an identity paper but a portable reputation file encoded beyond the traveler’s sight.
- The "League of Nations" Super-StateThis theory claimed that the League of Nations was not merely an international body created after World War I, but the beginning of a prophetic super-state that would dissolve national sovereignty and fulfill the “Beast” imagery of biblical apocalyptic literature. It emerged especially among premillennial and prophetic interpreters who read international political union as a sign of end-times government. In this framework, the League was treated not as diplomacy but as the first visible form of world rule.
