Seldon Plan

A Seldon Plan is a strategic, long-term forecast used in the "Foundation" series by Isaac Asimov, where a mathematician named Hari Seldon predicts the future of a vast empire. Essentially, it’s a detailed plan based on mathematical models to guide societal and political changes, aiming to shorten a period of chaos after the empire's collapse. Think of it as a carefully designed blueprint to ensure a smooth transition and stability for civilization over centuries, by anticipating challenges and guiding action accordingly.
