Apocalypticism is the religious belief that the end of the world is imminent, even within one's own lifetime.[4] This belief is usually accompanied by the idea that civilization will soon come to a tumultuous end due to some sort of catastrophic global event.[10]

Apocalypticism is one aspect of eschatology in certain religions,[12] the part of theology concerned with the final events of human history,[13] or the ultimate destiny of humanity (societal collapse, human extinction, and so on).[15]
