Unfortunately, it will always be a reaction, as opposed to taking initiative.
Yes, cycles can end, but on a larger scale you may see similarities which mean the cycle has not so much ended, as temporarily paused itself.
Controlling systems can sometimes endure, but if the people do not know what it is they want, then the system can easily fall victim to that. Indecisiveness can kill off a well-written system easily.
Regimes, like most governmental powers, rely primarily on the people. Whether it be by scare tactics, shock tactics, or any other form, it is imperitive they keep the masses content, because an angry mob will bring the downfall of even the most well-trained soldiers in the world, as the mob has an advantage the soldiers can never grasp.
They have something they believe in fervently, and that is what they fight for.

If I don't know what lies beyond
Desire is now the one in control
Am I strong enough to not ever know just what I'd find?
Should I press on?
