I don't have much to add what hasn't been said already, but god I love a good epilogue. I was a bit scared that they'd just cut to black after Mikasa walks off with Erens head but they gave us propper few-months-later, few-decades-later and even a rare and elusive in-the-distant-future epilogue.
I'm gonna be honest, I didn't really get why Eren did the Rumbling. He knew that ultimately he'd fail and conflict would come back to Paradise. Did he do it to make himself a sort of evil martyr or did he even have a choice?
Also, is Historia not the queen of Paradise anymore? Her home didn't look very Queen like and I don't think she was ok with that fascist movement happening there.
Also, what was up with the people at that fascist parade, why did they look like grown up Gabi and Falco and their (dead) friends? Is this just my face blindness?
Pure speculation but I heard a rather relevant quote recently that went something like
"The reason the Palestine conflict is so difficult to resolve is because of the power imbalance. One side holds all the power and is therefore unwilling to do any concessions"
By leveling the world's and Paradise Islands population to equal numbers this power balance would be restored and thus both parties would now be open to peace talks
