It seems to me that it would need to be a bigger issue before that would happen, however, since Jehovah puts in in their hearts, any event could precede or trigger it.  

 

A bigger issue than oil prices collapsing the world economy?

Would there even need to be an event? Does Jehovah need to wait on an event before putting his one thought into their hearts?

Exactly. I meant to include that in my comment 😁

I think its interesting that the League of Nations was established after WW1. The United Nations was established after WW2. It seems that the world leaders are more reactive than proactive, so we could assume that the nations would give their power and authority to the UN after a major world event. However, Jehovah starts his Day and it may come completely unexpected. His Day may not come before or after a major world event and may not be triggered by any economic or religious instability. It happens when Jehovah purposes it to happen.

This is rational.  WE KNOW  that it's Jehovah.  But THEY DON'T KNOW.  Consequently, for all the nations to make this unprecedented decision, there must be a reason in their minds.  It must seem to them that it's their only option.  But WHY?  Why would it be their only option?  We don't know why, but that will be Jehovah's way of getting them to do it.

It will be their decision (free will exercised) , but they will see no other choice.

 

At least that's what I think  .    .
