A New Order Of (or For) the Ages


Explanation:
"New World Order" triggers a great deal of anxiety to conspiracy theorists, and should be avoided when translating this. Franklin Roosevelt referred to it as "A new order of the ages" in his Armistice Day (now Veteran's Day) address before the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in 1940. The link below is a good lead-off.
