Very interesting. I agree and disagree.

The Catholic church is not a Hegemon. It does not have true empire power and control.
The same for Britian. Influence is NOT empire. Influence does not make a Hegemon.
The British would have a lost a war with Ukraine in weeks.
Their military equipment is old, they cant recruit. Britain is week. Banks dont change that.

Italy and Great Britian are tiny nymph flies in comparison to both Russia and China
industrial output and military power

The American empire is declining and desperate. One reason why Biden terrorized Germany's pipeline/energy supply
so as to prompt German industry to relocate to Murica. The West's industry is unable to compete with Russia in
weapons or ammo output. Not sure they control the world as so many countries are fleeing to BRICS.

It seems the most apt condition of the world is as a NEW MULTI-POLAR WORLD.

BUT....your post is quite thought provoking.

It's not about winning wars. I don't think that they even care who wins any war or who could win a war against any country. Regardless of who wins, it's the ones who establish and enforce the rules that are in power. As an analogy, when two boxers go at it, there is usually a winner. Be it by tko or ko. However, the winner doesn't make the rules of boxing. He just abides by it. Same with this. If Russia wins. Ok, good for them. But they don't rule over the corporations that fund and rule the world. Russia still abides by them. OPEC being an example.
