The world can move on without the United States.
100 years ago, the British Empire dominated global commerce, commanding more than 20% of the worldโs wealth. Many believed its sun would never set.
200 years ago, France bestrode Europeโs stage, its armies feared, its culture envied. Napoleon declared himself immortal.
400 years ago, the Spanish crown reigned from Manila to Mexico, its treasure fleets groaning with silver and silk. The kings thought their glory would last eternal.
Each empire proclaimed itself indispensable. Each was ultimately eclipsed.
Power wanes, influence migrates, and legitimacy dies the moment itโs assumed rather than earned. Should America forfeit the worldโs respect, it will discover what every fallen empire learned too late:
The world moves on. Always.
