The Empire That Forgot it Was An Empire - #2222

The Empire That Forgot It Was an Empire draws a stark parallel to Rome—an empire that refused to acknowledge its own nature and crumbled as a result. America, too, grew from a republic into a global power, shaping trade, war, and culture while denying its imperial role. Now, like Rome, it weakens—distracted by internal strife, outsourcing its strength, and allowing rivals to rise. History warns that empires don’t fall from conquest, but from losing belief in themselves. Will America learn before it’s too late?
