OK, here we go on #Trump, #empire, whether this is America's Roman moment, and so on. This is a very good article. But what's missing from its assessment of the world as being 3 empires (Europe, US, and China), is the third empire isn't Europe. /1 Europe and USA belong to the same empire. The third empire is Russia.
The three spheres of military/economic influence are China, Russia, and the West ie Europe, the USA, other N. American nations, and our protectorates/allies in Pacific/East Asia like Australia, Philippines /2
