    They would if they could. Brittany did during the age of sail, Spain before that. China would love to become the only global super power.

    I think the world would be worse off with Russia or China as the only super powers, as they have even worse democracy than the US, so their governments will can be further out of line with the people.

    And multiple super powers isn't very good either, last time during the cold war it caused tones of loss of life from proxi wars. And direct war would be even worse.

          The United States, from its very inception has been and is an expansionist, imperialist project. From its inception the tools it uses to gain and maintain dominance over the rest of the world include genocide, slavery, mass murder campaigns, invasion, bombing, covert support for military coup and dictatorship, brutal suppression of all opposition to capitalism and the U.S. led global capitalist order. It has more of its own people locked up in cages than any other country in the world, both as a percentage and in total numbers. It spends more on military and policing than any other country. Simply put, no country is more brutal or heinous in its authoritarian ways than the United States of America.
