What Happens When the World Has No Superpower?

In 1956, Britain and France were winning in Egypt. Then America made one phone call — and they withdrew. Not because they lost the war. Because they couldn't afford to keep fighting it. That moment revealed something most people never think about: there's a hidden architecture holding the world together. Open oceans. A reserve currency. A lender of last resort. And for the past 80 years, one country has been paying for all of it. But what happens if that country stops? This video explores the theory of hegemonic stability — why global order doesn't happen naturally, what it actually costs to maintain it, and what history tells us about the last time no one was in charge.
