Okay but the world can have more than one empire at a time? This seems like a non sequitur.
Then why isn't he period before the fall of the USSR being counted as American Empire?
Because it was just a few decades between the end of WW2 and the fall of the USSR
Okay, and I understand your broader point, but do you see why that's a non sequitur?
