This paper discusses the world political situation after the Cold War, as it has become obvious that we live in a world where there is a single superior world power. The United States has an overwhelmingly superior position in the world both militarily and economically, its dominant position is concretely present everywhere on the globe, and the language spoken in the U.S.A. has become the lingua franca of the world. Historically, whenever there has been a sovereign power monopoly, the sovereign power has taken advantage of the situation. This is exactly what we have witnessed in U.S. foreign policy
