> Pax Americana must be acknowledged and I shudder at the thought of it shattering.
Shudder away! We've already had both Carney and the finance minister of Singapore essentially declare Pax Americana to have ended. Everybody else is just being polite.
[EDIT: prime minister of Singapore, not finance minister]
The prime minister of Singapore said something similar. It’s worth a watch, he is very well-spoken.

My mistake, I thought it was their finance minister.
Until nukes are going off, Pax Americana stands strong.
That's just deterrence. Pax America (used to) mean something much more than that.
When the US stops being the main topic on the internet then you'll know it's over. As it stands everyone is still fully obsessed with America. Their cultural dominance is far from over.
