American imperialism. Our bases in Germany and Japan for no justifiable reason. Our invasion of Iraq. Our presence in South America and far more places than we have any right to be in.

We're basically the new British Empire. The Thin Red Line. An empire that is based on a million bases in far flung parts of the world that are territorially weak but strategically important.
