Exactly, and this didn't last for 14 years, but nearly the entire 20th century, and is succeeded by other AES countries like the PRC.
Not at all, plus they are succeeded, like I said, by other AES states like the PRC.
The PRC is Socialist, and is continuing the application of Marxism-Leninism as they overtake everyone else. As for the Soviet Union, it lasted long enough to prove Socialism works, ans managed to assist with national liberation movements worldwide.
In a way, yes, the US Empire is the current world hegemon, but it really succeeds the UK. Either way, the length of a system doesn't determine its effectiveness, moreover the PRC is showing no signs of collapse.
