imperial power will always do what it does. Doesn't matter who wields it. Ghangis Khan. Islam. Popr Innocent the 3rd(he was pretty bad lol). Stalin. George Bush. Sinwar. Netanyahu. XiJinping when he FINALLY decides its time to use the ginormous military/navy hes built up as his population gets larger. Ottomon Empire. Vietnam. Stalin was particularly evil. William the conquerer. Prince kind Edward the 1st (slaughtered 300 jews in the 1200's for a laugh). King Henry the 8th. Bill Gates, Elon Musk. Jeff Bezos. When people get a certain amount of RESOURCES to fight...they generally....use them to FIGHT the world or conquer. Thats just what happens. Mugabe in Zimbabwe was also a piece of sht.
