America Empire will be destroy from within than outside.
These empire were not destroyed from outside but within because of massive military budget to keep up it forces and neglecting the basic at home.
Sending massive forces oversea is very expensive
Roman Empire
Russia Empire
British Empire
Greek Empire
German-Hungry Empire
Mongol empire

That’s crap! All English speaking countries outside of the UK were all influenced by the British not America. Even American forefathers were British, so English is spread across the world by the British slave trade.

Yes American culture spread across the globe, but not English. Maybe the food, hip hop music, movie etc

And no, for the next few 100 years, America will continue to rule. China is warming up to take over but I don’t see China lasting in that regard.

Roman was not attacked from outside but within
If only you read about Rome empire
The British empire ruled the sea and land for almost 1K before WW2
Most empire get destroyed after a very big war

WW3 or something will happen that will make USA fall.
Too much budget on military always collapses the empire.

God1000:
Despite recently closing hundreds of bases in Iraq and Afghanistan, the United States still maintains nearly 800 military bases in more than 70 countries and territories abroad with a staggering military budget of $753.5 billion.

The United States spends more on national defense than China, India, Russia, United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, Germany, France, Japan, South Korea, Italy, and Australia combined

So much of America's power comes from its size: it is one the largest countries on Earth by population and area, and is rich in natural resources and human capital. It is also in many ways an island nation; because it faces no major threats on its borders apart from migrants from central American countries.

The US cultural influence extends across the world, for example over two billion people speak some English in the world today with the majority speaking an Americanised version of the language. US TV programmes, films, video games and music have a large domestic market of more than 300 million customers, in addition to their influence on the rest of the world. The USA also has a social and cultural impact on immediate neighbours such as Mexico and Canada and on North/Central America as a whole.
It is the world's foremost economic, political and military power, it has the third largest population in the world (325) million people.
America remains the last western stronghold/empire.

Since the end of second world war in 1945 and the fall of Soviet Union in 1991, no nation on earth is as powerful as America. Though China is growing rapidly in both economic and military aspect, but can China truly dethrone America in the nearest future?


.
NO!
There can never be any sole super power like US again. World powers would be balanced among major players and may unite against certain world issue such as religion

Anglo-america power survived 2 world wars. British empire was larger than Roman empire though later last longer.
Cold War destroyed Soviet Union. US would still get at China economically. How does know how.

No country can have America's influence in the foreseeable future.
If America falls today, none can replace it. What we will have is a series
of regional powers struggling for control.

America's power lies in money and not its military which is incapable of fighting
well organised and determined enemies.
I agree with you on this.

Empire is when a country ruled over many lands imposing her own law.
NAZI German is an empire even if they ruled for few years.

Which country did America have base before WW2? Or have any influence?

British ruled over the sea till NAZI raised to power.
The USA only get powered after the dissolution of ISSR

We shall see!

American forefather learnt from mistake of past empires when building their country. The idea of breaking from within doesn’t hold shi.t for me … only way American influence will be weakened is only by economy. Americas foundation is STRONG! The structure is SOLID! Patriotism is STRONG! Forget about the democrats and republicans shi.t, they are all working towards the great American empire.
Re: Will There Ever Be Another Powerful Country Like America On Earth? by seunny4lif(m): 7:40pm On Nov 23, 2021
So, is the Roman Empire and British Empire
Those that were alive then when those empire were ruling believed no one can stop them
British and Roman Empires were more stronger than the USA
