i never wanted to say it was
but the us is still a country where the powers keep each other in check at least mostly as far as i'm aware
Right before the 2nd Iraq war, Iraq switched from the Dollar to the Euro.
Right before the Libyan "revolution", Libya switched to gold backed money.
The US isn't a power that keeps countries in check, it's an oligarchy that forces everyone to abide by their economic strategy or they get overthrown. If everyone in the world uses their currency, they will have an economic stranglehold against every single country, and can decide if millions live or die.
