Extracted from Wikipedia --
Hegemony ( , UK also , US also ) is the political, economic, and military predominance of one state over other states, either regional or global.
In Ancient Greece (ca. 8th BC – AD 6th c.), hegemony denotes the politico-military dominance of the hegemon city-state over other city-states. In the 19th century, hegemony denoted the "social or cultural predominance or ascendancy; predominance by one group within a society or milieu" and "a group or regime which exerts undue influence within a society".
In international relations theories, hegemony is distinguished from empire as ruling only external but not internal affairs of other states.
