"Empires don't fail, they transform: The Roman empire became a church. The British empire became a bank. The American empire became the internet (or a data-center)". - Samim
While itt's fashionable these days to proclaim "US has more data centers than the rest of the world combined…" that statistic is wildly misleading. We’ve been in a post-national era for a while — where ownership, infrastructure, and control are opaque, distributed, and largely offshore. “US” is just a convenient fiction.
