Should a Superpower Establish Spheres of Influence?

Answers

Answered by Ms. Sue
A superpower can't help but establish spheres of influence; that's implied in the name "superpower."

What do you think?

The word "should" indicates that you need to make a decision in your own mind and write about it.

having a sphere of influence helps out the smaller nations and creates a balance of power because the smaller nation with a sphere of influence have enemies that will find there own superpower...right?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes. That's a good answer. Small nations hope that others, including the superpower, help protect them from enemies.
