            Nahhhhh, Napoleon's institutions that he set up left a lasting impact on the continent. The legal and political systems that he set up lasted much longer than the empire and the man himself. Is it Sweden that still has their Bonapartist monarch? And all the nationalism that came out of the 19th century can be pretty directly traced to Napoleon, his soldiers and their approach to empire building.
            How about the official end of the HRE? That's a pretty classic move, the sale of Louisiana? I don't know there are a lot of examples.

            I agree with Zhou. If you had asked an educated Roman in 110 AD who the most influential person of the previous century was, he would never in a million years have guessed that it was some uppity rabbi in Jerusalem who caused a stir for a few months and then got crucified.

            Actual Hitlerists would be clandestine. Since anything connected with Hitler has been so demonized, no one would ever admit to it. But if you laid out the principles of National Socialism as defined by Hitler but omitted his name and the term "Nazi", you'd probably find quite a few people who would agree with almost all of it.

            And as far as Hitler’s principles I’m not sure you would be able to define them since so often they were subjective.

            The 'era' of the British in the sense that they would no longer effectively project strength onto another major powere would be between WWII and losing India. Asian colonial belongings were going to end up in American hands anway due to their geopolitical value.

            Everyone was scared shitless of the commies in the late 50s-60s so I call that their 'era' plus the early success with the space race.

It has since been criticized for advocating an aggressive new policy including the removal of Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq and the containment of Syria by engaging in proxy warfare and highlighting its possession of "weapons of mass destruction".
