Abstract
The fall of the Communist quarters in 1991opened the door for a unipolar world led by the United States as the sole global dominant power. This new role made of the US a distinctive country compared to the rest of the other world countries in terms of global politics. The present paper attemptes to study the major historical rationales and policies which contributed to the emergence of the U.S as a dominating superpower. Meanwhile, it aims to shed light on the different aspects of U.S hegemony overseas including military, political, economic and even cultural dimensions. In doing so, a descriptive analytical method has been adopted in order to trace the different historical events that contributed to building what is called today the US hyperpower. This will be backed by statistics, maps and diagrams in order to demonstrate the US hegemonic nature with proven evidence. The findings show that America is actually in a quest to maintain its position as superpower and “world leader” underpinned by its historical and ideological legacies that helped to shape the American domination over the international order and its institutions.
