An empire on the verge of collapse, named after a main-sequence star. When a main-sequence star has burned through its hydrogen, it switches to helium and bloats into a red giant, though it's essentially being hollowed out inside. Eventually, because it has lost the mass that could sustain its volume, it collapses. If it was an average-sized star, into a white dwarf, or a black hole if above average.
Its sapped of all its strength but its military, and now its burning that. Like a red giant, its imperial swelling is a sign of decay, not health. And its unsustainable. Collapse is inevitable. Possibly, given its size, into a black hole, which will suck the whole world in after it.

Do you think America is a main-sequence empire that has reached the red giant stage, having burned through its resources, its economic and fiscal vitality, its moral capital?

Invented by Ariel Helwani. A phrase used to denote a fight on an MMA fight card that garners much attention from the MMA fan base. A fight that fans are looking forward to watching just as much, if not more, than the card’s actual main event.
Ariel Helwani: The fight that fans are looking forward to most is Todd Duffee vs Gian Villante, it is without a doubt the people’s main event. Okay guys I’ll see you next week, same time, same place, till then I say, “Peace, I’m outta here!”
