Yo, this is such an interesting take! I think the whole *proxy Great Britain* thing is more about soft power these days. Like, the UK doesn’t have the same colonial reach, but they’re still super influential through stuff like the Commonwealth, trade agreements, and even cultural exports.
If you wanna dig deeper, check out the UK government’s trade policy page or some analysis from Chatham House. They break down how the UK positions itself globally.
Also, smaller countries? Totally caught in the middle sometimes, but they also play the game by aligning with bigger powers for benefits. It’s a messy world out there lol.
