The World Without US (2008)

In the gripping documentary "The World Without US," filmmakers Mitch Anderson and Jason J. Tomaric embark on a compelling inquiry into the far-reaching implications of US military involvement across the globe. The United States, once an isolationist nation in the aftermath of World War One, now boasts military bases in over ninety countries, casting an unrivaled shadow of power. However, beneath the might and grandeur, the US faces its own internal challenges - a dwindling population and receding economic power in an increasingly globalized world. This raises a critical, thought-provoking question: What would ensue if the United States retreated from the international arena, reverting to a "normal nation," a republic rather than an empire? To unearth an answer to this intriguing query, Anderson and Tomaric set out on an extensive investigative journey spanning four continents and twenty-one countries. Their relentless pursuit paints a vivid portrait of how US foreign policy shapes the lives of millions worldwide. "The World Without US" is a profound exploration of the complex fabric of international relations, probing into the potential aftermath should the US cease to be a global superpower. This film is an earnest endeavor to understand the omnipresent yet often unseen influence of the United States on the global stage, offering a riveting perspective on a world that could exist under drastically different circumstances.
