Hegemony
I had read this word numerous times, but had never delved deeply into its exact meaning. I had assumed that it meant some kind of dominance over a region, so I was generally right. Power and control over a nation or group of people. For example, the Latino cultural hegemony over South America? It does have a connotation of a forced dominance. Interestingly the letter [g] can be pronounced as either a [g] or as a [j]. The video explains all these nuances in detail.
Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
