An empire does not emerge willy nilly. It is very consciously knitted together by a set of attitudes that give its members a common purpose: "Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the waves!"
"The sun never sets on the British Empire", "Long live the Fatherland", "Long live the Motherland", etc.
At the apex of these organizations are megalomaniacs that happily sacrifice their subjects for power and glory.
Their main skill lies in their ability to manipulate the minds of these same subjects, to foster hatred and contempt for those outside their circle of influence.
In order to cement their power over populations, very young 'suitable' people are recruited into the brainwashing apparatus and are groomed for positions of power later on.
So, conflicts between empires are inevitable as tensions build up and contests of territory come to a head.
That's where we are now in Ukraine and nobody should fool themselves into believing that this conflict will be over anytime soon.
