I was thinking of the lack of large-scale wars of territorial expansion in the post-Cold War era, relative to all other times in history. (The war in Ukraine is an alarming reversal of that trend.)
So first of all, most of eastern Europe was under Soviet control and only a cold war and the limits of communist empire building prevented it from being all of Europe.
Second, Ukraine is what happens when you don’t have enough guns to protect yourself or allies.
Once a party reaches a certain amount of AGI capability, all the world becomes underprotected.
Finally I see no evidence of any prevention of internal or secret bad acts.
Do you have an example?
