  • Pax Americana (Latin for “American peace”) describes the absence of world-scale war as the United States emerged as the major economic, military, and political power in the world following World War II (1939–1945). The term is a play on Pax Romana, or Roman peace, used to describe a period of relative peace in the Mediterranean area in the early years of the Common Era.
