<Isn't it natural for the biggest and strongest economical-intellectual system to impose it's method and choices on his planet ?>

Yes indeed and that's the history of biology here on earth. I am currently imposing my method and choices on my planet. So far, so good. But it's a slow process. I'm running out of time. Rome wasn't built in a day.

My hirelings are dithering around too much, making mistakes, wasting time and money. Still, we work with what we have available.

PS: Hitler and co and Japan's Greater Co-Prosperity Sphere and Saddam's plans and Pol Pot's and Mao's were, unfortunately, strong on the "biggest and strongest" but weak on the intellectual and ethical. They were klutzy replays of chimpanzee power plays for simplistic dominance, rather than the totally different democratic human egalitarianism and universality concepts driving the world of freedom and voluntary interaction. No wonder they lost! Good riddance. Not many people want to have big apes running the show. bushorchimp.com
