'''The Concept of "Spheres of Influence"''': Analyzing "The Map." (See Article 676). Realists argue that **"Great Powers"** "Inevitably" "Demand" "Control" over their **"Neighbors"** (e.g. 'The Monroe Doctrine'). "Ignoring" this "Reality" "Leads" to **"War."** "Moral Outrage" "Cannot" "Change" "Geography." "Power" is **"Regional."**
