To be fair, a multi-polar world with the level of technology that we have today is unprecedented. I don't think nations would resort to fighting in the past. It would be more similar to the cold war. Tensions, posturing in hot zones, and occasional proxy wars.

Its not like US hegemony has brought about peace. In fact, the US has intentionally provoked wars in nations that needed a regime change. Iraq War brought ISIS. ISIS brought terrorist attacks to EU and US.

Political instability in Africa has caused genocides. Often with a connection to US decisions. South American regime change doesn't happen as often as it did in 70s to 90s, but that was the source of a lot pain for people.
