It's not as overt as it used to be - and I don't think it's a singular empire anymore either - but there are still Powers That Be everywhere, vying for control and influence across multiple dimensions - military supremacy, economy, information, etc.

But that's been going on since at least ancient Egypt so we might as well say the Egyptian Empire never ended if that's your standard.

I think Philip K. Dick would have been quite OK with the suggestion that the Empire which never ended was also the Egyptian one.

Well technically not the Egyptians, but they were a huge part of it in their culture. All one needs to do is look into Mystery Babylon and the Illumined ones. Very deep rabbit hole and is very interesting to learn about.
