Haushofer's pan-regions divided the world under three supreme leading states in economy, politics and culture. Those three states incorporated the USA who controlled North America and much of South America, Germany who controlled Europe, much of Africa and western Asia and Japan who controlled focal, eastern, and the islands of southern Asia. These leading states could anticipate that their locales should create financial and political alliance with their driving state as well as respect international sanctions and major social assignments.
