supremacy

dominance / sovereignty / superiority / hegemony
Noun

This term conveys an absolute and often uncontested level of power or authority. It suggests a hierarchy where one entity sits at the very top, leaving no room for equals. While it can describe a positive achievement in skill or technology, it frequently carries a political or military connotation of dominance and control over others. As an uncountable noun, it refers to a state of being rather than a discrete object. It does not have a plural form in standard usage and is typically used with adjectives like absolute, naval, or technical to specify the domain of dominance.
