This work examines the geopolitical significance and the economic implications of oil as a vital resource influencing international relations, particularly in the context of post-World War I power dynamics. The narrative explores the competition for oil dominance among global powers, emphasizing the strategic importance of oil in maintaining empires and military strength. At the start of the book, the author highlights the essential role that oil has come to play in modern governance and military capability. Key figures from the United States, Britain, and France recognize the need for an assertive oil policy to secure control over global oil reserves. The opening chapters detail the historical context of oil discovery, its rapid consumption increases, and the fierce competition between powerful trusts like Standard Oil and Royal Dutch Shell. The book establishes the groundwork for understanding how these entities shaped international politics, particularly during periods of conflict and economic upheaval, framing oil as a resource that is not only economically vital but also a source of political power.
