Mahan's theory of sea power made the world aware of the importance of good sea power. Sea power remains important today because the great fault lines in global politics always end up with the distinct nature of land and sea states. The contemporary tensions between "the West" and its adversaries reflect the deep cultural differences between a continental system characterized by authoritarian rule, ideological conformity, command economies, closed borders, and deep-seated anxieties dating back to ancient philosophers about the sea as a vehicle for destabilizing ideas, and the legacy of sea-power states characterized by inclusive politics, open and outward-looking societies, the rule of law, individual freedoms, and economic opportunity.

In ancient times, humans had a history of economic exchanges through maritime trade, including maritime trade activities and commercial networks in the Red Sea, Indian Ocean and other regions. In modern times, the struggle for maritime power is the theme of modern war doctrine, because the ocean area is very large, and strong national power is needed to dominate the sea area. Among them, the United States became the world's largest maritime hegemon in the early 20th century and used naval power to protect its interests and expand its territory. This book deeply explores the relationship between the ocean and human civilization, economy, politics and other aspects, and has high reference value and historical significance.
