The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In Ancient Greece, hegemony denotes the politico-military dominance of the hegemon city-state over other city-states.
- In the 19th century, hegemony denoted the "social or cultural predominance or ascendancy, predominance by one group within a society or milieu" and "a group or regime which exerts undue influence within a society." In international relations theories, hegemony is distinguished from empire as ruling only external but not internal affairs of other states.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Hegemony article was read about 310,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 79 and blocks with 87: each hit it takes is cut by 35 %.
