The king of the south will prepare himself for the war with an exceedingly large and mighty army.—Dan. 11:25.

 

By 1870, Britain had become the largest empire on earth, and it had the most powerful military force. That empire was pictured as a small horn that vanquished three other horns—France, Spain, and the Netherlands. (Dan. 7:7, 8) And it filled the role of the king of the south well into World War I. During this same time, the United States of America had become the dominant economic power and was forming a close partnership with Britain. During World War I, the United States and Britain were welded into a powerful military alliance. At that time, Britain and its former colony became the Anglo-American World Power. As Daniel foretold, this king had amassed “an exceedingly large and mighty army.” Throughout the last days, the Anglo-American alliance has been the king of the south. w20.05 4 ¶7-8

"Welded"  is the perfect adjective.   Although there are other English speaking nations , there is no alliance that compares to USA / UK.
