| Abstract | ||
| The regional strategic balance of power is a key concept in understanding the nature of international relations and regional conflicts. This balance is represented in the situation in which states or regional powers seek to achieve stability through a proportional distribution of power, which prevents any party from achieving absolute hegemony that may threaten security and stability, and although the concept originated in the traditional European context, it has evolved to include broader dimensions within the international and regional system, taking into account the cultural and political specificities of each region. The dynamics of the balance of power are influenced by a number of fundamental factors, including economic, military, political, and ideological. Intangible factors, such as geographical location, technological capabilities and natural materials, also play an essential role in shaping this balance. This phenomenon is all the more complex when considering the regional environment, which is in constant change as a result of the interference of international and regional interests. In addition to this introduction, the structure of this research was divided into two sections. The first section dealt with the concept of regional balance and its characteristics, while the second section dealt with the factors affecting the state of regional balance, and a conclusion in which the most important conclusions and proposals that were reached were included. | ||
