It's about Great Britain. The triumphant island who plundered the rest of the world ("steal what she never could own"), now an "American satellite" slowly being culturally eroded by the US ("whipped by the winds of the West"), still standing despite it all. Note also the nautical metaphors for a nation strongly associated with seafaring.

I've been listening to this song for decades, but now every time I listen to it I think of "Ole's at the wheel" fml

stars out a bit like a mellow version of the BoDeans Closer to free, but is quite a different song. this one flows so well and is pretty darn good.
