I have no clue what will happens and how the world will turn.What happened after the last oil shock was literally the start of de-industrialization and debt accumulation that led us to the current state.
When was the last time a western empire came back? Most likely outcome of collapse of USD based financial system is permanent exit of US from relevancy. Ironically you're demonstrating exactly why that is: nations are made up of individuals, wealth of nations isn't money, its the collective will and actions of those individuals, there is no nation without the individual.
Losing the USD means US also lose the ability to import any and all modern artifacts required to industrialize and the foreign talent with knowledge on how to do so. Left by itself with only oil, you need millions of individuals working collectively over generations to first educate the population so they know what to do, then another generation to actually do it, during the entire time you'll be poor and weak and requiring you to play nice with those who will stop you in revenge for what you did in the past.
The reason no western empire ever came back is because all western empires were built on conquest, and the nature of empires built on conquest is they do not know how to sacrifice and build.

Well, it it a big problem for the rest of the world.
The USA is a net oil exporter since 2022.
So, the shut down of the oil production in the gulf, and say 200 USD per barrell benefit the USA , and has only positive effect.
It is devastating for the rest of the world, and for the international money class.
