Explanation

Calling the Hemisphere “the master of its own house” conveys that it intends to control its own affairs rather than be directed by outside powers. The phrase also presents the Hemisphere as acting together, so “dominance and unity” best describes the feeling. It signals resolve, not hostility or vulnerability.
