You are partially correct, only partially because we in the united states of america, are far more demonic than you can possibly imagine. The truth is far more complicated than most can see, but we have always been demonic, but in the beginning there were genuine Christians here as well, who were merely the wheat growing amongst the tares. And while that is true of today as well, we now consist of much less wheat than ever, with a lot more fake Christians, hiding just how much more that we are mainly only tares today, with very little wheat at all.
Daniel 7:12 talks about the rest of the beasts ( the first three, ) and how their dominion was taken away, but they were given an extension of life was granted to them for a time and a season, usually translated similarly to the NASB, etc.., as something like "for an appointed period of time." But in Revelation 13:2 the beast that is coming out of the sea, hs it's body parts description being given as consisting of the first three beasts from Dan 7:3-6, but in the exact reverse order of said beasts from Dan 7: [ compare the beasts and their descriptions in Dan 7:3-6 with Rev 13:2 ] - And while in the Hebrew Dan 7:12 only says they will be given an extension of life for a time and a season, because the body parts of the beast in Rev 13:2 consist of the body parts of the 1st three easts in Dan 7: but in reverse order, apparently, even though not explicitly stated, when their appointed time and season was up, those three beasts appeared again on earth, in Type, to show us the world's transition to the eventual beast that arose from the sea in Rev 13: ?
The 1st beast, the Lion with the wings of an eagle, and it's wings were plucked from it, and it was lifted up from the ground, and made to stand on two feet like a man, and a human mind was given to it, - It was the American Revolution and the founding of the USA ( The Eagle, ) from Great Britain ( The Lion. ) And apparently as well when these three beasts showed up again, they also showed up, at least in Type, with the four horsemen of Rwv as well. And the 1st, the White horse, again was the founding of the USA, who went out conquering, and to conquer, but without any war / war details given? It apparently conquered with the mind of man given to it from it's Dan 7:4 description?
It conquered thru the Great Harlot being rebranded as Lady Liberty, and secular humanist Peace, with Liberty behind it all of course. Liberty as a celestial Lady and guide for reason and peace, always consumed the American Psyche. Liberty was always depicted and drawn on top of legal documents in the USA, from stock certificate headers, to anywhere else you could think of. And our coinage was always Greco-Roman Pagan, with Lady Liberty always found front and center within our coinage. And with our National Bank Note system artwork, Liberty and other pagan thought could always be found. But then when POTUS Woodrow Wilson brought us into the Federal Reserve system instead, with it's Federal Reserve currency, soon after eventually our $1 Dollar bill was transformed into Liberty's NWO great pyramid of one world unity, topped with the all seeing eye for God, in their pagan interpretation of what God was to them - rather than in truth.
The 2nd beast of Dan 7:12 to return was a little bit more complicated. Dan 7: had 4 beasts, and Dan 8: had 2 beasts. The 2 beasts of Dan 8: paralleled ( were the same, ) as the middle 2 beasts of Dan 7: - And so the 2nd and 3rd beast of Dan 7:, again as per their return in Dan 7:12, ( and the 2 beasts of Dan 8: ) - were A) WW I and WW II, and B ) the four representative powers of the Allies, who disintegrated into the power of their 4 heads after WW II, and the cold war. Dan 8: starts with it's beast being the Ram with two horns, and the latter horn being greater, as WW I and WW II in order. But as the 2nd beast in Dan 7:5 the bear with 3 ribs in it's mouth which was told to arise and devour much flesh, was the 3rd Reich specifically, and parallel to the 1st beast of Dan 8: being the Ram with 2 horns, being WW I leading to WW II as the greater specific fulfillment.
And the He-Goat, or male Goat, the 2nd beast in Dan 8: coming from across the sea from the west, to defeat the 1st beast . ram with 2 horns, was the Allies once the USA joined them and entered the war. And after the war ended and peace between the allies was over ( the beginning of the cold war, ) the allies were symbolically split into four heads, ( Alexander the Great all over again, or the 3rd beast from Dan 7:6, ) paralleled to the 2nd beast in Dan 8:
And as soon as WW II ended, and the Cold War began ( Alexander's power divided between his four top generals, ) Germany was divided, as Berlin was specifically dived into 4 as well, to be split, and each quarter specifically ruled by the USA, Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union, ) we can clearly see all the fulfilment of the return of the beasts from Dan 7:12, and their gradual forging of the beast from the sea in Rev 13:
This is all my own interpretation. However how Demonic the USA has become, and thus has been abandoned by God, comes from this sermon by Pastor John Macarthur :
