I doubt that most of them who might be influenced by your concerns would even know what 'hegemony' was. I don't think this is going to run unless you express yourself in terms that more people will understand.
'Dominance' would be better understood, particularly if accompanied by stark examples of this.
However, I think most people are aware that Germany has the biggest economy in the EU, so the fact that they dominate should not really come as a great surprise to most.

Exactly. It almost seems like a fear of success, which seems to be a particularly English failing.
