Hallå, lit

I'm looking for a word, can you help?

I'm trying to write something along the lines of:
The Haldane Mission resulted in France & Russia making Britain commit to it's role as Naval hegemon in the North Sea.

Is there a word to better describe France and Russia's actions unto Britain?

It's not quite being 'placed' as " "

It is more of a confirmation of the position; as if Britain previously fulfilled this role in an unofficial capacity but it was now recognised as a necessary role.

Would 'consigned' fit in the context?

I'm beginning to fear /lit/ isn't as helpful as I was hoping it would be.

its not it's, naval isn't capitalized, never use ampersands when writing formally

what's wrong with "confirming Britain as the naval hegemon of the North Sea"

Thank you x

I won't use ampersands in the final piece.
I mess up my 'it's' and 'its' quite frequently unfortunately. English isn't my first language and I'm still at a stage where my tutor needs to highlight most of my errors.
Not sure what I was thinking with 'Naval' there though, with nothing else to blame, I will attribute that to the late hour.
