Hi, please help me.

"To power and global reach can therefore be added another imperial characteristic: an actual desire to sally forth and act."

I'm not sure what the subject is in this sentence.

I guess "global reach" is the subject and that "and" is used instead of a comma.

No, the subject is 'characteristic'. The sentence can be rearranged this way:

Another imperial characteristic can therefore be added to power and global reach: an actual desire to sally forth and act."
