Abstract
I consider the monopole condensate of five color QCD. The naive lowest energy state is unobtainable at one-loop for five or more colors due to simple geometric considerations. The consequent adjustment of the vacuum condensate generates a hierarchy of confinement scales in a natural Higgs-free manner. The accompanying symmetry hierarchy contains hints of standard model phenomenology.
