This probably alludes to a ten-nation
confederation (as in the toes of the Daniel 2:24-45 image), but

“They are ten kingdoms which shall arise out of
the fourth great kingdom there: ten European powers, which in the last time, in
concert with and subjugation to the antichristian power, shall make war against
Christ. In the precise number and form here indicated, they have not yet arisen
. . . What changes in Europe may bring them into the required tale and form, it
is not for us to say.” (Alford, 1866)
