list the super power in your heart(FOR PEACE)

I really hope Turkey to take over Arabs again :lol:
 
All the super powers have one thing in common, they are good before they are not supoer power, once they build their capacity and become super power they start going after the weaker guys, it happend with all of them and it will happen with china as well(if china becomes superpowr).
 
China a superpower by 2030,India a superpower by 2040,Brazil a superpower by 2050.
US no longer a superpower by 2065.
 
Currently only the USA can be called a super-power (even though a declining one). The US still has many allies around the world that toe their line, be it in diplomacy, economic affairs or military actions. However, the G-20 nations collectively will share the power and influence, shaping the global economy and world affairs for the next few decades. My 2 cents.
 
I think the EU doesn't really have "superpower" intentions. At least not if we go by the classic definition which includes: 'the ability to project military power on a global scale'.

Globalization (aka 'Westernization', the spread of free markets, democracy and the rule of law) does not really require any active spreading from our side anyways, since these ideas are so powerful that they are spreading by themselves, slowly but surely (and have already to most of the world). So we don't have much to gain from military capabilities to project anywhere in the world.

As I pointed out in another thread the world is heading for a multi-polar system anyway in my opinion, with many great powers, not one or two superpowers.Read More

I mean I hope the EU can retain its prosperity but I don't care If we remain "number 1" in terms of economic power.
More importantly I hope the EU remains the great haven of civil liberty, rule of law, a liberal society and that we will continue to respect human rights.


If we can overcome our current debt problems (which is likely in the long run) I think the EU might build up the military a little bit to be more independent from the US but the focus will remain regional!
Most people here don't want to waste to much money on the military that could be spend on schools, universities and research. At least I hope that remains the case.

I am cool with India and Brazil becoming more powerful (like China has) as long as they don't get carried away with their new power.. ;)
 
no such things as superpower for peace, it's all about self interest. What's important is balance of power
