Only 3 countries qualify as super powers

Even though UNSC has 5 permanent members having veto power, only 3 of them, Russia, China, America qualify as super powers. A super power has 1 piece of contiguous land not crossing international territory spanning 4000+ km, aircraft carrier(s), strategic bombers, nuclear ballistic missile submarines.
and who made the rules . specially 4000+km territory . nehru gifted permanent membership to china ( https://thewire.in/diplomacy/when-nehru-refused-american-bait-on-a-permanent-seat-for-india-at-the-un )
 
Nope. They lack 1 piece of land spanning 4000+ km. Britain used to have one in Africa spanning from Egypt to South Africa.

They do fancy all of these land and countries in so called Akhand Bharat, isn't it so....so a wannabe supa powa in future...

a super power needs to have both global economic & military influence comparable to an entire grouping of countries (eg: comparable to the economic influence of the EU) Russia is not a super power, it's economy is about the size of South Korea, they are at best a reagional power, & even in their own reagion (Eastern Europe) Germany's influence is higher than that of Russia, nowadays the US & to a much less extent Germany dictates what happens in Europe, Russia? the only thing they have to affect dicisions of EU members are gas prices.
don't get me wrong I love Russia the most but the reality is that Russia has now even lost Ukraine for good.
 
The most beautiful cheese in the world is made by the Swiss.

Doesn't that make them superpowers?

But all your other superpowers will someday fall to Brazil's feet.

Because the most beautiful women are there. Yes my final decision, Brazil is ultra, spectacular inaccessible superpower.

France and Britain are the winners of this. Check out all the islands around the world they control. It is beyond insane. https://defence.pk/pdf/threads/nati...-overseas-territories-and-possessions.390961/

Small islands. Not much use. Britain once had a patch of Africa spanning Egypt all the way to South Africa.

There are 2 superpowers. US and China.

Any country can make 100 trillion USD out of thin air. Since the 1930s money ain't tied to material like gold or silver anymore. Money is number. Number is infinite.
