I guess europe union will be the next.
with integrating of all country in this europe, they become more powerfull.
For example, lets see the currency. 1 euro still have a highest value..

China...were already in debt over our heads to them
The Next World Super Power?

They've outsourced such cheap work to up but we have to buy in bulk...And its horrible quality **** that costs pennies to make yet we pay a fortune...So outsourced jobs made less work here creating a complete crash of our economy and conveniently or war in iraq is creating a bigger debt...Thank mr bush(s)...By the way were in debt to china.

They've just invaded Tibet and are due to host the upcoming Olympics.

Perfect time to show off the results of their very strict military training from a young age...Sound familiar-hitler olympics...Its not so long ago that the last emperor was removed militarily...China is still a waring nation and a force to be reckoned with .

Superpower wont exist
The Next World Super Power?

If the world is still here in 20 years the US will still have the title. The only reason China is coming up is because of the US and other countries sell out their people to get sh&% made in a 3rd world country. China is still 20 years behind becoming anything and they are too bothered by taking over Tibet and Taiwan they forget about their goal and piss other nations off. The truth is before there is another superpower nukes will start flying because of mans stupidity for power. This land is my land but I want your land too.

I am just hoping that NASA finds us a back-up place to live soon.

P.S. The worst US president of all time is Bush. Thank God he got elected again and maxed out his term. Goodbye to Bush forever. Now, can I get a hell yeah!

China and India must tread more lightly than they have so far.
The Next World Super Power?

It seems that China and/or India are far too volatile and unbecoming to become the next superpower/s it would seem more appropriate if the next nation or continent to hold the world superpower title be the european union it seems, unlike China or India to have a remarkable high standard of law and justice, also it has not been influenced by outside sources nearly as much as the two asiatic contenders it seems to be more reasonable, organised and far-sighted view as a wonderful website once said the you.S.A is a caravan yet Europe is a citadel.

"A citadel is a solid, permanent building, a fortress designed to survive any crisis and protect those within it from all the dangers outside. It is a permanent dwelling. A caravan is constantly moving, seeking new horizons, leaving the past behind."

It would seem that after the two most horrific events in the twentieth century that europe that formed the EU soon after the war would after so long be ready to take on the world and restore sensibility to the masses.
China and India seem to resemble the american caravan more than the citadel China especially since it should be apparent that unless they are more careful what happened to Russia will happen to them, and it isnt exactly like the chinese were unwilling when they found that the Imperial family and Imperial justice were unruly to abolish them as soon as possible. India besides the fact that it relies heavily on europe (not so much America) would be the more likely contender if one thinks about it rationally. If one looks at the dominating empires they always have a relatively high standard of living compared to the other nations they always have a strong economic background of the preious twenty years at the least and a relatively decent justice system. China and India simply because of land size and population are not as likely to become the next as europe is. Europe will reign again as the supreme power. Preservation and remembrance of ones past mistake swill prove far more valuable than any amount of underpaid workers or drive for absolute power. The Chinese and Indians must tread far more carefully than they have so far if they wish to succeed in there goal of world dominance.

The super power to be
The Next World Super Power?

Peace be with all of you reading this.
There is know doubt that the super power today is the USA along side the isrealies who have been arse licking each other for many years.
The worrld was at peace at the time when the muslims run it, startiing from the Arabian peninsula. The Muslims will rule again, and the time span is very short.
Hold your thoughts about other ruling nations a look into islam. Islam is on the rise like never before. This is a promise to mankind. And promises like this have never and will neva be broken.
Think ahead...

Russia is a superpower as the US government has announced Russia is back in the Superpower
Status. I have seen CNN news mentioned it dozens of times Russia is a full fledge Superpower.
The US is not longer the sole Superpower, it is two nations: Russia and the USA,
However it is Russia's goal to suppress the leading Superpower by 2012 and they certainly well.
The United States is out of money and the US economy is on a major down fall and Russia is
Instead of 10th place of the fastest growing economies is being placed at 5th place now by
News agencies (by CNN) and US government officials.

Russia does seem to be a big country with a strong economy to be a superpower once again, but many seem to not forget the days of the old "Soviet Russia" where the economy was controlled through communism. Granted, there are a few countries that are communist, but this seems to be either decreasing, or freedom seems to be a bit eased in a few of those countries.

As for the next super power, I'd have to say the European nations that have the one currency "the euro" could be a good case of being a 'super power'. Tis seem a shame that the UK decided not to combine their currency under the Euro like the other european nations.

Turkey maybe can be seen as trying to set his democratic system since 1923 after the fall of Ottoman Empire. But don't forget that in 1281 Ottomans were only about 400 men. After Ottomans indepence in 1299, conquered one by one with his limited man availability, while he grows his army became countless.
So Turkey the grandsons of Ottomans will take his power back when he stops the unimportant discussions in his lands.
But Turkey politics "Peace at home, peace in the world".
