What is a superpower nation?
Not a nation with the crisis over religion, caste, economy, or such reasons creating a difference between the people of the country
Currently, the USA the superpower among the world does not feature such a crisis it has a good education system, the world's most healthy economy, and technological advances. Although international competition for global dominance has been stiff, the United States has managed to maintain its role as a global superpower because they have the world’s most technologically-advanced machinery. Even though there are such other nation in the race of gaining their dominance over the world
Potential superpowers
suffering from global pandemic (COVID19) causing the low economic growth, high death rate, inflation, and increasing unemployment in the world, even in this situation there still some nations in the race or potential superpowers
China is referred to as an emerging superpower followed by the European Union and BRIC economies comprising Brazil, Russia, india.collectively the nations have the one-third of total land area and half of the world’s population, even the 68% of the global nominal economy belongs to these nations.
There is no single formula to detect which country could be the next superpower. Every time a country was being hailed by people as the next superpower, something always tanked for it and another would begin ruling the roost.
There was a time when people probably saw the likes of Germany as a superpower who could counter Great Britain. Even the Germans had that “1000 years Reich” slogan, but then came World War 2 and we all know which way it went. The USA and the Soviet Union were new superpowers.
There was a time when people after World War 2, Japan was very close to becoming a rising giant again, however that didn’t happen. Japan is still very much a well-off nation, but not technically a superpower.
Today as most will say, the USA vs China thing, and many even believe that China might surpass the USA.
But as the pattern of things goes in the world, I am nowhere going to be surprised if they get proven wrong.
