Next Power Country

Right now, USA is obviously the power country of the world. It being the richest, most poweful, etc. In around 100 years from now (if the earth is still alive), which country do you think wil be the most powerful, would it still be america?

were talking about 100 years from now

so, here are the two possible scenarios

A) America is still the world's only superpower

B) there are no superpowers

Meh some people will say China, Japan, or some other Asian country but lets look at the facts people.

1. In 100 years from now countries like Japan will have made such technological leaps as to create artificial intelligence. This A.I. or what I like to call them robots will inevitably turn on them and wipe them out making it impossible for them to be the next super power.

2. The Asian countries on the off chance that they arent destroyed by robots will become so advanced they will find ways to colonize other planets and leave Earth behind making it impossible for them once again to be a super power on Earth.

3. Australia will go to war for some nonsenical reason which will be the end of everyone as we know it, including Japan and China.

So in short it can be seen that obviously the U.S......S.R. will be the dominant super power to come.So embrace our culture now comrade or be crushed by our undeniable strength.

Well then...:oops: China

But America is always a posibility.mayormoose

how can america be the next superpower if it already is?

by posibility i mean it has the potential to stay super power.

Most likely the EU, it already is richer than the US, it only needs a little more centralization.

The pound is worth more than double the dollar. The US has lost all its power and respect.

China ftw

America has power andany loss of respectwas because of some poor decisions made by Bush Administration, but he's out in 2008:D

Because they aren't trying.

The military budget of the EU is 300 billion (dollars) and the budget of the US is 500. If the EU really wanted to compete with the US they could easily increase that budget, but there's no need to destroy the balance.

Yes military might is important, but have you ever heard of economic and social influence? The USSR had major industrialisation programs in the first half of the 20th century which played a decisive role.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying...

analysts predict that as soon as dubai is finished india will be the next construction playground

but other than that china is going to spiral out of control and mr tax man will have a field day on my fuel

even if they increased the budget, they still coulden't be as great as us. we were still the superpower before we started the war in iraq. before the wars in afghanistan and iraq, we only spent 250 billion dollars a year

The USA is not the most powerful country in the world. They don't have the funding or the man power in order to "hold" their power if the need were to arise. All they have is technology and they lose the technology edge, they pretty much would lose any sort of conflict they would become part of.

China right now is probably the most powerful country on the planet in terms of economic development and man power.

China will be the new "West" in a few years as long as there is a smooth transition between petroleum and alternative fuel sources.

That's why I'm saying that they need time to centralize, the question wasn't: "Who's the world's super power" it was : "who'll be the next super power".

Yep. We're gonna make a comeback! :D

Ok seriously it'll probably be China or India.

The EU isn't going to centralize any more and let's hope it doesn't. The difference in cultures and languages between the member-states is too big to even consider joining together even more than they currently are.

it will be like between WW1 and WW2, many great powers but no superpoweripodequalzsuxxr

not really, a new constitution has already been approved, it's only a matter of time.....and the average European doesn't mind it at all.
