Answering another question gave me the thought to ask this question. What would you say are the 10 most powerful countries, in order influentially, or overall. By that I mean a combination of their diplomatic status, their wealth, their military force, their trade relations, their production, their influence over other countries, their resources, all of those things and anything else you can think of.
Thinking about it, I've come up with a list of countries which would be logical without any order. Just some of the world's more powerful countries in my opinion.
USA
Russia
China
India
Iran
Saudi Arabia
Israel
Britain
France
Germany
North Korea (who supposedly have the 5th largest military on Earth)
Japan
Pakistan (Nuclear Capabilities)
Canada (Oil reserves)
Nigeria (probably the most powerful country in Africa)
This is just speculation on my part though, I don't have any facts supporting it. I just want to see what you guys think.
