China is the new superpower : they built half of the goods, has a powerfull military and are the only nation with a decent space program for the future.
India and the European union power is only economic.
China number 1 in less than 15 years

I'd give the US about fifty more years of being the most powerful nation, but there's really no telling. Powerful civilizations tend to crash dramatically. Of course, even if we did, we'd still have the best military left over for a little while.
China might overtake us, but I think they won't last that long either. The EU isn't as powerful necessarily, but I think it will be a world power for any foreseeable future.
I do pray daily for America, but we have become complacent in our prosperity.

Wake up people!
The chances are really good! In fact, if China realizes how much money they are lending us at VERY LOW rate to buy their products, our economy could be owned by China in a couple of years!
Our balance of trade is so unfavorable right now, we are in a precarious position. And though we MIGHT POSSIBLY (not a given) have military supremacy, we are stretched far too thin in the Middle East and other hot spots!

the EU never will because they can't match our military power
India is a long way from being a Super power most of their country is still 3rd world
the only threat is from China. China Wants to be the Super Power of the world and the only way that will happen is for them to attack America and distroy our military, which I believe they are planning already

I don't know about the other two(I don't follow them enough to tell), but China is going to be the world super power in some time. I don't see any reason for them to attack us right now, as they make trillions off of us as it is.

I used to provide infinite opportunities and beauty why i became continually getting stepped on and used. I hardly provide something better than a 2d danger till you're an really close and depended on confidant.

I think china has a great chance, we already owe them a lot of money, and they already have a lot of people.
