Who Will Be the Superpower in 40-50 Years?

Does it have to be from over seas?

'Course, I'm less that happy with our current "leadership"...

I voted other, what the most likely senerio will be are several powers vying for control for power, similar to what was transpiring prior to WWI. With possible new or reconstituted nations such as the European Union, the CANZUK Federation (Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom), Brazil and the Commonwealth of Independent States challenging the established powers China, India and the United States for ever dwindling resources.

UK in two factions at the same time?

I think Col Travis is assuming that the EU would have kicked the UK out by then!

For me, Europe is too liberal, China is too isolationist, and India is nothing but a bunch of crap, so I'll just say US is likely to keep its superpower status for another 50 years.

Actually, there is a CANZUK society that has been working on creating a closer political, military and economic bonds between its member states, with the possible creation of a CANZUK Federation.

CANZUK seems to be reasonably well thought out. But my Gods, ask'em to toss the background flowers on the web page. Definitely muddles the message by dividing the attention of the reader.
