If Russia falls(which is a possibility) or China falls(less likely) then Germany will be more powerful.

And you can't really have a stand off with a nuclear power and win.


yeah but germany has the most economic power you know holding the EU together

And that is why it can be considered a Great Power, perhaps the Great Power of Europe, but because it doesn't have the projective power of the US(which even China doesn't have) it will not have the rank of superpower unless it's economics can significantly impact governments across the world and place countries under Germany's influence.

All we know now is that USA will remain be a superpower. That and the possibility of China to expands its influences to the Asia to counter the USA's influences.

The point is though is that no reasonable person would choose the PRC over the United States.

It's like asking whether or not you'd rather live in the USSR or 50s era united states. The only people who would reasonably say the USSR are those who have drunk far too much koolaid.

I will turn my house into a country, name it "Pwnyoassistan", and bankrupt the US by not paying taxes. The US will crumple due to the couple thousand dollars to run the country it lacks and drag every country down with it because all the other countries depend on trading with it. However, Pwnyoassistan will rise out of the ashes and become the new super power of 2050.

Join the new leadership.

I hate to say but I think China will rise as the next superpower.

They are silent, less interfering with other nation affair, and they think money money and money...

Look at their power now, one word to North Korea and everything's back to normal. I just can't imagine someday if China owns 80% of the US territory.

So if we all have the real american spirit, support our american made product more than made in China. Its cost more but it help keep jobs and encourages our enterpreneur to move ahead. Discourage outsourcing and BPO if possible. Let'snot interfere matter that has no monetary influence... really man, I say we are loosing money fast.

In terms of what?

Indonesia is larger in territories and population, economy on rise.

Will probably become regional power, if the military enters the modernization.

Comparing both economy, yes I agree that Germany will be most likely than Indonesia.

Yes there is a lot, but Germany is way ahead. Unless there is another Adolf Hitler who makes the same mistake, then there is no reason why Germany will loose the race to Indonesia.
