Five Most Powerful Countries In The World
Let’s take a look at the five most powerful countries in the world. The powerful countries are the ones that outline the world’s economic patterns, are policymakers and they have strong defense and military.
5. United Kingdom
Number five on the list is the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is an acknowledged nuclear weapons country and its defense budget is ranked 5th globally. It takes its defense very seriously and its military is respected and feared. The UK still employs a strong economic, cultural, military, political and scientific influence internationally. The United Kingdom has also been the permanent member of the United Nations Security Council and
4. Germany.
Next on our list is Germany. Germany is the most populous country in the European Union. Germany owns one of the world’s biggest economies, and its role in the foreign community has seen a steady rise since the collation. Germany has a powerful economy, but is necessarily limited by it being a smaller nation compared to the United States or China. Germany’s military power is not as powerful as the top three powerful nations in this list, but it’s still lethal and is always ready to jump into action.

3. China.
China, with the largest population globally, is the third most powerful nation in the world. Over the past few years, China’s influence has increased globally. China’s military budget of the year is only a fraction of that of the US. However, the country is still ranked second for its powerful defense system. Moreover, China has the second highest nominal GDP as per the United Nations. The Chinese military has also shown rapid growth in its size and capabilities, with more than 2.3 million active personnel and an extra 1.1 million. Huge, isn’t it?
When we consider human resources, the biggest military in the world is China. This nation has the potential to reach the top spot in the long run. However, China does have many hurdles to overcome if it wants to be the number one superpower in the world. Napoleon Bonaparte, French military and political leader from 1979 to 1821, once said about China, China is a sleeping giant. Let her sleep, for when she awakes, she will shake the world.

2. Russia.
Russia is a highly influential country, hence it’s ranked second in the most powerful countries list. The main reason is the country’s role in understanding the geopolitics and maintaining stability in areas under turmoil and destructed due to the US coalition. It isn’t easy to talk about the scale of the country being the largest country by landmass globally, Russia is part of all Northern Asia and most of Eastern Europe. There have been immense historical, geographical, geopolitical pressures on Russia that has in a way forced them to be extremely powerful for survival purposes. They need to be powerful to defend the nation from the superpower at any time.
All this has made Russia an army nation and not just another country. Russia’s economy is the second largest as well as its industry and military. Not many people know that Russia is also advanced in technologies. We do not mean mobile phone homes in this case or any other consumer products. We mean heavy industry which is more significant than any other techno industry in the country. This is why no one wants to be on the bad books of Russia.
1. USA.
Retaining its position as the world superpower country is the United States of America. USA has access to the world’s most superior economic and military power. The vast production of media in the country such as movies and music has also caused a cultural influence on the rest of the world. When it comes to national power, the USA is far ahead than the rest of the countries. The USA’s wealth and military capabilities are unmatched and hence is the highest in the world.
According to Economist, any country’s longterm growth depends on its geography, demography and political institutions. Fortunately, the United States has an advantage in all three groups. Being the only nation with the highest number of young and highly educated people, it is not surprising that the US workforce is the third largest and most efficient. Being the most dominant military power country in the world comes with many benefits.
These are the five most powerful countries in the world.
