China, India, Brazil, Iran: Superpowers of the Future
For last many years, a discussion is going on in print and electronic media that who will be the next super power. The list of superpowers includes names of many countries. But I think, that not any single country will be a superpower in the world in future, as their will be many powerful countries in the world. Powerful in the sense of economy, science and technology, military, culture and so many things.
But many countries can never become powerful, and few will surely become. This will depend on two things. First is the population and second is the geographical area. Population and geographical area are two most essential things to become a super power.
