I’m just saying in advance the only ones that will be fully satisfied with this post are the people from the country that is in the number one place. After long research we’ve put together a list of 10 most powerful countries based on a few factors. If you are not satisfied then leave a comment below or share this with your friends for a second opinion.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Our list is based on the following factors.
1. The amount of influence the country has on the world stage in politics and economics.
2. The economic strength of the country.
3. The military strength of the country.
4. Bonus Points: Nuclear Capability, Natural Resources, Population, Status in UN.
1. United States of America
Whether you like or not United States is the most powerful country in the world. With the lagest economy of $14 trillion, which by the way is a quater of world total GDP. The strongest army the world has ever seen. For all those that didn’t know US spend over $700 billion on their military in 2009, thats more then the whole world combined. Accounting for almost a half of worlds nuclear weapons having army bases and military presense in Asia,Europe Middle east and South America truly shows that United States is the Worlds Only Remaining Super Power.
I’ll just mention couple of more facts about U.S.
(1) U.S. has many powerful allies who they really control, for example: UK, Japan, South Korea, Israel, Colombia and many more.
(2) U.S. holds one of the 5 UN Security Council Seats.
(3) U.S. is home to world’s leading companies like Microsoft, Google, Apple and many more.
(4) U.S. is home to Hollywood and basicly to all the influential Film Studios (And Movies are watched by millions if not billions and definitely influences the way people think)
(5) U.S. Has World’s 3rd biggest population of 308 million people and is the 3rd largest country in the world with many natural resources.
(6) U.S. has the world’s most influential culture.
(7) U.S. is a nuclear power with 2,468/9,600 nuclear weapons.
2. People’s Republic of China
It’s not a question of If? but When? will China become world’s second superpower. The biggest nation in the world with 1.3 billion people (every 6th person in the world is a citizen of China). China has the second biggest economy in the world $5.7 trillion and is the fourth largest country in the world with many natural resources. China is the the second largest resource consumer which gives a great political power. China is the second biggest military spender with a military budget ($80 billion). In 2009 China committed to modernizing their giant army, plus China is building up their navy and will soon have the biggest navy in the world. Obviously their army is not of the best quality but whatever the lack in quality they can make up in numbers.
I’ll just mention couple of more facts about China.
(1) China has many allies who they really control, for example: North Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Burma and many more.
(2) China holds one of the 5 UN Security Council Seats.
(3) Chinas economy will become worlds biggest by 2050 with an estimated $38 trillion
(4) China is a nuclear power with 180/240 nuclear weapons.
(5) China has the world’s largest military force, with approximately 3 million members.
3. Russian Federation
Russian Federation is the direct inheritor of Soviet Union. No doubt the greatest dream of any Russian president and citizen is to attain the old glory of being a super power again. Russia is the largest country in the world, covering more than a ninth of the Earth’s land area. Russia is also the ninth most populous nation with 142 million people. It extends across the whole of northern Asia and 40% of Europe, spanning 9 time zones and incorporating a wide range of environments and landforms. Russia has the world’s largest reserves of mineral and energy resources. It has the world’s largest forest reserves and its lakes contain approximately one-quarter of the world’s freshwater. Though Russia has a very poor economy and doesn’t use their resources properly, they are making an economic recovery. Russia like the USA account for almost a half of worlds Nuclear Weapons and has enough of them to essentially destroy the Earth. With a very outdated but giant army which showed it’s inability in the 2 Chechen Wars, Russia pledged to modernize their army.
I’ll just mention couple of more facts about Russia.
(1) Russia has many allies who they really control, for example: Ukraine, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan and more
(2) Russia holds one of the 5 UN Security Council Seats.
(3) Russia is a nuclear power with 4,650/12,000 nuclear weapons.
(4) Russia has world’s 5th biggest military budget ($61 billion).
4. French Republic
French Republic has UN security council membership, is a nuclear power and has a lot of influence over Africa. It is also a G7 / G8 / G20 economy, is a leading democracy, and has a quite large army, one of worlds most powerful in fact. France is world’s 5th biggest economy with a GDP ($2.6 trillion). Added to this EU membership gives it extra power, and helps make it’s borders, and region peaceful and stable. France together with Germany have a big say in the EU economically and politically. France also seems more able to act on it’s own accord than Britain. France is the largest west-European country and possesses second-largest Exclusive Economic Zone in the world, covering 11,035,000 km2 (4,260,000 mi2). France has the 3rd biggest nuclear arsenal consisting of 300 Nuclear Weapons and a very well equipped and trained modern army. French Armed Forces constitutes the largest military in the European Union in terms of man-power and the third largest in NATO. France has world’s 4th biggest military budget of $67 billion.
5. United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
British influence can still be observed in the language, culture and legal systems of many of its former colonies. Though not a world super power anymore UK is still very powerful. UK is world’s 6th biggest economy with a $2.1 trillion GDP. The UK is one of the world’s most globalised countries. London is the world’s largest financial center alongside New York, has the largest city GDP in Europe and is home to the headquarters of more than 100 of Europe’s 500 largest companies. The aerospace industry of the UK is the second- or third-largest aerospace industry in the world, depending upon the method of measurement. UK has the 4th biggest nuclear arsenal consisting of 160/225 Nuclear Weapons. UK has the world’s 3rd biggest military budget of $69 billion. The British armed forces are the second largest military in the EU in terms of professional personnel and reserves. Also the UK has the largest air force and navy in the European Union and the second largest in NATO. UK has the second highest power projection capability in the world, behind the United States.
6. Republic of India
India is a sleeping giant that is just starting to wake up. As in the case of China it is not a question of If? but When? will India become world’s third superpower. It is estimated that by 2050 India will be world’s 3rd biggest economy with a GDP ($37 trillion). Also India will become the most populous country in the world by 2025 taking that title away from China. But the reality is that for now India is a very poor country that can not provide the basic needs for it’s citizens nevertheless it is still a military power (China & Russia also can’t provide basic needs for their citizens). With a population of 1.2 billion India is the second most populous country in the world (every 6th person in the world is a citizen of India). With a GDP of $1.2 trillion India has world’s 10th biggest military budget ($36 billion) but the actual spending on the armed forces is estimated to be much higher than that. The Indian military currently employs some 1,325,000 Regular troops, 1,155,000 Reserve troops and 1,293,300 Paramilitary troops (total of 3,773,300 troops),thus giving India the second-largest standing military in the world as of 2010 after the China.
Undergoing rapid expansion and modernization, the Indian Armed Forces plans to have an active military space program and is currently developing a missile defense shield and nuclear triad capability. The Armed Forces of India possess nuclear weapons and operate short and intermediate-range ballistic missiles as well as nuclear-capable aircraft, and naval vessels. India is the world’s largest arms importer and ranks among the top thirty in arms export. Currently, India imports close to 70% of its weapons requirements largely from Russia, Israel, and more recently, the United States. The country’s defense expenditure will be around $112 billion by 2016. Also India has the 6th biggest nuclear arsenal consisting of 80 Nuclear Weapons.
7. State of Japan
Compared to others Japan is a very small country with no natural resources, yet it’s the third richest country in the world with a GDP of $5.2 trillion dollars(that’s 4 times more than Russia which is World’s biggest country & richest in natural resources). Japan was able to establish and maintain itself as the world’s second largest economy since 1968, until supplanted by the People’s Republic of China in 2010. Japan is also the world’s fourth largest exporter and fifth largest importer. It is currently serving as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council. Japan has the world’s 7th biggest military budget ($46 billion).

Germany together with France have a big say in the EU economically and politically. Germany has the world’s 6th biggest military budget ($48 billion).
The Bundeswehr(German Armed Forces) employs 200,500 professional soldiers, 55,000 18–25 year-old conscripts who serve for at least six months under current rules, and 2,500 active reservists at any given time. Roughly 300,000 reservists are available to the Armed Forces and participate in defense exercises as well as deployments abroad. As of November 2009, the German military had about 8,300 troops stationed in foreign countries as part of various international peacekeeping forces, including 2,470 Bundeswehr soldiers in Kosovo, 4,520 German troops in the NATO-led ISAF force in Afghanistan and Uzbekistan, and 450 troops with UNIFIL in Lebanon.

Mate! This list is rubbish Uk should have been before France and Russia. We have bigger Economy then both of them and we have the second highest power projection capability in the world, behind the United States
Here is my top 10
1.Us
2.China
3.UK
4.Russia
5.India
6.France
7.Pakistan
8.Turkey
9.Germany
10.Japan
I think you are right bro!
i think this is the order
1.USA
2.China
3.Russia
4.Germany
5.UK
6.France
7.India
8.Isreal
9.Italy
10.Brazil
Nah Pakistan aint there! I think the original list was better!
UK is a small overpopulated island, and it definitely doesn’t come before Russia nor China.
Russia is literally the biggest country in the World and posses even more nuclear power than the US. Imagine that we would’t need much of the Nuclear Power for such a small country as the United Kingdom. I hope this never happens though cauze we are not enemies.
I agree germany is better than france. France is a pos country that hasn’t won a war in 700 years, takes credit for ww1 and ww2 even though they got their asses handed to them in both wars and had to be rescued and are very arrogant for no reason. Germany is an economic super power that controls the eu. The only reason france is above germany is because they have one of the 5 permanent seats on the U.N. giving them more political power than germany.
So idiotic. Can’t even take the time to point out the stupidity in that statement. We Beat you in ww1 and played a role in ww11. We beat you with Napoleon. We occupied you after ww1 and ww11. So suck it.
DARPA invented the internet
Britain did not invent the internet ( invented in America) but they did invent the world wide web ( and before any idiot complains the internet and world wide web are two different things)
the uk invented nearly everything including the internet so up yours. you try and take credit for ww2 when realy it was britian and russia that did it mostly because you came at the end of the war
By the way. Thanks for leaving France and running like cowards while we fought to cover your retreat in Dunkirk.
Irregardless who created the internet, Microsoft and Apple dominate the technology world and that was America.
no offense but usa and russia pretty much saved europes ass from germany, if us didnt join then basically europe and russia would be ruled by Germany
You’re forgetting the importance of Britain in WWII
Without Britain WWII couldn’t have been won (the same goes for USSR and USA). It took all 3 nations to stop Hitler and liberate Europe.
Britain was the first nation to defeat Hitler (the Battle of Britain in 1940)
Britan was consisted of many indian solders in ww2 & the money it looted from India was used for it
u all r idiot and fool pakis is the 7th powerful country because its 4th in nuclear and it has 700 combat jets and if u knw that pak in 1971 1972 and in kargil pak has demo the indian 864 jet and demo their supply line in soviet afghan war pak destroyed 11 intruder of soviet jets and if u knw the indian coward still scared frm pak if u open pak airforce history encyclopedia u will knw the truth pakistan is a friendly country and luvs all countries thanks
Umair……Go Fuuuuck Kuran…….LOL…..All wars u have mentioned won by india….
Assalamo allaikum Umair. I am Shahid from India.I know almost all history about India and Pakistan war but dont bother about Rakesh comment. We have many Rakesh here in india who does not know ABCD even about his own religion that’why he gave that comment but at the same time, we have many Rakesh who hate his own religion.
Do u understand what GDP means? Shitty 2 inactive rotten nuclear garbage do not count. Pakistan is a failed state if not supported by US($250 billion annually), it will soon go out of business as a country and watch over ur women from Taliban’s and Al Queda whatever shit u call ur uncles or cousins.
Hot debate what do you think?????
What is that?
im surprised i have not died laughing. pakistan, friendly? if india unleashe their might on you, then in a week your country will be just a stretch of uninhabited land
sorry dude but the USA invented the internet
England may of had its time when it was the most influential country in the world but those times are over. What do they have left to offer? They have no large exports in trade and your precious Queen has lost most of her influence.
What language you talking?
you are right. if we start thinking about past, then india would pretty much rule the world
You also have to keep in mind that England also has wizards. Since wizards can use magic, their technology is obviously much better than our own.
The British did not invent the internet. although British scientist Donald Davies whose ground-breaking work on Packet Switching was essential to the system they did not create the working systems. It was more of a joint effort.
We are not talking what they have done, we are talking what they do today, and how much push and pull in the world they have, and i would not put them above India or France, Their language is used more and they historically were greater, but not today.
The US is 37.92 times larger than the UK.
and were easy in the top 5, imagine if the the uk was the same size the rest of the world would be fxxxxd
Finally someone who realizes the true facts.
lol “Small”.
Size makes little difference. Or do you think size of the country made any difference when it came to the British Empire?
Why do you think the United States is first? Why do you think China is a step below?
Because as of now the US has a much more powerful military, economy and has multiple times more nuclear weapons.
Where is Pakistan, with nuclear weapons and missiles and important country in SA
pakistan is just a bullshit … it is pornistan
pakistan is a poor country.totaly depends upon usa.Simply can say its a failed state.Pakistan’s economy is negative.So pakistan can’t come in top 100 country
Pakistan should be #3. we made lots of awesome records and India didn’t. Pakistan is much much better than India.
you just don’t know about the power of India.
India is more powerful then Pakisthan.
India is too good then your pakisthan,we indians are united then you.
Pakisthan ranks first in terorism.Just a few weaks ago your soilders breaked the rule of seazfire and entered our country and cutted the heads of our two great soldiers.Your country army is breaking this same law every year.
we are more better than you in the field of education,peace,technology,agriculturel etc.
But i don’t want to insult you.
if you feel that i had wrote any thing wrong then i’m sorry.
for #3, you have come to the wrong place. pakistan is #3 in list of world’s most pathtic countries
Awesome fail records
No you’re so wrong Pakistan is not even close neither will it ever come in that list and neither turkey will both Pakistan and turkey sucks
Turkey is awesome
all britisher sons of thief and live on indians money otherwise they will be like a country of africa . they just theft indians money
True
True
you are mad the most powerful countries are us followed by germany. where did u go to school
I agree about China , but USA owes whole world like 1000 000 000 000 000 ,
Russia whole world sends alot of resources like – Gas , oil – They got large economy , large army for it’s popultion.
Sorry for my bad english , i’m russian.
how come brazil is #3
Are you kidding me that’s a joke with out trade from other countries England would fall apart
Australia should be in the top 10 think of how much Australia contributes
to world trade countries like England rely on Australia and Australias Intel and Military is one of the best equipped in the world. Thanks to strong alliances with other countries such as America.
Why Pakistan?? what do they have besides corruption?
Here I submit that India is always behind of Pakistan,then how it is 2 numbers ahead of Pakistan, Pakistan has remained better in any field till 2004 than India, then how does the India can get stronger than Pakistan, Pakistan is the strongest country in Asia after china.
Here I put my expression about Power:
1.U.S.A
2.China
3.Russia
4.U.K
5.Pakistan
6.Germany
7.France
8.Iran
9.India
10.Japan.
Pakistan is way behind India’s ass
this is stupid, everyone underestimates the UK. We owned america for 300 hundred years and still should be owning it today because we discovered the damn place. And also America are so full of themselves they think there so good. China will overtake them.
Actually it was an Italian funded by the Spanish crown who discovered the place! where did you go to school?
Where is India fool
Dude are you mad , Russia is the 1.st it destroyed half Europe :
not only ,
Mongols & Arabs : 1098
Polish Commonwealth & Kingdom of Sweden , Prussia : 1655
France : 1800s
Germany : 1912s
Germany Again : 1945s
Russia would beat UK in day. They got
2 334 000 of Troops
USA got – 1 459 000
China – like 4 000 000
UK got idk how many but not even 100 000!
dude dont think of past. when all europeans,americans etc were hunter gatherers, indians had started off civilization
east or west India is the best……………………..I love my India
Actually, the French have a better economy.

5.UK
6.France
7.Japan
8.USA
9.Germany
10.Pakistan

1.USA
2.China
3.India
4.Russia
5.Japan
6.Germany
7.Pakistan

4.United Kingdom

8.Japan
9.Italy
10.South Korea
Visit Wikipedia: List of countries by military expenditures
Nuclear weapons states
China
France
Russia
United Kingdom
United States
Your nuclear weapon stats are wrong accurate is…
1.USA
2.China
3.Russia
4.Pakistan
5.Saudia Rabia
U.K and France are quite low in nuclear power
You are all WRONG!……..Taliban & Vietcong are #1 they are the most powerful they both defeated the US!
How could guerrilla militia defeat the only super power in the world?
I don’t think that Germany should be on place 8. Germany is the most powerful country in the EU if you look at the economy fact.
HAHA the UK kicked germanys butt twice
No, that was the US. We bailed you and France out 2x. I’m American and proud military historian, and I can tell you that the German military of WW2 is probably the best I have ever seen since ancient times. They literally rocked your entire continent single-handedly. Germans allies in all those wars were liabilities.
If you know history then you know that if it had been JUST Germany VS the US the US would have been slaughtered. The US didn’t have anywhere near the technical and military ability of Germany(Heck Patton still believed in Calvary! And it wasn’t untill the Germans showed the world what tanks could do that he eventually changed his mind). It’s pretty easy to talk trash when you see 2 people fighting and you just sit there and watch and then 1/2 way through jump in and declare yourself savior.
Have you ever read a non US history book?
seriously? at the end of WWII america had about half of the worlds industrial capacity. even if they had not been destroyed america could have fought the axis on its own and won. it would have been far bloodier and lasted much longer but especially considering the manhattan project the end result would have been the same.
The only reason America emerged as a superpower in both wars is because of their isolationist ideals. In World War I, they suffered the least amount of casualties because they entered the war in its final hour. The same goes for World War II, in which they came in against Japan and helped the Allies weave their way through Europe. And get this: how many modern wars are fought on American soil?
shut the fuck up
Id Say your both wrong! and it was German arrogance and shake economy in WW1 and Hitler’s pure insanity in WW2 that defeated the Germans! the US and Uk’s contributions were theat they had good sense to capitalize on these internal weaknesses!… also 3 million Russian troops slogging it out on the eastern front didn’t hurt!
V2 rockets away!
live long sovient russia and india frd ship
You would have been crunched without the u.s. look guy. No matter how much you say it you will never be stronger than us. So ha ha HA.
the UK would have gotten there asses handed to them in WW2 if the Germans weren’t fighting so many other countries and if Germany right now without the interference of any other country or nuclear weapons were to fight Germany would be the victor and there’s know doubt about it
The only reason the UK hasn’t been beaten yet is there many powerful allies
piss off i will kick you ass any day
You forgot the fact they live on an Island! France would control all of Europe if it were not for that fact. Oh, and Russia.

Please check you facts properly
khanzer ke bache tum pakistani ho nahe section
You Sir are not a Pakistani. Please stop pretending and rediculating Pakistan. I as a Pakistani, love my country and would give anything for it anytime. So will the other 180 million, no doubt. Most of us have no hatred for anyone or any country in specific. We want peace as our religion teaches us so. Thank you.
You people are debating about Pakistan even it is not a developed country.but your arguments say somethintg that you know the potential of Pakistan.

‘India has worlds’s 10th biggest military budget ($36 billion) “but the spending on the armed forces is estimated to be much higher than that”
what rubbish, India is a democracy, the Defence Ministry is accountable to the people. $36 billion is not a small amt. When you have a billion people to feed. This sentence will suite China and not India.
nukes are use-less, they have not been used since 1945 and there no possibility of their being used in the near future. so they should not be used for ratings
Spenta don’t see military budget. See military strength. India is in rank of 2nd in military strength. Total world faced inflation effect which one of reason that just 20% development in india(according to obama words). First know that why US being afraid of growing power INDIA,CHINA.
Not really. I don’t care how big china and india’s armies and economys get they still don’t have the nukes. Scenario: China and india become the 2 biggest superpowers in the world, combine forces, declare war on the u.s. and sends their armies to attack. The u.s. launches 1000 nukes at both countries completely destroying them and kill everyone in them. The end.
if you think that US attack INDIA & CHINA then it to wrong if thy attack on US only 10 to 15 days require to finish the US
lol.. u really think India and China dont have nukes???? how ignorant you are!! China can demolish US.. India needs time..
you must know that China ranks 1 and India ranks 2 in the popullation.If both the countries unitelly attack on US then it will be very difficult for you to live there.
few days ago only India has tested their under water missille K15 and China had also tested their interceptor and Y20.
so sorry to US
India has lot of nukes and those nukes are smarter(IT field) than america
My list I think is the most accurate
and goes like this
1. China
2. United States
3. Russia
4. Brazil
5. United Kingdom
6. Turkey
7. Iran
8. Germany
9. India
10. Pakistan
i agree with you but…the last one is not corract because pakistan is more powerfull then india….if you think i am lying go and resarch brother plzzz thanks
I think you need research
pakis are really silly people…..seriously
Dear All,

Both are sucks.. they hide every true news to spread among its own people. they lie to their people that after partion from india in 1947 they have got better life than indians and pakis growing much faster than india…by showing pictures of poor people and slums of india in their News channels.. but world knows WHO IS BETTER!!!…
Within 10 years India will be the most powerful country in the world.

brazil have 190 millions of people. not only 90.
Although the us n uk have strong ties the uk is not and could not b controlled by the us. Let us not forget the uk sacrafised its status as a world superpower defending the free world almost alone for 2 years in ww2 against a stronger better supplied enemy. Show the country the respect it deserves
Yep. With supplies from the U.S. the U.K. held off Germany alone after the French surrendered in the 3rd minute of the fight.
Nepal the most powerful country

proud to be indian, i will go on with your comment, world wait till 2050 then you guys will know who is the real super power.
The rate at which India is developing is way too fast. It’ll become the 3 most powerful country by 2025 and second most powerful country by 2050.
You are right.
I think that the peoples of TINDIA are such realy afraid to PAKISTAN. He knows that the distroyeness of TINDIA are in the hands of PAKISTAN. He absolutly knows that the face of TINDIA as a looser country. He was the child of PAKISTAN. He always run away in the battle place like some(1948’and 1965).He can not face pakistan in every field of the world. BYE BYE AND SHAME ON YOU TINDIANA.
can’t understand how these paki son of a **** think that they are stronger than india.we kicked your ass in 1971 and broke you into two piece’s now our eye’s are on balochistan.Remember history repeats itself ,soon balochistan also will not be a part of that failed country pigistan.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA…….. YOU are kicked to pakistan while your kick broken to be pakistan in (1948’and 1965)…. Go to in past and remember your distirattion .your future also in the hands of pakistan . hah and your army (looser army?) solute to be pakistan army. your soldiers in wagah border his penti was wet ,,, he looser face to pakistan army, go in hell TINDIA.
first learn to write english properly noob!! guess thats the standard of education in pakistan. yet another child left behind!
your comment proves that for pakistani standards, you are quite intelligent
Guys,the most powerful country is Singapore.
I agree that Pakistan has no match for India. 1965, 1971, 1998 history speaks itself. In terms of combat capabilities India is better. Pak airforce has F-16 Falcon frm US. Indias Su -30 proved to be better than that in recent military head to head excercise with F-16s.India has second largest military and fourth largest airforce in the world. Moreover it is building a fifth generation aircraft with russia whc ll make India more powerfull. NUCLEAR SUBMARINE THAT USES sthealt technology will be ready upto 2015. So here’s my list –
US
RUSSIA
CHINA
INDIA
FRANCE
UK
GERMANY
NORTH KOREA
JAPAN
PAKISTAN
BRAZIL
Pakistan is very very & beggar terrorist in the world. Pakistan is terrorist capital country. All peoples of pakistan is terrorist. So no doubt pakistan is an useless and hated country by the world. And china also very mental disorder peoples & bloody military. They are occupied my india’s border. India will teach an end lesson to bloody beggar china.
India is gentle men country. We r not occupy any county. This is the decent country. But china, pakistan is ghost & pig countries. Jai Hind!
the way you are speaking i can see that india is a “gentle men’s”country
The most powerful country is Fiji. I win! 😀
List is excellent. There are some more countries which having good status like Turkey, Canada, South Korea, Australia, Mexico, Argentina, South Africa, Indonesia, Argentina, Saudi Arabia etc. But the list is only for 10 countries. So list is very very good. Comes to india, india is effecting by poverty. But govt is not producing basic needs is wrong.
Tasmania
Marshall Islands is # one…plenty rocks…(black magic) ahahah
i think gov of india regulating better plans for their subject but due to corruption they r not working………………………………………..india has to employ a large part of its gdp into defense. due to these god given parteners who give emphasis on increasing their power in the region. they have terrtorial conflits with india. they r threat for indian self defence hence india will have to maintain a minimum level of defense if india were in a peacefull territorry then india would not have been poor.
Yeah, list is pretty much dead on. I never knew India was considered powerful though. I always think of it as poor. Anyways, I think usa will stay at number 1 for a lot longer than people think so.
you are just one of those people who has never even been to india, but think of it as poverty stricken. come to india and see the truth
Wrong list My Bros
for me
USA
CHINA
RUSSIA
FRANCE
GERMANY
JAPAN
UNITED KINGDOM
INDIA
BRAZIL
ISRAEL OR ITALY
thank you, fuck america
Not a single bullet huh? Ever hear of Pearl Harbour?
Or to mention the sinking of US merchant vessels off the eastern seaboard. Get real, the US has given aid to countries over the years with no return on our investment. You all would be hating it if we stopped supporting all of you.
He meant bullet on mainland
Oops, I mean top two at the top of my last post. Most likely the top but as I said at the bottom because of inevitable circumstance we are now third, not for long though due to India.
Sorry for mistakes but I noticed another, when i said about growing countries that’s mostly India. China will grow more but they are second at the moment I think, to be honest I am not sure who’s second but I know it isn’t another European country, not India yet…
To me the only logical ones would be Russia and China so I chose China.
Muslim ruled India 1000 years, only because British came and gave you hindus beggars the land, doesn’t mean it is yours, you haven’t won that land and those muslims are now in Pakistan. Never think you have given us anything, and never underestimate us, we all know who is more powerful. You hindus are ass lickers of white people.
now all those muslims in pakistan are beggers…….and for your kind information indians fought for its freedom through non-violence and won the battle…..INDIA is a gentlemens country not like Pakistan (terrorist nation)
o c’mawn pakistan truly is better than india… they have made soo many bomb and attached it to people… blown up building, trained little kids to use armors! they are truly the highest of the competitors. and wat i love most is how they say “not all muslims are bad, so you should be racist against us all” really? so we’re suppose to pick and choose from some of you? nice =]
Not even 0.1% of Muslims are terrorists, its your fucking CIA and your media that has blinded you. If we really are talking about terrorists then USA’s military is the biggest by far at the moment, Killing hundreds of innocent women and children in the name of war against terror.
They follow Islam the wrong way. I am Indian.
abbey ! tere maki maderchod,i will f**k u from back…
U ALL are wrong. The US is definitely not on top if you look at their thinking process. Come on and face the fact that the US sucks. There are plenty of other outstanding countries that could top the US with their power. This is a fact, not an opinion.
North Korea Should Be On This LIST. Cause North Korea has The strongest army in the world. I think they have 100 million soldiers
I think Peter Griffins country is number one
Ireland?
Oh wait, his own one, I remember now, Petopia I think it was?
Yea number 1 easy! 🙂
Unfortunely, Petoria was later surrendered to the US following the annexation of Joehio, as Petoria was lacking in production and was forced to surrender.
Here Is My Top 10 List
#1 Afghanistan
#2 Green Peace
#3 Taliban
#4 European Union
#5 Venezuela
#6 Iran
#7 Syria has a very strong army
#8 Russia
#9 US
#10 Vietnam
Don’t Forget Vietnam Won the US
Fellow indian and the world. We all know that india is affected by corruption mostly but now a brave man Anna Hazare has given a spark to indian citizens to make the government no longer corrupt and if he succeeds india will be as good as china or turkey or even the usa 🙂
u r so totaly right the whole world knows that india has the potential of being the best in the world but it is the basatard developed countries that dont let us to develop we already have enough internal problems and unlike the us we dont kill women and children in the name of a super power,even the us know that if they attack us they are finished we run them so we are the super power
Nepal is the most powerful country . And by da way guyz many Indian claims that Buddha was born in India and Mt Everest is situated in India.They just want to tag their name in all the best part in south asia.
Indians always tries to keep eyes in others areas. Every countries which is a neigbour with india has some border issue. Peace India
CANADA IS NUMBER ONE. hahahhahahahahahhahaha just joking
bangladesh is most powerful country in the world. usa is the last number of the end.
why is colombia not there? they have most the cocaine and thats better than money or ammount of violence they cause. fuck war
I hope US Will b the powerful nation in the future and India will b the third largest economy in the world
what are you drinking?
Afghanistan and India is best
Russia controlling Ukraine?! China controlling Vietnam?! Both are nonsense. I wouldn’t even know if you can consider them ‘allies’. Both Vietnam and Ukraine have had tension with their powerful neighbors in the last decades. The word ‘control’ is wrongly used here. You should read some countries’ perspectives before you make a ranking.
China is the most powerful country in the world hands down. Of course im probably gonna get shit for this but of course in the United States, Americans have extreme nationalism going on and think they’re the shit but really they just don’t realize that if China wanted to, or Russia for that matter, could crush the United States. Not to mention that their people are far smarter both in China and Russia.
Well…my friends….leave the fight and live peacefully. Let our government do their work, contribute as much you can to your country…After all we are brothers….. And last thing…..I LOVE INDIA….
first of all I’m american. I have read comments about the untied states, saying that ww2 did not hit american soil, I ask if pearl harbor was not part of the untied states? Im asking Dude101because alot of bullets was fired there, get your facts right.
India have best economy and military power. So India is always best. and always be within 5th rank.
I think the list is.
1.USA
2.Russia
3.China
4.India
5.UK
6.France
7.Japan
8.Germany
9.Brazil
10.Italy
