Rank the world's superpowers

[rasterbee]

This isn't political. We're not arguing over whether the Democrats or Republicans are better. Or which is a better country. Just wanna see what people think are the current standings in the race for global control over everything.

Just for clarification, here's Wikipedia's definition of superpower:

"A superpower is a state with a leading position in the international system which has the ability to influence events and its own interests and project power on a worldwide scale to protect those interests.

Alice Lyman Miller (Professor of National Security Affairs at the Naval Postgraduate School), defines a superpower as "a country that has the capacity to project dominating power and influence anywhere in the world, and sometimes, in more than one region of the globe at a time, and so may plausibly attain the status of global hegemon."

Here are your options in alphabetical order:

Brazil
China
Europe
India
Russia
U.S.A.
Illuminati/Trilateral Commission/Bilderberg Group



Also, if you think one should not be included or there is a nation missing that should be in the list....just say so.
