This was an interesting chapter in my international relations class. The United States is the superpower of the world, and we're the only one. But how long do you predict it will be before we are superpowers with countries such as China, France, Germany, India, Russia, UK? Or maybe it will be similiar to the Cold War - except you think it will be China or a different country. What do you think? And, do you think this would be good or bad for the world?
