US, China… and who?

Unless you’re counting the EU as a country I don’t see it.

The traditional take on this might be Russia. But seeing as they can’t even win a war with Ukraine, I’m just not seeing it.

    You'd think it'd be India. It's actually fascinating how a nation of their size and population does such a good job of maintaining their own irrelevancy.

    Starting with negative money, no assets, massive non native disease outbreaks, and a population boom. It's not really that fascinating compared to other colonies it's just what happens, North America got lucky by being separate and far away.
