lcuky for you americans europe does not have the power to take over :-(
here's a quick lesson in becoming a super-power:
- get a GOOD economy, until your the best of the world.
- you now have power.
- to keep power, get large military
This is the bad part, military cost lots of money.
The super-power wil now slowly lose it strength.
At a point an other country will get stronger and become the super-power.
thats why europe cant take over the economy is not good enough,(i'm not saying its bat, just not good enough for becomming super-power)
THe usa can only try to slow down the prosses of becoming les powerfull.
When you look at the world at the moment you can see china and other asian country becomming economicly powerfull. Scientist all agree that the next super-power will be an asian one, and probeply China.
To bad for the world that the us was doing a good job slowing this proses down, but now with bush fighting wars, it can only take some 20 years for asia to take over. (which will probeply be bad to :-( )
