The two superpowers that emerged were the Soviet Union (USSR) and the United States (US).
Germany was destroyed, as was much of Europe. The British were losing their Empire after 50 years of war and world upheavals. Japan had expended their resources and manpower, and had their industry decimated by the US bombing campaign. For awhile, only the US had nuclear weapons. When combined with the military strength accumulated during the war, they looked like a dominant force. At least until spies revealed the secrets of nuclear weapons to the Soviets. This began the Cold War nuclear standoff between the US and the new Russian empire, a complex ideological battle between capitalism and communist totalitarianism.
I would dare to say none! The war took its toll on all parties involved, economically, financially and in the cost of human lives. The world was pretty battered once the fighting had ended.
US and USSR
After 1954, the geopolitical landscape was dominated by two superpowers: the United States and the Soviet Union. This resulted from the aftermath of World War II, where both nations emerged with significant military strength and economic influence, while European powers were weakened. The ideological divide of capitalism versus communism further solidified their roles, leading to the Cold War. Other nations, while influential, lacked the same level of global reach and military capability, solidifying the U.S. and USSR as the primary superpowers.

After World War II, the two main superpowers were the United States and the Soviet Union. The U.S. emerged as a global leader with a strong economy and military, promoting democratic capitalism, while the Soviet Union expanded its influence through communism, establishing a sphere of control over Eastern Europe. Their ideological rivalry led to the Cold War, which dominated international relations for several decades. This competition shaped global politics, economics, and military strategies well into the late 20th century.
