This is largely a matter of opinion as 'most powerful' is not easy to define. The following list is at least an approximation to a valid answer. People may argue over the relative status of these nations.

  1. The United States of America: The world's biggest economy and by far in terms of spending and power the worlds strongest army.
  2. Russian Federation: The second largest army. The largest European population, and largest world area, which gives it immense control over itself, and immense levels of independence . The size of Russia helps give it extra resources and abilities that make it such a big power.
  3. Peoples Republic of China: China has the largest standing army of any nation in the world, however the technology other nations bring to bear may occlude China's size.
  4. France: The fifth republic has UN security council membership, is a nuclear power and has alot of influence over Africa.
  5. The United Kingdom: UN security council status, nuclear weapons, and vast experience serving in nearly every nation (and certainly on ever continent) of the world.

In terms of nuclear weapons, Russia has the the largest stockpile, (more than all the other nation's nuclear weapons combined), with the US having the second largest arsenal, but the most technologically advanced (more bang for the buck).
