What superpowers have appeared in history, and why can t they all exist at the same time?

There have been two superpowers in history, the Soviet Union and the United States. They were two of the most powerful countries in the international community at the time. Because both countries wanted to suppress each other in order to make themselves dominant, which eventually ended in the collapse of the Soviet Union.

First, our Western Han Dynasty, which was also the era of the strongest military strength in the history of our country, second, the ancient Roman Empire, dominated one side, and third, the British Empire, due to the rise of the Industrial Revolution, could not exist at the same time because of the existence of mutual consumptive competition, or its own internal reasons slowly declined.

For example, the Tang Dynasty was very cautious in its development at that time, but if there was another country at the same time, then the two countries might compete with each other and there might be wars.

The three superpowers in history were: the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Soviet Union.

The term "superpower" was coined in the last century, and the United States is currently the only superpower in the world. What is a superpower? It is very powerful in politics, economy, military, industry, science and technology, culture, population and other aspects, and only the countries at the top of the world can be called "superpowers".

In the history of the world, three superpowers were born: the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Soviet Union. After World War II, the United States became the world's leader in military, science and technology, economy, and politics, until today. Since the reform and opening up, China has developed rapidly in all aspects, and has become the world's second largest economy, as if it has the potential to become a superpower.

As the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, Britain has unparalleled productivity, and the boom of replacing manual production with machinery immediately swept the whole of Britain and even the whole world. Soon, with a huge increase in productivity, Britain's economy grew at an unparalleled rate, and soon it was at the forefront of the world.

The Industrial Revolution made Britain quickly enter the era of industrialization, Britain has been like an eagle that has been high, overlooking those countries that are still farming and weaving small peasant economies, the gap between the two productivity is very different, and Britain has quickly achieved a very high position in the world with the development of the economy.

Because of the underdevelopment of transportation in ancient times, the time for state-to-state exchanges was too long, and even the Mongol Empire, which had the largest territory, only involved Asia and Europe. So the superpower was born in modern times.

A superpower is a country that seeks world hegemony by virtue of its military and economic strength, which is greater than that of other countries. The term first appeared in the West in 1923 and has been widely used internationally since the 70s of the 20th century. The characteristics of a superpower are that its economic and military strength far surpasses that of any other country, and it uses its powerful military and economic strength to carry out targeted aggression, interference, control, subversion, and plunder against other countries in order to seek world hegemony.

The world situation in 1945 was clear with the formation of three superpowers that were far more powerful than other countries:

The British Empire: The most dominant and populous empire in the history of the world, and was able to project its military power around the world, and also had considerable influence over other powers such as Canada and Australia through the Commonwealth, and shared global sea supremacy with the United States.

The United States: The fourth largest country in the world, the largest economic power in the world, and can project its military power in a considerable part of the world, has considerable influence on its allies in the world, and shares global sea supremacy with the British Empire.

The Soviet Union: The largest country in the world, with a military projection across the Eurasian continent and considerable influence in Eastern Europe and East Asia.

The term superpower refers to the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War, and later, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States became a superpower. So, there are not three superpowers as you are talking about.

Of course it is possible, and as it stands, the country most likely to become the next superpower.

First, although the per capita resources are not much, China's actual resources are considerable.

Second, China's economic development has improved rapidly in recent decades, ranking second in the world in terms of total volume.

Third, the continuous development of the economy has supported the progress of research and development in many fields, and the domestic industry has been continuously upgraded and its competitiveness has been further enhanced.

Fourth, China has a complete defense industry, which provides a solid guarantee for peace and stability.

One day, when China achieves all-round rise and rejuvenation in politics, economy, military, and scientific research, it will be upgraded to a superpower.

But the road ahead is difficult, and great wisdom and perseverance are needed.

Our grandparents and fathers also questioned this, and if corruption is not eliminated and the system is not changed, our next generation will also continue to question in this way. Perhaps China will become a superpower many years later, but then it has nothing to do with us.

China is in the initial stage of socialism and has been in it for a long time. I can't see it anyway.
