A state's potential power is based on the size of its population and the level of its wealth.

In an ideal world, where there are only good states, power would be largely irrelevant.

I believe that the existing power structures in Europe and Northeast Asia are not sustainable through 2020.

Simply put, the most powerful state is the one that prevails in a dispute.

States have two kinds of power: latent power and military power.

Bandwagoning is a strategy for the weak.

The German air offensives against British cities in World Wars I and II not only failed to coerce the United Kingdom to surrender, but Germany also lost both wars.
