Power games.
The big dogs?
The US - still the biggest
China - coming up fast
Russia - the Chrysler of this big three
We're currently in deep with these 3 for one reason or the other.
Something has been bugging me - where is the EU?

The US is equipped to run wars, whether on single or on different fronts, longer than anyone else. Huge navy, huge army, huge air force.
The US is always ahead of the other entities in terms of military technology.

22 EU members are in NATO.
"According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), France spent more than €44 billion ($59bn) on defence in 2010, placing it third in the world after the US and China, while the United Kingdom spent almost £38 billion ($58bn), the fourth largest. [124] Together, France and the United Kingdom account for 45 per cent of Europe's defence budget, 50 per cent of its military capacity and 70 per cent of all spending in military research and development. [125] Britain and France are also officially recognised nuclear weapon states and are the only two European nations to hold permanent seats on the United Nations Security Council. In 2000, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, and Germany accounted for 97% of the total military research budget of the then 15 EU member states" Wikipedia
