What Makes A Superpower Super?

Posted by Vindico |

I have just seen an advert on the Guardian's Comment Is Free website asking the following questions...

What makes a superpower super?...Guns?...Money?...Oil?...Or a world-class healthcare system?

Yep, none of those. I wonder what their answer is?.....Oh wait.....I see what they've done!
