In a multipolarity world, territory, population, and economic weight still shape global power. We explore why size matters in geopolitics — and what it reveals about the rise of the Global South.
This is a sharp and timely analysis — it really highlights how the traditional pillars of geopolitical power (territory, population, and economic weight) continue to define influence in an increasingly multipolar world. The Venn diagram is a great visual tool to frame this shift, especially showing how BRICS countries have moved from the periphery to the core of global power. Thanks for sharing this insightful piece!

I would like to see the EU there, in the center circle, as a BIG 6.
In fact, maybe a BIG 3….
But, I know, we need to act as such, united!
