A major topic has been the spectacular growth of China and India during the past few decades. For instance, between 2000 and 2022, India overcame the UK and France to rise eight spots to the fifth-largest economy.
By 2050, Asia will contribute considerably more to the global GDP, predicts Goldman Sachs. This is mainly due to Asia performing better than expected, but it’s also because the BRICS nations did poorly.

The international order will be significantly different in 2075, with Nigeria, Pakistan, and Egypt cracking the top 10.
Rapid population growth, which could provide a sizable work force across all three nations, is a key factor in these projections.
While this is happening, European economies will keep falling in the rankings. Germany, formerly the third-largest economy in the world, will rank ninth, just below Brazil.
The GDPs of China, India, and the U.S. are predicted to be comparable at this point, indicating that they have roughly equivalent levels of economic dominance.
As a result, how these countries decide to interact with one another is likely to have a significant impact on how the world looks.
