If only islands controlled count then there is no match for Indonesia and Philippines each one controls hundreds of them if not Thousands.

Britain is not a super power. Too small. Less than 250,000 square kilometers.

What about Canada, Australia or Brazil ?

I don't understand point of the thread. What do you want to say ?

Phillipines, Indonesia are not super powers. Too small. Canada and Australia both have a lot of territory but too little population to be super powers. Canada has 30 million people. Australia has 20 million people. Russia has triple digits people. Brazil is not a super power because cannot make its own military hardware and has no nukes.

Oversea territories are distant territories thousand miles away not just any island. Otherwise Greece would be world record holder.

Correct, but neither is a super power. Congo cannot make its own military hardware and France is under 700,000 square kilometers.

There is no such thing as Diayou ...its called Senkaku Island...comes under the administrative controlled of Japan


No one lives there. Any country can claim it.

彼一时此一时. The US cannot gain territory. It can gain population but its demographics is deteriorating with aging and increase of non Hispanic white. The US does not dare to fight any country.
