Great power

A great power is a sovereign state that is recognized as having the ability and expertise to exert its influence on a cubal scale. Great powers characteristically possess military and economic strength, as well as diplomatic and soft power influence, which may cause middle or small powers to consider the great power's opinions before taking actions of their own.

== Speculations ==
=== 7th Heaven ===
Some speculate the 7th heaven is a great power, as it effectively succeeded Orochi and beat them in a war, however, the 7th Heaven is not a member of the League of Nations and claims to be a nation-less territory ruled by Archangel Khamael. However, representatives of the 7th heaven do attend to LON meetings, which by some proves that the 7th Heaven is a country. If it is in fact a country, it is classified as a great power by traditional metrics.
=== Segregated States of Sigmarica ===
In early ShitCraft V, the Segregated States of Sigmarica was the fastest growing economy and urban developing country in ShitCraft. It also had a fast expanding military, with new equipment such as Netherite, making it a growing military power as well. These signs showed that the SSS could grow to become a great power, if not already was one.
=== Lizard Kingdom ===
Although not materially enriched, with constant need of foreign support for goods, especially from the LON and Nigeru, Lizard Kingdom has challenged many great powers, whose military and obtained resources are much larger.
