How will the future look in the future? 50-100 years? 500 years?
I mean, europe, especially north-europe are rich because of resources, low population and smart politics. America are rich because of companies and talents, but for some reason they keep getting more debt and war. North-east asia work really hard to reach achievements, which I have done in very short time after WW2. These asians do a lot of things right. China and India are growing quite much by GDP, but India lack many things yet.

Here's my theory:
The U.S. will continue to be the dominant superpower. The waves of immigration that are currently going on will begin to contribute to society much more within in the next 40-100 years. Companies will continue to flock to the U.S. so talents will also come with them, and our economy will continue to be by far the best in the world. The ""problem"" we have with war will only continue as long as there are companies that are openly hostile to the U.S. or her interests. This is something any superpower would do, and it's retarded to pretend it's something only the U.S. has done. People pretending that humanity has evolved above this are fucking retarded as well, since evolutionary evidence suggests the more advanced a species or civilization the more violent they may become.
Western Europe will likely begin to feel the true effects of immigration to their country within the next few years. With the result being they all become much more prosperous, due to the increase in workforce. However due to their lack of resources and landmass they will likely stagnate at some point.
Eastern European nations face a similar dilemma, however their growth will be from recovering from Communism finally. They will all become first world, and fairly prosperous but still be a step below their western counterparts.
Russia will likely develop technology to tap into the resources they have in Siberia. Once this occurs they will likely retake their seat as the Rival of the U.S., however this does not necessarily mean the Cold War will resume.
China will likely fracture eventually due to the massive amounts of corruption in their country, and the fact that their population continues to grow.
Japan will become more independent, as well as continue to grow.
South and North Korea will unite
Pakistan and India will rid themselves of nuclear weapons.

The Middle East will be about the same, with maybe some territorial exchanges. However the "third world" countries will be second world by today's standards but likely not up to par with anyone else.
Africa will continue it's developmental process and will likely become similar to the situation with the countries in the Middle East.
South American nations will likely become first world by today's standards however, still not up to standards set by Europe/USA.
Canada, Australia, New Zealand will all continue to grow.
Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, will likely continue to grow for the foreseeable future. But will hit a wall that is the limit of what communism can go to. Once they reach this they will likely become like modern Russia.
So basically the world will not be much different. Most countries will continue to grow. I believe that there will have to be a new class of country if this occurs. Countries like Germany, Canada, France, Japan, UK, and maybe 1 or 2 others will become known as semi-superpowers.
Whilst Russia is a global superpower. Yet the U.S. will still hold the distinction as by far the most powerful nation, not only of that time period, but all of history.
We will also likely be colonizing other planets in by 2500. Likely under the lead of the U.S.

Civil wars breakout in western countries over ideology. China and Russia will seek to prolong the war to gain an advantage over west through simply being able to function at the time. India will become mostly open defecation free, but will still get bullied for it. African countries become the new India/China. South American countries will remain mostly the same. Middle-east will still be unstable.
