When did the US become a world superpower?

The US was considered a superpower after World War II, when the European powers declined, partly because of the loss of their colonies to independence movements. The war similarly sparked the advance of the Soviet Union to superpower status, and the Maoist takeover did the same for China. Whether the US currently shares superpower status with China is debatable, but China does not yet have an equal international presence. China (and most of Asia) has benefitted substantially from trade with the United States. The beginning of US worldwide influence dates from the Spanish American War, which brought it the Philippines and increased trade in the Pacific.

How did the us defeat the axis powers in World War 2?

In the World War 2 period there was no one power that could be called "the World Superpower" so the US did not defeat it. At present some call the US "the World Superpower." Whether that is a valid description or not is a matter of opinion, but even if true it is still not possible for the US to defeat itself so the US has never defeated "the World Superpower."


What other superpower did the us have a conflict with during the cold war?
