It was number one: but those days are long, long gone. The British still have some powers in the world, some influence, but it is a pale shadow of the days of Empire & sending gunboats hither & thither. Economically the British paid heavily for the two world wars. The idea of Britain & Superpower in the same sentence is not a 21st century concept. (& yes, I am British)

But in recent polls we have over taken USA on the economy front and USA call themselves 'the' superpower also we have an armed forces ranked 4th after China, USA and believe it or not France. (and I am also a British subject of her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II)
