All Nations Are Superpowers: Difference between revisions

** Wakanda, a tiny African nation long hidden from the world, has had the cure for cancer for centuries and possesses the world's major source of [[Unobtanium|Vibranium]]. Currently it is ruled by [[Emperor Scientist]] and all-round [[Badass]] King T'Challa, aka the [[Black Panther]], who serves on the world's premiere superhero team, and his [[Power of the Storm|weather manipulating]] Queen Storm of the [[X-Men]], and has favourable ties to the [[Fantastic Four]].

** The tiny East European country of Latveria goes even further- it is considered a superpower pretty much because of the fact it is ruled by [[Dr. Doom]], an even greater [[Emperor Scientist]] than T'Challa, as well as a [[Sorcerous Overlord]], which is so advanced that crime, poverty and disease have been totally eradicated and the country is policed by super-advanced robots of Doom's own design. It is so ridiculously advanced that VR simulations of a hypothetical war between Latveria and the United States- which bare in mind is even more advanced than its real-life counterpart thanks to a monopoly on superhumans amongst other things- has Lateria win ''every single time''. This might have something to do with the fact that Doom has succesfully conquered the world already. Thrice (at least). And he surrendered it out of ''boredom''.

** The tiny African island nation of Genosha ''used to'' be this, at least under [[Magneto]], due to it being an open haven for the [[X-Men|mutant species]], meaning the vast majority of its population was comprised of superhumans, a bit of [[Laser-Guided Karma]] given that Genosha was formerly home to the worlds largest market for [[Fantastic Racism|mutant slavery]], and bare in mind Magneto obtained the island because he managed to single-handidly take the entire planets magnetic field hostage and could have caused global catastrophe ''on his own''- the world ''offered it to him''. We say ''used to'' because another [[X-Men]] villain, Xavier's [[Ax Crazy]] [[Evil Twin]] Cassandra Nova, sent an army of Sentinel's to massacre 99.9% of the population, and it is currently an apocalyptic wasteland not really any good to anyone.

*** Magneto seems somewhat fond of this- he also created Avalon / Asteroid M, an [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|asteroid]] above Earth that also was offered as a haven for the mutant race, this time backed up by Magneto stealing a whole bunch of nuclear weapons in case the world objected. Once again, this project failed due to the actions of another evil mutant.
