Not good, unless the less developed countries elect to go to war against the superior power, and the superior power, with (almost) universal support, fights back.

In addition, is this like a super power (elder brother) beating up a weaker power(younger sister)? And the weaker power is blameless? I don't think so.

<< How about a superpower forcing less developed countries to do what we want or else? >> You must mean the racist Arab nations that formed superpower alliances to destroy the small, peace loving nation of Israel. Or, perhaps Syria, that lay cultivated Lebanon to waste, or Iraq's invasion of Kuwait? Or, Serbia's invasion of Kosovo, and subsequent rape, murder and plunder of the peaceful families? Superpowers, or just ignorant bullies? America has made some mistakes, but, overall, America has shown it's magnificent history by rebuilding it's defeated enemies, such as Japan and Germany, after World War II. No country in history has done as much for world peace, as America. Your very freedom to debate on this Internet, if that is true, would never have been possible without America's sacrifices for world freedom.
