Gem,
You doth guesth too much... Wow. I will see how k-man responds. A couple of brief comments.

1. Pakistan too unstable to rise to the superpower status? Who will rule such a country
2. Iran will end up attaining nukes in your scenario. What do US and ISrael do or is iran getting nukes contingent on a less bellicose to the west stance?
3. Russia gets the euros because they are too dependent on Russian oil and gas? Does russia end up as a Gaullist type democracy or something more fascist?
4. China and India both going down. Thats a stretch, no?

Iran representing Shia Islam and Pakistan representing Sunni will each acquire superpower military status.

It takes a superpower economy to support a superpower military. Iran and Pakistan could scarcely do it even if their economies functioned well, which they don't.
