Geopolitics is the "analysis of the geographic influences on power relationships in international relations."[1]. This page is a quick reference to some of the major powers in the world, their major interests, and relations with each other. It is broken down into the Tensions in Asia and Europe, and Other Regions (broadly including any power not involved in the two major Cold Wars). If a single nation is significantly involved in multiple regions they may be listed in multiple sections.
