30 Countries to Join BRICS: The End to Western Supremacy? [De-Dollarization]

The movement is accelerating, 30 more countries that want to join the BRICS alliance. Just a few month back, hardly anybody in the West even knew what BRICS is and now we are looking at this huge alliance. The list is not complete, I think Turkey and some other ones are missing. But so far they name Afghanistan, Algeria, Argentina, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Belarus, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Sudan, Syria, the United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, Uruguay, Venezuela, and Zimbabwe. Together these countries are comprised of about billion people. Now lets add up the population of the BRICS nations to that and we and up at 4.8 Billion people. That is more than half of the global population. The what we call western countries, comprised of the United States, Canada, the European Union, Australia and New Zealand only have a population of 914 million, so not even a billion. This means that the BRICS plus alliance countries will have roughly 5 times the population and this does not even include all countries that want to join BRICS. But where are we GDP wise?. For the Western countries combines we are at around 42.5 Trillion Dollars. So lets continue with the core BRICS nations. According to the latest GDP data this brings us to 21 Trillion Dollars. And if we add the new joiners of BRICS plus to this the total arrives at around 35 Trillion dollars, so pretty close. And yes we in the west might look down onto some of these countries like Afghanistan and Zimbabwe but the trend is clear, if united together these countries are a global power that should not be underestimated.
