Hyperpower

A hyperpower is a state that dominates all other states in every domain (i.e. military, culture, economy) and is considered to be a step higher than a superpower. The term often refers to the United States due to its status as the world's current sole superpower; however, its possible status above that remains a topic of debate. 
In recent times, the United States is no longer the only uncontested sole superpower dominating in every domain (i.e. military, culture, economy, technology, diplomatic) in every region of the world. According to the Asia Power Index 2020, the United States still takes the lead on the "military capacity", "cultural influence, resilience" and "defense networks," but falls behind China in four parameters of "economic resources", "future resources", "economic relationships" and "diplomatic influence" across eight measures. This index ranks power and influence only across Asia Pacific, and is therefore not applicable to the global definition of a hyperpower.
History.
The British journalist Peregrine Worsthorne coined the term in a "Sunday Telegraph" article published March 3, 1991. After the end of the Cold War with the Dissolution of the Soviet Union, some political commentators felt that a new term was needed to describe the United States' position ("Pax Americana") as the lone superpower. French foreign minister Hubert Védrine popularized the term in 1998, because from France's position, the United States looked like a hyperpower, although the validity of classifying the United States in this way was disputed.
The term has also been applied retroactively to dominant states of the past. In her book "Day of Empire", American professor Amy Chua suggests that the Achaemenid Empire, the Tang dynasty, the Roman Empire, the Mongol Empire, the Dutch Empire, and the British Empire were successful examples of historical hegemons; the Spanish Monarchy, Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, and Third Reich were counters; and she reflects on assertions that the United States is a modern hyperpower. In a historical context, it is usually understood to mean a power that greatly exceeds any others in its political environment along several axes; Rome did not dominate Persia, Ancient India or China, but did dominate the entire Mediterranean area militarily, culturally, and economically.
