Mystery Babylon the Great

Revelation 17-18 introduces us to a woman with something written on her forehead:

MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT
THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES
AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH

Who is this woman? Who does she represent? There are many clues to identify her. Many say that the woman represents the Catholic church. Others say she represents organized religion. Yet others, like me, believe that she represents the last world superpower that exists before the rise of the Antichrist and the One-World Government.

I believe the key to understanding her identity is found in Revelation 18:11 -- "The merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her because no one buys their cargoes any more..."

My question to you is: Who do you think will be the last world superpower before the rise of the One-World Government?
