It's not that simple - the world is increasingly globalised, made up of large trading blocs, which have greater negotiating power over individual countries; the exceptions to this being the USA and China due to there large economic bases and populations.

If it's you against the world, bet on the world...
How come tiny Singapore is so successful, then? What about South Korea, Taiwan and Japan?

We are one of the world's largest economies and all you an see is the geographical area we occupy.

Britain is a force to be reckoned with and all you can see is doom and gloom.
