At many points in history, the world has been much much more problem in the coming years is the global economy, especially that of the European Union. That and the fact that the global economy isn't doing very well overall; with growth having slowed in China (due to fall in exports to the EU) and India. There's a possibility that large Western economies like the US, UK, France etc may have severe debt troubles, but I'm 100% that there won't be a total collapse as some people predict.

Whether Pakistan will survive in its current form in the coming years is a matter of debate, what with the economic problems, the TTP, ethnic and sectarian violence etc etc.

Afghanistan too will most probably become involved in a civil-war post 2014.
