If the government just prints more money, the money we already have becomes worth less. It doesn't create more things to buy, like houses or food. It just means there are more dollars chasing the same amount of stuff. This makes prices for everything go up very fast. This is called inflation. So your savings would be worth less and it gets harder to buy your everyday things. It doesn't make people richer, it actually makes things worse.

That's a tough one. It really depends on what you mean by "powerful." Is it having the most land, the most money, or the most control?

Many people say Louis XIV of France. He was called the Sun King and had total power in his country. France was very strong in Europe when he was king. But then you think about someone like Genghis Khan. He wasn't a king, more like an emperor, but he built the biggest land empire in history. His armies were almost unstoppable. I also read about Mansa Musa in Africa, who was so rich he might be the wealthiest person ever.

So, I don't think there is one single answer. It depends on what kind of power you think is most important.
