Some BRICS countries have been working and preparing for their rise to power for almost forty years. They have matured their economic emergence policies and are textbook examples of completed economic emergence models. The red carpet is now being rolled out for each of these countries' Heads of State. August 24, 2023 in Johannesburg marks a turning point in the history of the BRICS. They have just accepted 06 other countries. It seems logical that the BRICS should now become BRICS+6 or COPPEE (Community of Pre-emerging and Emerging Countries), with Argentina, Ethiopia, Egypt, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates joining in January 2024. We could then reach BRICS+30 by 2050. BRICS+6 would thus represent almost 43% of the world's population, around 33% of the economy, and almost 30% of the world's territory. The face of today challenges the face of tomorrow, just as yesterday's face challenged today's face. We'll have to make do with these giants, or not. What about Africa? The only countries that stand out are Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Cameroon and the DRC.
