Which village do you think makes out the best overall?
Konoha
Population: 5/5
Military: 3/5
Economy: 2/5
Kumo
Population: 3/5
Military: 4/5
Economy: 5/5
Kiri
Population: 2/5
Military: 3/5
Economy: 2/5
Iwa
Population: 4/5
Military: 4/5
Economy: 2/5
Suna
Population: 2/5
Military: 2/5
Economy: 2/5
Suna is of course is the poorest being in a desert, and this was the reason Rasa formed an alliance with Orochimaru. As far as power goes, none of the Kazekage have ever been truly exceptional. They're just kind of low Kage level or high jonin, but with the title of Kage. Other shinobi seem to average in terms of combat. Konoha's shinobi repelled Suna and Sound ninja during the invasion.
Kumo is definitely the most militant and aggressive. With Ohnoki confirming that the Raikage sanctions the theft and attempted theft of other villages jutsu and KKG. See the Kumo ninjas attempt to kidnap Kushina and Hinata for study of their abilities. Even without stolen jutsus, they have some of the strongest ninja.
Iwa has a strong military and power jutsus, but low economy. Ohnoki admitted that he hired Akatsuki to do missions for Iwa to help bring money into the village. As far as Kage rankings go, Ohnoki was pretty OP for an old man and Muu was killed in a duel against Gengetsu, the 2nd Mizukage.
Kiri is known for their brutality and ruthlessness in training and combat. Looking at the shinobi from their village you can see why. However, the Kiri village has a bias/mistrust of those with KKG. Haku's clan was wiped out for having Ice KKG, Kimimaro's clan was wiped out for their insurrection, and during the war Mist shonobi called KKG "curses".
Konoha seems to have the best balance of shinobi and economy and militant nature.
