The answer

Justice and the fulfillment of rights are the cause of the survival and superiority of nations, while injustice, the squandering of trusts, and the violation of rights are signs of ruin and defeat. If disbelieving nations possess the characteristics that lead to the establishment and rise of nations, then Allah rewards them according to the nature of their deeds. Similarly, Allah may grant victory to a disbelieving nation over a Muslim nation as a punishment for the latter's disobedience.
