      How can China be of its current size without invading anyone? When it started, it was just a small patch in central Henan area.

        This pedantry is ridiculous, wrong, and annoying. The Han ethnic group that was in a relatively small patch of land ~4,000 years ago is hardly the same thing as the contemporary Westphalian sovereign state known as People’s Republic of China, which formed less than a hundred years ago and comprises many ethnicities.

      They would if they could. Imagine China having a powerful air force like the US have. They would dominate every country in the world just like the US is doing. The US puts almost all their money into high tech weaponry as well.

      The US is going after the middle east to get oil and to establish military bases for future domination. Has nothing to do with liberation or democracy.

        “imagine if China invaded the whole world. China doesn’t sound so good now, does it?”

        Brilliant

          Do you have any actual arguments? So far you are not really contributing to the discussion at all.

            Argument: your US chauvinism is unjustified and you should probably justify it. Otherwise, you’re wasting everyone’s time with an undeserved smug attitude

        Please, do tell. Current government. If you say Tibet I will die of laughter and then link you a very well-sourced and easy to read academic paper.
