China taking over the world without military actions.

[DrBeer]

Well I wouldn't want to delve into this the more but what I know is that we have three major country that is currently controlling the word power..
Which are;

USA
China
Russia

When talks about the US you talks about development and innovations, and same goes to the China, the have the economy power, and of course they are the most populated as we know and they also a business giant. Talking about the Russia? They are known for having good ammunition more than the rest countries, but currently the USA and China has also increased on their own terms which China could likely take place due to their trade power.

I agree about the US and China, with some clarifications! But how, in your opinion, does a terrorist country, a country that is a raw materials appendage of China, which cannot even show convincing victories (despite having the second largest army in the world,
 40% of all the world's natural resources, a powerful economy, unparalleled weapons, and other propaganda tricks), waging a terrorist war with all available means against Ukraine, which is many times smaller and weaker? It will be interesting to hear your arguments in favor of Russia as a significant global player. Preferably with figures and facts, okay?

[harapan]

Today is busy expanding more influence on the rest of the world. This is going to count moving forward.

I don't agree with what you stated. They are expanding their influence in our region through force by claiming a part of our sea territory where they are already an arbitrary case resulting in favor of our country, yet they keep harassing our fishermen with their superior warships and what about the Taiwan issue? They also harass this country by threatening to occupy it by force.

They are just looking at the right time to harm these two countries 

Philippines fishermen hurt, boat damaged by China in West Philippine Sea

Will China invade Taiwan?

Yeah they are gunning for Taiwan

The world now has 3 super villains.

USA
Russia
China

They will all be grabbing and annexing land and countries.

Times will be very hard the next 10 years for any smaller weaker country.

China is not gunning for Taiwan. I see it opposite. Taiwan has and will always be a part of China.

The meaning of the word Villain is the same as a bad guy and one who does the opposite of heros. If that is correct then, it fits into and onto the bullying smaller countries when they can be diplomatic about it,  steal oil, organise regime changes, fighting more wars than anybody, organising and funding Genocide yet chose to he blind about it. Many more to say and it fits into one name in the list above. Do I need to mention it. They have caused more unrest in the globe.

[Haunebu]

China is developing at a rapid rate for sure and are improving in many key areas, but them taking over the world without military actions is a stretch. No country in history has managed to take over the entire or majority of our planet without military action.

The only man(Alexander the Great) who managed to take over most of the world used his military forces to crush his enemies. Think op!

[free-bit.co.in]

Some European nations, like Germany and others, shouldn't be neglected. Trump might be neglecting the European Union, but this alliance also has much influence in the global economy and the military. Trump is currently restructuring the world. It seems he doesn't care about his close relationship with the EU. He is building an America that has no respect for international treaties. Greenland will be the litmus test of the power of the EU.

If we talk about major forces controlling global power, Europe is no longer worth mentioning. After decades of dependence and complacency under the umbrella provided by the US. They have even lost the ability to defend themselves, let alone compete for power in the world.
Look at their current situation: military dependence on the US, energy shortages, and backwardness in core technologies. They do not have any cards up their sleeve to sit at the same table with the US, China, and Russia

I wouldn't be surprised if the US abandoned or even traded Europe for the sake of containing the rise of China and Russia.

I'm going to keep this simple. - NO they don't. Haha. Russia couldn't even finish the war vs. Ukraine. How many years his that war been going on? Five years?

[Agbe]

China is using it technologies to conquer many countries. Mostly their products. Russia's interest is on the global oil trade, China's interest is on the production of goods like Auto Mobile, Mobile Phones and other digital gadgets. China products are more in the global market and they want the third world countries to patronizing them. With that they always visit countries to have deal with them to sell their goods in a peaceful manner. But America using military force to support Nations fight terrorism and negotiate to take Oil.

The largest importers/consumers of products manufactured in China is the United States, and the largest importer of Russian Oil to power the factories to make those products is China. Without the United States, China's domestic economy and the other countries that import Chinese goods/products can't support the costs of production, and therefore it can't support the large Oil importation from Russia.

[Alpha Marine]

They don't need to because the US is already doing it for them. All they need to do is paint the US as the bad guys (which is not really difficult to do) and present themselves as the saviour.
They are also very subtle in their actions, so people who don't look closely don't see what they do. They have military bases in Djibouti and are currently considering expanding. Also, making plans to take over Taiwan.
At present, China may not be invading countries or kidnapping presidents, but don't be deluded to think they make deals amicably like the average businessman. They're brutal.
Theyre carrying out illegal mining in different countries, suppressing the people of the areas through the leaders of that region and also funding different groups to keep up conflicts.

With that they always visit countries to have deal with them to sell their goods in a peaceful manner. But America using military force to support Nations fight terrorism and negotiate to take Oil.

"peaceful manner", he said
It's really funny that China have successfully made people see them as the saints.
Mind you, these guys were taking about 90% of Venezuela's oil to pay off a debt. The sooner you guys realise that there are no good guys in this game, the better.

I think China can not survive without US market in the meantime is not relevan. Undeniaby, US market play important role for China high technology manufacure but as we know China market now spread around the globe and as matter of fact China is still major trading partner almost all of the country in the world and demand growth from non US buyer is bigger and faster than US market.

China strategy through RCEP, ACFTA, BRI and building infrastructur and investation on maritim hub in asia africa, show that US is not their only target. BRI itself is brilliant strategy to expand China market and ensure stable demand for years ahead. Beside that around 1,4 billion population give strong domestic demand which shoring its jumbo manufacture and resistant to US demand fluctuation.

US and China is two biggest oil importer in the world, beside Rusia, China also import oil from another country, China is not stupid country which put their production continuity to one oil supplier. Talking about China and Rusia relation is easy to understand, they know the ins and outs of each other's operations, so they complement each other. Rusia need market, China happy with lowwe price and stable supply. Both have same purpose, minimize its dependence on western domination

[EarnOnVictor]

China is taking over the world stage without any military actions. All good students on  history will bear me witness that, power has always been taken over by force and military might in the past all global powers has been taken over by military actions.

China here, and China there...with all praises, and this makes me smile at times. China would have been worse if it had the US power at its disposal. Truly, this is a country that is building global presence and respect without a war (for now), and that is because they did not, and still do not have the resources and power to take that power you are talking about. It takes time. Mark my word: China will still fight major wars to dominate the world, but first, they need what it takes, as imperial rulership is in their DNA.

They need:
1. Economic power
2. Political power, and
3. Military power

Now, they are having all the 3 gradually. Haven't China started weaponizing the political and economy power? If you didn't know, go to African countries and Asia and see how many of them are indebted to China with insane loan conditions. They are first to act like a friend when the US talk, that's building trust, it's political. The rare earth in which China has controls over the major global flow, haven't they started weaponizing it? More are coming, it's not everything that has to be a military war, even though militarization would happen when China has what it takes.

China is taking over the world primarily because it has the largest reserves of rare
earth minerals, these are essential for almost everything in todays technological
world, computers, smartphones, microchips, weapons, cars....

https://investingnews.com/daily/resource-investing/critical-metals-investing/rare-earth-investing/rare-earth-reserves-country/

They also have been able to attract almost all top level industry to have their goods
manufactured in China and its almost like there is no other place which can compete
with that power.


Trump and every other leader knows this, he has tried to bring manufacturing back
to the US and is also the main reason behind his grab at Greenland - resources.

It is true that China possesses the world's largest reserves of rare earth but rare earth are not scarce and is found in every country. What set them apart is that they own the processing and refining line, they control over 90% of the global rare earth processing capacity. Most rare earth need to be sent to China for refining before they can be used

It could be said that rare earth are their trump card in the confrontation with American containment. But that is not all they have, we need to acknowledge that China is developing strongly and comprehensively in all areas. If the US does not find a way to curb their development, sooner or later the US will lose its position as the leading superpower.

Every action taken by the US from Venezuela and Iran to Greenland is aimed at containing China.

Apart from the possession of the above mentioned properties, they know how to offer what one don't have in exchange for dominance of all kinds. In our current generation the use of weapons is not all that is required to dominate but giving to someone what he needs at a particular time gives you access to what you want. In the case of china, they make themselves available to all nations blessed with mineral resources by investing there capital in exchange for little profit but dominance for example, in Nigeria over 20 percent of some factorys are built by the Chinese government with there personal capital all because they know Nigeria has what they want for the development of there nations. So they are doing it in other countries that allows them to come in and not only Nigeria.

As strange as it may sound, China has overheated its economy and made it critically dependent on EXPORTS. The Chinese economy is purely EXPORT-oriented! For several years now, China's economy has been feeling, to put it mildly, not very well, and the government is trying to keep it afloat. However, China's recent attempts to position itself as the second pole of a bipolar world and declare its geopolitical ambitions have led to China losing RICH markets such as the EU, the US, and other developed countries. The Chinese economy cannot survive on supplies from Asian, African, or South American countries alone. The reason is simple: state subsidies support manufacturers who are trying to capture large and highly profitable markets. For example, the EU car market. There are many consumers here who are willing to pay a lot of money (compared to mass buyers, for example, in Africa).
The result is the loss of a “rich market” = migration to poorer markets = a decrease in the cost of manufactured goods = a decrease in quality = a decrease in state subsidies and investments = the degradation of industrial production. Many people write and talk about this, although China publicly declares that “everything is fine.”

As for rare earth materials, there is no huge shortage; it's just that until recently, many countries simply did not develop their deposits because it was cheaper to get everything from China. But now the situation is changing. The world can survive without Chinese lithium, but how will China survive without Western investors and technology, and, most critically, without Western markets?

I do not know what the Chinese economy will be like in the coming year but there is one truth we have to acknowledge, whether we like it or not. It took them just three decades to rise to become the world's second largest economy, and they have maintained that position since 2010. They are the only country that can compete with the US at the moment.

Furthermore, the global economy is a tightly interconnected chain. This means that all countries are interdependent, no country can survive in isolation. China needs the US market, Europe, and other continents. Conversely, the Us and Europe also need China. Do not distort the truth by claiming that only the US and the West can control the world just because you hate China for supporting Russia.

Both the United States and China absolutely need each other, and this is because the United States' policy of abandoning domestic manufacturing to be the financial capital of the world. It definitely made them the best country to invest capital in, but it also made them dependent on China, India, and the other countries that could manufacture goods cheaper.

[Accardo]

Yes China is the second country after the USA to dominate the world through its innovations in various fields, however, this achievement cannot be separated from its outstanding human resource management, in every generation, China consistently produces the best talents. A country will thrive if its government is able to effectively manage, educate and empower its human capital, supported by clear policies, a long-term vision and a strong commitment to innovation and development.

China has no bright future in the financial market, the country is sure of how bad they'll perform in the coming decades for building wealth with already existing techonogies. With no super technological invention, Globalization won't do China any good, this important fresh advancement of idea mustnt be in the computer settings, whatever is new adds much value to the global market.

China's economy isn't what it shows, the system is bad for even the rich, most rich Chinese move their money out of the country. China won't try to come close at taking over the world with their top tech sameness initiative, this habit could crash their economy in the future.

There are no saint and no one is truly good in this world. The world we live in is run by humans, a highly intelligent species dominated by greed, selfishness and envy. A world where the strong bully the weak, history is always written by the victor.
China, US, or even Russia are essentially not much different. They all put their personal interest above the interests of the world However, a diverse and multipolar world, where power is dispersed, is far better than a unipolar or authoritarian world, where power is concentrated in the hand of a single superpower.

[Wind_FURY]

China is a great country with a lot of technology going on there and their economy is also growing rapidly but i don't see them taking over world power from US soon. They might become world power in the future but just as it took the Americans many things before they got recognized, same way it will take China a lot to achieve that. Mind you, world power cannot be achieved without a fight so China should prepare themselves for war if they want world power.

But how can the fight and actually win against the United States if their military has no experience in actual fighting. The U.S. military has been VERY busy for decades.

 

Although, China might win the "A.I. Race" simply because it could generate more electrical energy than the U.S., and to scale A.I. data centers WILL require A LOT of energy.

There is no need for it. China has nuclear weapons, just like Russia does. That may sound like a very big threat, because it is one, and that prevents attacking their soil.

Those who have Nuclear Weapons are those who will not think of using them UNLESS the other country that has Nuclear Weapons have it first.

If USA ever decides to go invade China, even if we assume that as a war that is possible (it is not) then we are going to see China simply use nuclear weapons, destroying the planet, instead of just losing, same reason why this Ukraine-Russian war is not over, you think USA couldn't send 50k+ active military with all the gadgets and be done with it already?

The U.S. will NEVER invade China just as China will NEVER invade Taiwan.

Although they could try like what Russia is doing for five years with Ukraine. But what actually will that do is hurt their own economies.

[silpersurfer]

In the 1980s and before, history recorded that China was one of the poorest countries, but now in just a few decades, China has become a country with a fairly strong economy and has become one of the strongest competitors of the US, having a major influence in almost every region. In fact, now many countries are economically dependent on China. Besides the diplomacy that they have built quite strongly, there is a misperception that "China rules the world without military action." And we can see this from what they did in the South China Sea, which is trying to intimidate countries in Southeast Asia through the military power they have. And if indeed China could completely rule the world without military action, perhaps they would not continue to strengthen their military power and even at this time China is the country with the third strongest military power in the world.
