Re: super power

China is considered a third world country, and yet they are in the perfect position to control half the world's population.
China could make non-aggression pact with Russia (much like the one made in 1938 between Russia and Germany), then easily split Asia between them. China could deploy is military to the south and control Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Burma and Cambodia in a matter of months. These countries are influenced incredibly by China and there would be no shortage of spies or sabotage. As this is all occurring Russia would press from the North upon Mongolia and Kazakhstan.
The next and only territory with enough to stop China is obviously India. With their incredible numbers, (almost a million and a half) India could hold their own in a defensive war for a few years, but soon the superior technology of the Chinese would prevail, and Asia will be changed into two dominating powers.
And yet you ask where is the United States during this? We all know that China has the U.S. in its enormous economic pocket.
