do you want me to post our conversation from the other topic?
it's useless to open a new topic for a subject wich was already going on in a other topic.

I don't think so, they attack us, they loose their main consumer and we've got many more to buy our products from. Not to mention that our Navy (by far the best Navy in the world, and the Navy is the most important aspect of a military for a country that has a coast) wouldn't let this happen. Whatever portion of the Chinese fleet they send at us would be sunk very quickly.

Well, a trade war is not out of the question, but I don't think that China will attack their ***** any time soon, that also generates cash for them, so...

I highly dout they will attack us since we owe them so much money... It would be a even worse investment if they render us completly unable to pay them back.

Most of the Chinese economy comes from America, so it would not benefit them in the slightest to do anything to impair the US. Besides that, China would find itself up against the US's allies as well and a war like that is not neccesary right now.

Only if we stop trading with them/stop borrowing and paying them.

Then it's all fair game.

I've said this many times but I'll say it again. China faces a bit of a bear trap with a war against America. The list of the 25 most powerful countries features USA at 1, China at 2, Russia at 3-ish, and then the rest are a bunch of capitalistic-democratic European nations that are part of NATO and NATO v2 otherwise known as the EU.

In all honesty, China is a COMMUNIST country. It would've been no different than if the USSR invaded, the most powerful countries on the world (save one) invade the one we exempted from just before.

Even Russia would probably get in on the war because they hate China more than anyone else! (Maoist Communism and Stalinist Communism did not mix.

So, no, I don't think China would blindly jump into a bear-trap war like that, but whatever. They're commies, and they'll have to be dealt with, one way or another...

We're all going to be over run. They'll take over. AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!

Ahem, anyways. China is big, but America could easily, how should I say this nicely... defend itself. China is getting rich off America, why attack your prime stakeholder? (yes, I dabble in the commercial world as well, despite my many other obligations)

Although, I have a belief that Chinese will soon be the main language, like english now.

china is just as much communist as they are kapitalist.
china isn't communism only anymore for a long time.

(Maoist Communism and Stalinist Communism did not mix.

because mao wasn't only communism. and stalin was 100% communism.
anyway both of them are for a while already and things have changed

There is always a chance that any country could attack the USA or England etc. Think of the causes of the first world war, they thought war was inevitable with the triple entente and the triple alliance balanced in numbers that it would only prevent the outbreak of war. But they were wrong, very wrong.

Well, I suppose they do seem to have been developing a rather large army (cannon fodder(?)).

Large armies don't win wars, skilled soldiers do. Also, it helps to have a bigger gun than the other guy. Usually. And as I said before, what would be the point of attacking your prime stakeholders and clients? That's bad business.

I highly doubt it. English is a major language not because England was ever some large, populous country, but because of imperialism, America, and military dominance that it actually showed in the past.


As for the attack on USA, I doubt it. China would never do it. The idea of global war is relatively weak. We can't stop trading with them. The thought of war between the two countries would be insane. For the most part, we'd do better off than they would, considering we can just import different stuff at higher prices. Even so, it won't happen.
