    True, but it’s still better than the US ever was. It seems the current empire skipped the entire ‘play nice’ part and went straight to bullying everybody. We’ll see what the next one does.

    The military is only strong on paper. Half of it is spread out all over the world. Realistically, it would take weeks if not months to mobilize it all in case of a major conflict.

    Technology is one of the best, but even here China is taking more and more Ws. It’s already moving towards mass producing 6th gen stealth fighters, while the United States’ first prototype is scheduled for 2030. Mass production realistically never, because the country won’t last till then.
