For people who think China is a new growing power, think about it...China has ALWAYS been a super power, but a rather quiet one. They invented explosives but they used it for fire crackers while west used it for bullets and missiles. They had paper and written literature when Europeans were living on tree tops. They built the Great Wall and, the Grand Canal, palaces, and used fine china and wore silk when the Europeans lived on caves and wore animal hide.
Read history, the Chinese had the most powerful navy of its time and they took the navy to neighboring countries to show them what they’’ve got so they wont mess with them, but never actually used the navy.
