In today's world, the situation is changing, and the Chinese dragon is proud of the whole world, including the West, America, East, Japan, South China Sea and North Korea. Looking around the world based on China, although the rise of China is shocking and it has become the second largest economy in the world, this second place has always been a symbol of danger and opportunity in the history of the world. So today, I will compare China's second place with the countries that ranked second in the world before, and at the same time, I will explain the root causes of the situation around China and lead you to have an insight into the current world pattern.
Historically, Portuguese Touya was the first hegemonic country born in the world. Because Bartolomeu Dias discovered the Cape of Good Hope in 1488, Portuguese Touya became a maritime power at that time. So at that time, Portuguese Touya accumulated great wealth due to its close economic exchanges with the East, but this was only temporary. The next 200 years of history belong to the great empire-Britain.
1688 Britain's "glorious revolution" established Britain's constitutional monarchy, Britain took the lead in completing the industrial revolution, and its national strength grew rapidly. From18th century to the beginning of 20th century, the territory of the British Empire spanned the whole world, and an empire never fell.
What is interesting is why Britain can continue to lead for 200 years. Some people say that it is because he is a maritime power, while others say that the country is rich and the people are strong. Some experts say that Britain plundered a lot of wealth by colonialism and sold the black-hearted money earned by blacks to support the British industrial machine. Coupled with the compulsory education system, there will inevitably be a scene of prosperity.
And I said: what they said is too one-sided. The reason why Britain has been ahead for such a long time lies not in how good it is, but in how it beat all its competitors so that no one could threaten him at that time. In a word, the success of Britain depends on the success of its strategy.
From18th century to the beginning of 20th century, France was the second largest country in the world after the British Empire. However, three major events decided that France would not threaten Britain. One was the Napoleonic War of 1799-18 15, the February Revolution of 1 814-1851,and the first one of1. That's right! This is an old British trick! And now the United States is using this old trick against us and its allies! ! ! !
In the middle of the Cold War, West Germany developed amazingly, surpassing Japan and the United States in one fell swoop and becoming the second largest economy in the world. At that time, West Germany's GDP accounted for 2.9% of the world, and the import and export scale accounted for 1.8! Unfortunately, West Germany has always been in the hands of the United States, and it will never surpass the United States, while Japan, America's most China friend, developed rapidly after the war, surpassing West Germany to become the second largest economy! However, a mutual cooperation and security treaty between Japan and the United States of America locked Japan in the cage of the United States forever! ! !
Think about the disputes between the South China Sea, Japan, North Korea, the Philippines and China. Who is indispensable? It's America!
Will China make the same mistake as the French?
No, never! In today's world, the perfection of social system and the restriction of international treaties lead to the diversification of the world. China took the lead in the financial crisis with the cold wind. The American people need us! ! This is the reality! If we compare 20 10 with the trend of Sino-US relations this year, we will find that the relationship between the two sides is becoming more and more complicated and closer.
What does this mean?
It is obvious to all that the national strength of the United States is weakening. The United States stirs up troubles around China and restricts China, which can only be ridiculed as a dog taking its last breath.
In the case of close cooperation, if the United States hurts bilateral relations, it will hurt both sides, but for the United States, which is at the center of the financial storm, the damage is at least more, leading to a faster decline in national strength.
However, the United States is not the only ally in the world as the main body of the world. Russia is a fierce polar bear that can never be ignored!
China, on the other hand, makes good use of it, and Sino-Russian relations are obvious to all. Needless to say here, under the cover of a good environment, there are contradictions and conflicts between China and Russia in the fundamental national defense strategy, which has definitely left huge variables for the future international situation!
With the rise of China's national strength and international status, I can foresee that those American allies will soon switch to the day of choosing a side station.
But we can't be optimistic, small countries have no diplomacy, and we can't forget the lessons that the Paris Summit of World War I told us!
We can neither overreact nor ignore diplomacy. Some netizens shouted for war. . . This is exactly what America wants. So treat everything calmly, but never hesitate to use force! This is what our PLA has been preparing! -win a local high-intensity war!
This paper analyzes that from Portugal to Britain, Britain was devastated in the Second World War. The United States kept its hegemony by copying Britain. It was purely by hand, so please get extra points! ! ! ! !
