China's rise is creating a new arms race within east Asia. Countries like S. Korea and Japan are spending more money on defense in response to China's posturing. I think we live in very interesting times because we are beginning to a see shift where east Asia is becoming a hotbed for economic growth with China leading the way. And with these new developments we can expect to see relations between China and the American Empire deteriorate. There is no doubt that America is still the dominant military power and will remain so for some time. However, by 2035 it is projected that China's military spending will surpass the U.S. and may have the largest economy by 2020. The objective of every empire is self preservation and doubt two world superpowers can coexist peacefully.
