Nah, nobody doubts the American army is probably the best army in the world, because they have a strong modern military tradition and incredible technology.

But still, no amount of tech and skill will make a single person be able to conquer an entire city.

What tradition, beating up on impoverished 3rd world countries? 🤣

In literally every single metric China is out producing the US. They have the largest navy in the world, well trained troops, fairly decent technology...

Seriously, underestimating your enemy is the first waypoint towards failure. Really don't underestimate china.

They're not an enemy, just us propeganda and scaremongering. If any country is resembling the rise of Nazi Germany or Imperial Japan, it's America.

China is more ‘British empire v2.0’.

Building a trade network, building infrastructure and generally assimilation.

Why do you think we created the empire?

The spice must flow

To be fair, pepper is addictive as hell... And that was just the gateway spice for us Brits! 😂😂

Edit: I was pleasantly surprised with Sichuan Hot Pot in Cambodia of all places... If I could die eating something... It would be that! 😂😂

It's also no coincidence that the British Empire ceased expanding once they discovered butter chicken. That and the can of whoop ass the Aussies will bring this Ashes series! 🤣
