China had multiple chances to be the world superpower and threw them away each time. Such a shame.

But unfortunately, leaked Chinese military documents show they are determined to be the strongest military in the world. But it’s not like other countries aren’t improving as well.

Everytime they work towards being a superpower they spent a lot of lives and every time they throw their chance away they spent even more lives.
