That is your opinion of what makes a country great, and from the sound of it it doesn’t matter how they become the most influential or powerful. China is a communist cesspool of human rights atrocities. I dont care how fucking influential or powerful they are - they can never be great. I mean I guess Nazi Germany was in the conversation for a wee bit and could have been the greatest of all time if things went down a different path? Power and influence isn’t my idea of great. Apply that logic to men and women through history. Pontius Pilate crucified Jesus Christ. He obviously wielded more power doesn’t make him greater. Great people have been shunned, oppressed, and killed by powerful influential mother fuckers since the dawn of man.
