Sorry to burst your bubble on this, but China has the world's fourth largest economy (measured by GDP); U.S., Japan, and Germany are the top three (in that order). #5 is UK.
Also, you say Russia relies on aid from the west and has no clout, then say China, US, UK, & France have veto power in the UN (which they do) to prove your point that China has a lot more clout than Russia. Well, Russia has veto power as well; they are the fifth country you didn't mention, so I don't even know why you mentioned it at all. And the part about China going to exceed the US as the worlds superpower made me laugh too. And the part about their army, yea, their army might be massive, but the US's is MUCH more advanced (but what it comes down to in the end is that the U.S. and China both have nuclear ICBM's so it really doesn't matter whose army is bigger or more advanced cuz the whole world would be fucked if they went to war against one another regardless - it's a lose-lose).
I'm sorry, but that was just rediculous to post that.

chilledandy said:Russia have very little clout with regards to anything as their economy is tiny. They rely on aid from the West so have to do as they are requested but China has just as much power as the US. They are one of five Countries including the US, UK and France that have the power of VETO on the UN Security Council, they have the largest economy in the world, have nuclear capabilities, and will soon exceede the US as the worlds super power. Their Army is massive by comparison to the US.
