I would suggest 40-50 years is a rough timeline to establishing their primacy with another fifty years to fill in the details.

The world is becoming more free every year. Countries with dictators are falling. Yeah, there are some holdouts and some rise but for the most part it's getting better. Even the Middle East is getting better albeit slow. Women are allowed to vote this year in Saudi for the first time and they are talking about letting them drive. Dubai, Jordan etc are becoming very modern.

I can't stand China for what they do (unfair trade, spying etc) but even that country is going to be come more free as time marches on.

Are you a globalist?.... Do you believe in a countries sovereignty?....Are you an American or a transplant?

Ididn’t say that the Chinese grand strategic vision would be accomplished. The point is it is at the back of their government's actions and the march towards this endstate will either be the US withdrawing from most of the Pacific Ocean area or a collision between the US and certain allies and China a. The question is whether the collision will be fought out mostly in the westpac and Mongolia/Siberia or in the Central Pacific and the west coast of North America. This of course doesn't count EMP attacks or germ warfare or a host of other as yet unthought of nastiness from Peking.
