China

Well actually the lease ran out on Hong Cong.

Everyone knew that was coming and had since the start. I am really surprised they let things slide for as long as they did.

The only thing that has kept Mainland China off Taiwan for 70 years is the U.S. Pacific fleet.

The only real hope we have is that India and China will slug it out in a nuclear/conventional conflict that pits the two largest population groups in the world against each other with the West and Russia staying out of the conflict.

After the economics of the world has been reshaped in the coming few months we will see if we can still afford the luxury of defending an Island we do not own half way around the world.
