China

The Dragon in a Business Suit.

A nation with ancient roots, sky-high ambition, and the cold efficiency of a machine. China didn’t rise by accident — it played the long game while the West was bingeing on cheap dopamine. Its people? Disciplined, hardworking, generationally wise. But the Communist Party? Surveillance state, soul-crusher, and enemy of liberty.

It’s a nation where dirt-road smarts live in the people, but the boots on their necks are polished by total control.

Verdict: The people? Maybe.
The regime? Absolutely not SphstRDnck.
Control kills spirit.
