River valleys concentrated production, produced surpluses, and could be ruled by a concentrated force because of it. Ranchers and farmers less so. Steppe and desert could not concentrate capital. Jungles could not make it happen because of predators and disease.

Russia can defeat any army in the world on land as long as they can do it quickly. But russia is a very poor country with a fairly small population, and vast territories.
China is and will always be easy to starve to death with nothing more than normal submarines. They know this. Which is why they have ‘stolen’ the south china sea: strategic necessity. China’s only options are economic and nuclear. She may eventually win dominance by economic means, since her market is a monopoly, while the western civilization’s market is fragmented into many pieces. However, if the western civilization’s market united into a monopoly china would return to practical weakness. Remember china remains, and will remain, for a very long time, a poor country per person. It is kind of hard to imagine india and america going to war, we have no reason to. It is more likely that india and china will go to war and india will depend on america.
The threat to america is the unification of germany, eastern europe, and russia, against the united states.
Frankly, as an american, I would prefer that outcome, and that we could have our own national government instead of running an empire at the expense of our peoples.

YOU ARE FREE TO DREAM
I want to repeat this quote from someone very bright who clearly understands the work:
—“You have completed the Enlightenment and taken Liberalism to its’ logical end, I simultaneously realised that you have stripped Liberalism of all its’ (faux-)sacredness around which we have all been culturally conditioned.”— Joel Davis
Once all our myths are dispersed to the wind, and we have but science laid out before us, what choice do we have to build a society upon?
You see?
We have been in a mental prison for a very long time.
Propertarianism sets us free to dream of what may yet come to be – that is not false.
I can propose the formal institutions (institutional science). I can build a constitution for any people of any order, no matter what they wish. But that is not to say what they should wish for.
BUT WHAT DREAMS MAY COME WHEN WE HAVE SHUFFLED OFF THIS MORTAL COIL??????
What dreams can we bring about once freed from the prison of abrahamism, of the enlightenment fallacies, of deceits?
THAT’S YOUR JOB.
DREAM.
