China does not invade countries the same way European and American countries do in the last few hundreds of years. Past that, I do not know enough about history.

I'm not sure how you can dispute this.

Chinese people do not yearn for war like Americans and Europeans do.

Taiwan is a disputed territory and the US has been provoking China intensely in the last few years. Obama administration got it right. Trump and Biden have not. If the US was in China's position, it would have authorized a Taiwan invasion decades ago.

The first instinct for Americans in any international conflict is how soon can we send a couple of fighter jets and blow some stuff up.

The first instinct for the Chinese is how can we hash this out without any physical violence. The second instinct is the same as the first. The 3rd instinct is the same as the first. And if you have to make it to the 4th instinct, then it's all out war. This mindset reflected in Chinese culture and Chinese Americans as well. Chinese people have a lot of patience when it comes to violence. But if you provoke them enough, they're willing to lose everything to make a point.

This is the reason why I believe China will be a better world police enforcer than America.
