All looking interesting on the geopolitical front.

Russia flexing muscles in Eastern Europe and yesterday it effectively purchased Iceland. While controlling energy supplies to the Western Europe.

Broken down into tribal groups, Chinese is the populous tribe in Africa.

You have all the old big 'Red' countries slowly but surely buying up land and resources around the globe. China because it needs to secure the resources for its own future and Russia because it has huge petrodollar spending power.

Will be an extremely interesting 10 years politically as we sit back and see what America has left after this. And when we switch sides, do we back Russia or China? biggrin

Not sure I would back either, Russia suspended trading on it's stock market yesterday, not exactly a sign that things are going well over there either. And most Chinese money comes from exports, mainly to the States, where no one has any money to buy anything any more.

I'd back Russia as the language will be easier to learn and the women are (generally) fairly pretty.
I'd back China for the food alone.

I'm still backing the Yanks. They may have a foreign debt of $50,trillion-gazillion, of which most of it is owed to the Chinese/Arabs, but they have very wisely invested it in these
