Yes, China grew from $14.7 trillion to $17.7 trillion in 2021, so they grew a whole india that year.
I trust imf, world bank and the un more than you.
That's the difference between Chinese and Indians. Chinese want to own a company, be the boss and make it successful. Indians want to be the slave, work for the best salary and become a puppet. That's why there are 135 Chinese companies vs 7 Indian companies in the fortune 500...
I'm still upset that China didn't win those 3 assured gold medals on weightlifting, table tennis and diving. I predict China will win 30 gold medals or more in this Olympics.
China is not doing too well. They should have won the men's team gymnastics, diving, weightlifting, and table tennis gold today. They'll probably finish 4th to 6th in the medal table.
A rover soft landing on Mars is way harder than making a simple light bulb. Only 2 countries have soft landed and there are numerous failures. This makes landing on the first attempt an astounding achievement.
After Edison patented the lightbulb, he sold the blueprints to the government as...
It's not $3 trillion. It's $2.59 trillion in 2020. It's not impressive when you have 1.38 billion people. GDP per capita is lower than poor African countries. The UK with 67 million people and a $2.79 trillion economy is impressive.
So what? China's Mars orbiter sent back high resolution photos of Mars. The NASA instrument on board the crashed junk probe discovered water on the moon not India.
China landed a rover on the moon in its first attempt.
Now, China surpass India by a mile with a rover on Mars.
Now, China is self sufficient and was the first Asian and second country to land a rover on Mars. Also, the first country to land a rover on Mars in first attempt. No one cares about India's cheap mars orbiter that needed NASA's help.
It's not about reaching Mars 7 years later. It's about "space capabilities." China caught up to India with the Mars orbiter, but in those 7 years India has made no progress with their Mars missions. Now, China is way further ahead of India with their Mars rover landing. Currently, India is...
Congratulations to the UAE, but i have to point out that there's nothing indigenous about this mission. The spacecraft/probe was developed by the USA, launched with a Japanese rocket, and the scientific instruments(camera and spectrometers) were developed by the USA. This was more of a bought...
Germany with a democratic government, strong economy and strong military has multiple times applied for unsc membership, but was always rejected. Germany has no strain ties with any permanent member and still couldn't get in. Russia may have vetoed, but the USA, France and the UK are...
