U.S. Is Purging Chinese Researchers From Top Institutions

Actually those are myths. Read up on Zheng He, the Chinese did use a compass to navigate the oceans. Same with gunpowder, the cannon and the first crude guns were invented in China.

What China lacked was not the resources and weapons but the ambition to conquer the rest of the world. They saw themselves smugly as the center of the world and were satisfied as long as other countries paid tribute.

By the time Zheng He sailed the Arabs and Europeans had centuries of navigational experience
Zheng He was one shot event. It was never repeated

I went last time to New York, Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and Miami. Can say Washington is the best place. Very clean, very safe, good public transport, good foods. The rest is a big disappointment. New York: terrible hotel, terrible food, everything expensive, scammers everywhere in Central Park, dirty Chinatown with bad food, driving car is a nightmare. Miami Beach looks better in brochures than in reality.
Philadelphia is a place when you arrive you want to go out.

NYC is a dump. It is still a more exciting city than Chicago but it's a dump. Hong Kong is similar to NYC in that regard.

Out of those cities you went to, I've been to NYC, Chicago, Washington DC, Miami. My favorite place was Miami, great weather, beautiful city, beautiful latin women with phat asses. Who can complain? Miami is the best.

Actually he had seven journeys. But Chinese sailors had been using the compass for centuries.
