Military prospects are even worse. China does not have cutting edge weapons technology, and that is not likely to change in the forseeable future.
You are right. And the thing No1: they will never be a melting-pot nation like USA is today and the Roman empire was in the past.

Willing obedience always beats forced obedience!
