Today's China is prosperous, but who can think of how many nightmares and pains the Chinese people experienced more than 100 years ago. The corrupt and incompetent Qing government has been pretending to be a heavenly kingdom for many years, not knowing that it has long lagged behind the world, and backwardness is the original sin of everything, in the face of the aggressiveness of the Western powers, the Qing government can only choose to compromise, constantly cut the land and pay compensation, causing immeasurable huge losses in the context of such an era. The history of the Eight-Power Alliance's invasion of China has always been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the Chinese people, and this history also reminds us at all times to remember history, and to be backward is to be beaten.
Today's China, the comprehensive national strength ranks in the world's top three, the economic strength is second only to the United States, and now China has been in a state of rapid development, so how are the eight countries that invaded China now? First look at the United States, the United States can be said to be the best developed country among these eight countries, in the first and second world war, the United States made a lot of war wealth, after the end of the war using its own original accumulation of rapid rise, according to the current strength of the United States, in the next 100 years, basically no country can surpass the United States.
At that time, Britain was the most powerful country in the world, but after the end of World War II, Britain lost its former glory, in fact, not only Britain, but all of Europe. Britain lost its own colonies after World War II, in order to reduce military spending has undergone many disarmaments, now the United Kingdom is no longer a world power, in recent times, the United Kingdom has been claiming that the European Union has dragged down the development of the United Kingdom, it seems that Brexit is imperative.
France is similar to Britain, but France has always wanted to connect the whole of Europe and create an armed force that belongs to the whole of Europe, and the algorithm countries have worked very hard but they cannot hide the fact that they have become the little brother of the United States.
Japan was also one of the eight countries of that year, after the end of World War II, Japan's development suffered a blow, with the support of the United States, Japan became the first developed country in Asia, in recent years, Japan delusionally relies on its own economic strength to stimulate the development of military power, many countries are worried about a thing, will history repeat itself? Germany was very low-key after the end of World War II, and its huge debts were not paid off until 2011.
Strictly speaking, Tsarist Russia became the Soviet Union as early as the end of World War I, and today's Russia has a military force, but its nutrition cannot keep up. Needless to say, although Italy has developed quite well, it has almost no sense of existence in the world, and the most tragic thing is the Austro-Hungarian Empire at that time, after the end of the First World War, the country became history, decomposed into Austria, Hungary and other small countries.
