Depends, but potentially centuries to come.
China may become the world's largest economy within a decade, but the sheer scale of its domestic problems will ensure it will remain inward-looking for the foreseeable future. And who knows? Perhaps by the time it will have sorted itself out domestically, it may have become a mature parliamentary democracy -and a key ally of the United States.
