Why Doesn't China Speak English?

[BHAN85]

the fact of not to be a nation it's not a bad thing, in fact it's good thing for a empire/superpower who rule over different nations.

we will miss usa if someday a nation state become to superpower status.

Just keep in mind you aren't even in the top 10...so you haven't been missed by anybody in like 150 years. So rejoice in your fall into obscurity in Modern history.

They are not a nation, they are a bunch of nations living together in one state.

E pluribus unum.

The lesser evil for a superpower who rule over a lot of nations around the world.

Common people accepts better domination from own ethnicity people.
And rulers have more empathy towards own ethnicity people.

A bunch of hyberbole from old powers who feel the need to suddenly stand up and rationalize their definition of "what is what" when it comes to the definition of "nations" for some weird reason.

Listen youngins'...You don't know what a "nation" means...only I do...we had plagues...and war...and famine...and Renaissance...and Inquisitions...and religious fervor...and statues...and

Yes!!!! Secrets unlocked....so cool!

Calm down, like I said the lack of one national identity in USA is a good thing for the rest of the world under their domination, it makes softer their power execution to foreign nations.

Let's change the word nation for language.

Has USA own language? No, they haven't.

It doesnt exist such thing as American language, because it doesnt exist such thing as USA nation neither.

It exists Native American languages, because it exists Native American nations, the only real nations of American continent.

It's already too much pressure on Chinese students to learn English as compulsory in schools. English should be only optional for Chinese students. There are too many stores signs in English only.

So that is an interesting factoid in global commerce.

it's not only the signs but also the packaging. You buy some international brand and maybe the box it comes in is mostly in English.

Yeah, that's no good for those Chinese that don't speak or know English.

China has to get better at English so as to increase its soft power. Else it cannot compete with America.

How come that's relevant, there are so many fluent English speaking countries in Africa and South Asia, they are not developing better than non English speaking East Asian countries.
