 Armchair Generalist: Whose Military Expansionism?
I suppose it's possible that the PRC could continue to attempt to suppress the Chinese people's freedom, but they will become increasingly isolated as more and more Chinese gain economic self-sufficiency and no longer have to rely on the state to provide them with their property.
Actually it was SecDef Don Rumsfeld commenting on Friday about China's "worrisome military expansion." But, you know, I was looking at this article and trying to understand why Rumsfeld would say these things without expecting people to laugh at him, because these statements are ridiculous.
But it would *not* be the same for those peoples whom PRC military expansion would bring under their sphere of influence.

The war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, concluded by the Dayton Agreement, also represents an attempt to ensure the penetration of Islamism in the Balkans and to link a major number of states and regions to the Moslem population and Islam as the religion of the majority.
Interestingly, the primary objective - creating a beachhead for the expansion of Islam - has been expanded to include the creation of the Tirana-Sarajevo axis.
Their efforts are designed to provide the solution to the "Kosovo Question" by involving international factors, to the point that internationalization of the problems is sought at any cost, including inciting and taking part in terrorist activities, devised to frighten the Serbian people and force it to emigrate and abandon the land to the secessionists.

This excluded all foreign nations and all colonial organizations from trading across the Atlantic: in order to secure new markets and new sources of raw materials, the system demanded a continual expansion through wars and invasions.

 Expansionism
This is because the southern concept of liberty and independence in a slave society rested on the figment that any southern white could become a slave owner, even though the realities of slavery in the South showed that only about 25% of whites owned more than 10 slaves, and half owned fewer than five.
So the Mexican War is important because the territories gained by the United States reopened the Pandora's box of slavery and the westward expansion.
So, even though the main battles over slavery and the West were fought in Congress over the number of free and slave states balancing out power between the sections, southern planters were just as worried about the balance of power in their own back yards.
