China’s “String of Pearls” strategy, fact or fiction?
The international system during the past few decades has witnessed the steady rise of China as a new great power and game-changer. For over a century the United States has possessed the world's largest economy, but at present trajectories, China may replace it during the first half of the century and emerge as the leading economy of the world.

China’s territory size, population, Geography, vibrant economy, relative stability and growing military capabilities have all helped it to confidently elevate its international standing with improved geopolitical status enabling Beijing to establish itself as a decisive player in global affairs.
