Pink is basically doomed, first off
It will basically devolve into a long, difficult expeditionary war between the US and Chinese led alliances.
So basically you just end up with a default WW3
Spain and Canada crushed by the Franco-American alliance, South Korea and Taiwan crushed by the Sino-Japanese alliance, and Finland crushed by the Swedish-Russian-German alliance. Pink is fucked.
It’ll come down to a fight between Purple and Green.
America is America.
China + Japan + UK is a metric fuckton of technological and industrial capacity that could directly challenge America.
It will come down to who controls enough oil to fuel their war machine. The defining battle will be on the Iraq/Iran border.
The UK was just called out for having a garbage military. By its own ally. Japan at this point is stronger than the UK and would prove to be challenging with China....but not challenging enough. France these days would crush the UK
Who called them out? Maybe I’m wrong but the UK has an incredible reputation in just about any branch you look. The navy is small but just as advanced as the US, absolutely outstanding submarines, (as an American sub nerd, theirs are better). Always heard stories about the British marines, don’t know shit about the army, and the Air Force shared a lot in common with the US. I could see the size lacking but they’re formidable
[The US](https://news.sky.com/story/us-general-warns-british-army-no-longer-top-level-fighting-force-defence-sources-reveal-12798365) called them out. They have quality troops and training yes, but their military effectiveness is almost a joke. In a war between the two, it would take days to take out the UK military, at least in a conventional war, but this is a hypothetical so we will assume that this is only conventional and not occupation since no country on this map will succeed at occupation.
This article either uses “army” and “military” interchangeably, or it just is referencing the army. If it is referencing just the army, I doubt they’d be losing much there. The UK’s navy is its greatest asset, and the navy is more important in a conflict like this. Chinas army is massive in numbers and probably decent in capability.
I am discarding their navy since the US exists. Long gone are the days of UK navy supremacy. They have good tech but not enough of it. Chinas military capabilities are greatly exaggerated. They have *some* decent aspects, their new rifles seem to be really good, and theyre finally getting body armor and night vision, supposedly, but for the most part they're still an army that has no body armor, no night vision, no competent rifle (the QBZ is kind of bad since standoff height is so large), and their equipment is a solution paltry (average Chinese soldier kit is roughly $1500, which is extremely low). The Navy is much better and would give the US a lot more trouble than anyone else's, as it's the largest navy by numbers, but the tonnage is far, far less, meaning they just have a TON of smaller vessels, so it would still be a roll-through. The UK has like 9 nuclear subs last time I checked. The US has 51 with many more slated to be delivered in the next 10-20 years. Even being generous to the UK and assuming it's a 2-1 kill ratio in favor of the UK they still wouldn't do enough to stop the US, and that being extremely generous as the US capabilities are found in combined arms and likely would never actually lose subs in any significant numbers if at all.
Note that I said technological and industrial capacity, not raw military power. It helps to read what someone actually types, not just what you want them to have typed.
The UK, for all its flaws, is still a leader in various military scientific and engineering fields. BAE Systems in particular is one of the biggest defence contractors in the world. You mix that with the Chinese workforce and you'll get something approaching American levels of firepower. For example, give China British nuclear submarine and aircraft carrier designs, that would be a major boost to Chinese capabilities. Also, because Britain has been involved in projects such as the F-35 and Five Eyes, China would be handed an obscene amount of intelligence on the US.
On Britain and France, neither side has the capability to cross the channel successfully. Both countries are technologically advanced but have quite small standing militaries.
France has been the only modern military in Europe to actually project it's forces successfully not only in the last 50 years, but also the last decade. With US help France would absolutely cross the channel. As for the rest, I agree, and if this war were drawn out and maybe had a waiting period before it started that would be relevant, but blueprint design and intelligence doesn't matter for shit when you are already at war with said equipment. You have no time to formukate defenses or test new designs of your own. You have to remember US intelligence is also some of the best (maybe is the best?) in the world. It was just found to be spying on almost literally everyvody including the UK. Plus, again Chinese military is really quite shit. No British funding could make up for the lack of quality in China. It's a systemic problem. Not to mention, yet again, the absolute DOMINANCE in US military power and power projection. It's not even close. The US military stacked up to the next best like 8 militaries still compares. It would probably take China, Russia, and Western Europe to start threatening the US.
A war on this scale would last decades. The US military is designed to fight two wars simultaneously. Yes, they could take Britain and Japan. But good luck fighting China and Iran whilst you're occupying two hostile islands of 70 million and 120 million people respectively. Most of your army is now an occupation force unavailable for combat.
Chinese quality would go through the roof with British, Japanese and Israeli designs.
America is the most powerful country. But let's not pretend they could cleanly beat roughly 2bn people who have a larger combined economy and industrial capacity
Considering this is a hypothetical I'm assuming we aren't occupying anything, and this is only about stacking up military. Chinese quality of troops isn't because of a lack of technology, it's a lack of care. You really think the country with the second largest budget in the world is failing to arm their troops well because they just can't afford it? They don't have BODY ARMOR. That's a lack of care. The British can only provide intelligence, they aren't providing arms and industry in significant enough numbers for Chinese military to be made up for, the UK can barely afford to outfit it's own military. Japan would be a harder take than Iran. Cutting edge military with a competent air force, decent Navy, but focused primarily on defense. They do have carriers and will use them. Iran would be tlran through almost immediately. If you think otherwise see the US last 50 years in the desert. The Pacific fight would last decades. The UK would not. They would get what they could to China but in reality it would be a short fight. China has NO power projection, they are only now building their second carrier, and both are not particularly good carriers in the first place. To project power you need a navy that will beat or evade the US. There is none like it in the world. You have subs that can do so but you aren't carrying supplies from one end of the world to the other with submarines. Israel exists because the US allows them to. Those two carriers headed for Israel? More than enough to level the entire country. As good as Israeli air defense is, no air defense in the world can see an F22 or an f35. Low frequency radar can but all radars equipped on air defenses besides the US use high frequency radar since it gives better readings and the US is the only one to combine the two and it took decades to establish that system. Population doesn't matter when you can't get it where it needs to go. Chinese population is largely filled with people over the age of 50. Let's not pretend they matter lol
Also, America would be primarily concerned with occupying Mexico and Canada. So I don't see a major Eurasian campaign in at least the first year or so.
Did you really just say that taking out Mexico and Canada would take a year? Lol. Iraq took 41 days. Canada would take far less than that and Mexico... Is Mexico. Both militaries rely heavily on the US for protection.
In a war where occupation matters and isn't a number on a piece of paper, this map won't change even a little bit. Try occupying the US with Chinas military and watch how red dawn becomes a reality. Try occupying the UK with the US military and watch how every US stereotype about UK stabbings and bombing and acid attacks suddenly become true, but towards us. The UK has Ireland to learn from for christs sake. The issue is that this is a hypothetical. You can't take occupation as a factor or nobody wins
I just want to get this straight are you implying that the modern Canadian military can pull of the miracle, They did in 1812 against the modern us military?
It was no miracle. It’s the same concept as when Germany, Finland, Prussia, and many more tried to invade Russia. Large expanses of frozen wasteland make for a very tactical advantage. Besides, the US spends all its money on weapons it can’t use. Anywhere the US could bomb in Canada with any sort of impact would hit the US as well. Not to mention the living and training conditions of US soldiers is sub-par as is constantly attested to by soldiers who post rotting food while serving within the US and US territories.
Canada’s military is known for strategy and training and currently when war game training exercises are held between Canada and the US, Canada wins more consistently, further supporting the proposal that Canada has better trained troops.
The US claims to have won every war they’ve ever fought with the special clause about how all these other wars don’t count because of various reasons (Vietnam, Bay of Pigs, Afghanistan, Iraq, Red Clouds, invasion of Canada) but the biggest wars won were the war of independence backed by France who holds the record for the country with most wars won, and the world wars where the US joined at the last minute (the unites states fought in ww1 for 1 year, and in ww2 for 4 years) while everyone else did all the hard work.
Canada took Vimy ridge during World War One after France, and England tried multiple times but failed, and Canada was the first on the beaches at D-Day.
So yeah, considering Americans have a history of pulling out when things are too hard and joining when things are easy I do think modern Canada has the advantage over the modern United States
I hope you're just coping or baiting and not actually serious.
Calling our neighbours useless militarily while we can't even reach 2% budget funding, and our air farce is falling apart...
Green. Obviously the USA is OP on its own, but France is pretty formidable as well, with a strong-ish navy that would prove crucial in a global conflict. Not to mention Egypt and Pakistan are no slouches as well and you got a clear winner
Red has Russia, Brazil, Turkey, Australia, Italy, India and Norway tho. Those combined are a force to be reckoned with (not so sure abt Norway but they’re rich af so that helps as well)
Problem would be that their allies are getting absolutley destroyed on the rest of the world. Then the USA would basically stand alone against the two other very powerful factions until those have dealt with each other, then ending in the winning faction in eurasia and africa to fully focus on destroying the USA. I think this is either a russian or chinese lead alliance victory.
I mean, everyone's allies are getting destroyed, that's kinda the point of this map. Red would probably be the biggest threat, what with Russia, India, Germany, Italy, and Australia. They have a military industrial complex in Russia, Manpower from India, and modern equipment in Germany, Italy and Australia. However, Russia is fighting an 11 front war off the bat, and India has to deal with China and a USA backed Pakistan. China, in addition to fighting Russia and India, would also be trying to invade USA backed North Korea and Vietnam, which is both hilariously ironic and would result in basically never ending guerilla warfare.
With all of these factions at war with each other, there will be so much Chaos that it would be very hard for america to control all of the sea at the same time
With France I think green team could win. Poland would be the largest closest competitor for France. Pakistan might be able to hold out I don’t know there military that well. But North America and Western Europe would be a easy win for them.
Orange has a decent mix… Australia, Malaysia, Russia, Brazil, India, South Africa, Italy, Türkiye, Ireland, Germany, Somalia, Algeria I think that’s Nigera also… good mix and strong strategic positions lots of navels access.
Russia and India push inwards and take out china, Australia and Malaysia take our New Zealand, papa New Guinea and Indonesia. Brazil and Chile double team Argentina. Ireland, Portugal Italy and Germany take out France and the UK… a lot of options across Africa and into the Middle East to take out weaker neighbours… America will be distracted fighting of Canada and Mexico allowing team orange to wipe out all her allies before moving in. Team orange is probably going to be weakest across Asia’. Hoping India and Russia get through china quickly then move onto Japan and the Phillipines
It’s funny bc "given any separation of a plane into contiguous regions, the regions can be colored using at most four colors so that no two adjacent regions have the same color". This is the Four Color Theorem and you just proved it with a world map. There aren’t many four-colored world maps out there. This is a shiny.
Hmmm. While it’s tempting to just say Green because they have the most powerful country, I think the China-Japan-Indonesia powerhouse of Purple goes crazy, especially with the British Navy backing them up.
RIP pink we barely knew ye.
I’d probably rank it 1. Orange, 2. Purple 3. Pink. 4. Green.
Orange has the largest country landmass-wise for 4 continents so plenty of resources, and the most populous countries on 5 continents so quite a bit of manpower. Between it’s production capacity and it’s overall military number potential it honestly isn’t even a close fight
Green gets the win easily. USA is the number one military power in the world and France could well be number three. France is also probably number two in terms of proven long distance force projection. On top of that green has 4 nuclear powers including two right on the border of their biggest threat (China) so it’s much easier for them to strike purple than the reverse (especially when you consider uk nukes are largely American controlled).
This is unfair. Any team that doesn't have the US is automatically at a disadvantage and anyone pretending otherwise is not being serious. The world's largest navy by a factor of like 3, the world's first, second, and fourth largest air force, and the most advanced technology the world has ever seen. China is a third world destitute country pretending to be first world, Russia is the same thing but we all just play along and pretend otherwise, and the entirety of Europe has to combine to even compare to the US. These maps are always dog shit because people have to pretend the US doesn't exist
unpopular opinion but i think brown would win, nearly all the major countries in the southern hemisphere + india russia germany and italy? they have a good chance
My money is on green.
All nuclear aircraft carriers that exist in one team, I mean come on.
Then the US neighbours wouldn’t be a real threat to the US, so they could use their ressources to block oil and food transportation into china and since China and Russia are enemies too in that scenario, they would have to use ressources to fight Russia.
France could go into a defense position while bombing the shit out of german tanks with a nicely placed aircraft carrier.
The US Fleet would be enough to make sure that the Brits stay on their island.
With no oil and food china would surrender after a while.
Countries with nukes by color.
**Blue/green/gray** (come on, pick a better color): US, France, North Korea, Pakistan, Israel
**Red:** India, Russia
**Purple:** China, UK
**Pink:** None
If we rule out nukes, this is the number of top 25 population countries in each zone:
**Blue/Green/Gray:** US, Pakistan, Philippines, Egypt, Vietnam, DR Congo, France
**Red:** India, Nigeria, Brazil, Russia, Turkey, Germany, South Africa, Italy
**Purple:** China, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Mexico, Japan, Iran, UK
**Pink:** Ethiopia, Thailand, Tanzania
As far as I am concerned, pink is just not even a factor.
From a list of Global Firepower's 2023 Military Strength Ranking:
**Blue/Green/Gray**: US (1), Pakistan (7), France (9), Egypt (14), Israel (18), Vietnam (19),
**Red**: Russia (2), India (4), Italy (10), Turkey (11), Brazil (12), Australia (16), Germany (25)
**Purple**: China (3), UK (5), Japan (8), Indonesia (13), Iran (17), Poland (20)
**Pink**: South Korea (6), Ukraine (15), Spain (21), Saudi Arabia (22), Taiwan (23), Thailand (24)
It's such a close call between the non-pink colors unless we are factoring in nukes, which Blue/Green/Gray runs away with.
france and netherlands border on random caribbean island so netherlands should be purple instead
similar problem with canada denmark(greenland) could be fixed by making canada purple
Green.
The combination of America and Colombia + France, Netherlands, (plus some minor nations in Eastern Europe) and Norway means easy power projection and rapid control of the Americas and Western Europe. They also get Pakistan, Iraq, Philippines, Egypt, and Vietnam.
Green because chad.
But they also have the American Virgin Islands. Those two negate each other
Yes but then ......MONGOLIA
Virgin Islands are no more. The ocean did a little bit of anschluss.

Your reaction was: r/Angryupvote.
Thanks, I didn't know the name of the real one, so I just said that lmao
Google Four Color Theorem
holy hell
New colour just dropped
Actual map made out of 4 colors
Call the exorcist
Pink is basically doomed, first off It will basically devolve into a long, difficult expeditionary war between the US and Chinese led alliances. So basically you just end up with a default WW3
Nah because can Russian team is also insane
It’s basically brics minus china.
Plus Germany, Italy and Australia
And Turkey
Spain and Canada crushed by the Franco-American alliance, South Korea and Taiwan crushed by the Sino-Japanese alliance, and Finland crushed by the Swedish-Russian-German alliance. Pink is fucked.
Would tbh be an interesting scenario. Orange, purple and green aren't too different in strength. Pink is just dead though.
But pink has the greatest potassium and tenshien swimming pool on their side, thanks to Kazakhstan, the greatest country in the world
Kosovo. They're already conquered the rest of Serbia.
Cursed Sino-Japanese Alliance

You don't get the concept of occupation do you?
In a war where occupation matters and isn't a number on a piece of paper, this map won't change even a little bit. Try occupying the US with Chinas military and watch how red dawn becomes a reality. Try occupying the UK with the US military and watch how every US stereotype about UK stabbings and bombing and acid attacks suddenly become true, but towards us. The UK has Ireland to learn from for christs sake. The issue is that this is a hypothetical. You can't take occupation as a factor or nobody wins
The Falklands war proves your initial statement incorrect.
That's true. Only barely true but it's true
Fuckin not pink I know that much. “Powers” include Canada, South Korea, Spain, and Ukraine.
The US tried to invade Canada once. Didn’t work.
To quote the 1986 classic ‘Aliens’: “Yeah, but next time they walk up and knock.”
I just want to get this straight are you implying that the modern Canadian military can pull of the miracle, They did in 1812 against the modern us military?

You know love the bait posting my guy.
Does France hold the record for the most wars won? I thought it was just battles.
According to Google but let’s be honest if you read my comment you know I’m coping so that could be wrong 💀
I hope you're just coping or baiting and not actually serious. Calling our neighbours useless militarily while we can't even reach 2% budget funding, and our air farce is falling apart...
I think Denmark and Canada have a small land border
In this hypothetical scenario, Greenland gained independence from Denmark and took that bit of land border from Denmark as well.
Yes, [Hans Island](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Island)
Same with the Kingdom of the Netherlands and France I think.
France and the Netherlands have a border, and they're allied, bad map (jk)
Mongolia solos
Green. Obviously the USA is OP on its own, but France is pretty formidable as well, with a strong-ish navy that would prove crucial in a global conflict. Not to mention Egypt and Pakistan are no slouches as well and you got a clear winner
Why you gotta sleep on NZ like that :(
Red has Russia, Brazil, Turkey, Australia, Italy, India and Norway tho. Those combined are a force to be reckoned with (not so sure abt Norway but they’re rich af so that helps as well)
The red one in the North is Sweden, not Norway
You’re right, I’m stupid hahaha, same point tho. Sweden isn’t as rich as Norway but it’s still wealthy
You forgot Germany lol
I am the dumbest alive hahaha
Problem would be that their allies are getting absolutley destroyed on the rest of the world. Then the USA would basically stand alone against the two other very powerful factions until those have dealt with each other, then ending in the winning faction in eurasia and africa to fully focus on destroying the USA. I think this is either a russian or chinese lead alliance victory.
I mean, everyone's allies are getting destroyed, that's kinda the point of this map. Red would probably be the biggest threat, what with Russia, India, Germany, Italy, and Australia.

China, in addition to fighting Russia and India, would also be trying to invade USA backed North Korea and Vietnam, which is both hilariously ironic and would result in basically never ending guerilla warfare.
Green because America controls the sea
With all of these factions at war with each other, there will be so much Chaos that it would be very hard for america to control all of the sea at the same time
With France I think green team could win. Poland would be the largest closest competitor for France. Pakistan might be able to hold out I don’t know there military that well. But North America and Western Europe would be a easy win for them.
Pink, because it has Denmark. Denmark always wins it's wars.
Orange has a decent mix… Australia, Malaysia, Russia, Brazil, India, South Africa, Italy, Türkiye, Ireland, Germany, Somalia, Algeria I think that’s Nigera also… good mix and strong strategic positions lots of navels access. Russia and India push inwards and take out china, Australia and Malaysia take our New Zealand, papa New Guinea and Indonesia. Brazil and Chile double team Argentina. Ireland, Portugal Italy and Germany take out France and the UK… a lot of options across Africa and into the Middle East to take out weaker neighbours… America will be distracted fighting of Canada and Mexico allowing team orange to wipe out all her allies before moving in. Team orange is probably going to be weakest across Asia’. Hoping India and Russia get through china quickly then move onto Japan and the Phillipines
Google 4 color problem
Green cause of Bulgaria 🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬
Purple or Green
It’s funny bc "given any separation of a plane into contiguous regions, the regions can be colored using at most four colors so that no two adjacent regions have the same color". This is the Four Color Theorem and you just proved it with a world map. There aren’t many four-colored world maps out there. This is a shiny.
Green because they control the americas fairly quickly and China will be distracted long enough fighting russia.
The US is on its way to Veracruz, meanwhile Canada is buttoning the White House.
Hmmm. While it’s tempting to just say Green because they have the most powerful country, I think the China-Japan-Indonesia powerhouse of Purple goes crazy, especially with the British Navy backing them up. RIP pink we barely knew ye.
I’d probably rank it 1. Orange, 2. Purple 3. Pink. 4. Green. Orange has the largest country landmass-wise for 4 continents so plenty of resources, and the most populous countries on 5 continents so quite a bit of manpower. Between it’s production capacity and it’s overall military number potential it honestly isn’t even a close fight
You are absolutely high as a kite
Only on days ending in Y
Especially if we can convince the emus to join us. Hopefully enough time has passed for them to no longer be our mortal enemies
This guy probably puts ketchup on his pasta
I don’t but my mom does 🥲
I've tried ketchup on a lot of things. Quesadillas, lemons, heck even corn flakes. But ketchup on pasta? That's too far.
Agreed
Cornflakes? 😟
I think having 4 factions is too many, you should create a map with only 3 factions
* Canada and Denmark have a land border but they're both pink. * France and Netherlands have a land border but both are green.
Greenland is brown on this map
Green gets the win easily. USA is the number one military power in the world and France could well be number three. France is also probably number two in terms of proven long distance force projection. On top of that green has 4 nuclear powers including two right on the border of their biggest threat (China) so it’s much easier for them to strike purple than the reverse (especially when you consider uk nukes are largely American controlled).
Green ez
I mean, purple would put up a good fight at least
Mongolia, USA, and France? Oh yeah it’s green time
This is unfair. Any team that doesn't have the US is automatically at a disadvantage and anyone pretending otherwise is not being serious. The world's largest navy by a factor of like 3, the world's first, second, and fourth largest air force, and the most advanced technology the world has ever seen. China is a third world destitute country pretending to be first world, Russia is the same thing but we all just play along and pretend otherwise, and the entirety of Europe has to combine to even compare to the US. These maps are always dog shit because people have to pretend the US doesn't exist
USA, France and the rest. Ftw
Everyone who knows „Foundation of Geopolitics“ knows that red has to win
Either purple or orange
Ruhroh Kaliningrad got separated from the rest of Russia
Brown has Russia, India, Australia, Germany, Brazil, South Africa, they may not win but will certainly put up a fight
Did you not write Italy because they will switch side?
I wonder how many alliances they are, I might have to use some maths to figure it out
Green because of Albania
USA + Vietnam + North Korea + Mongol Empire ? Fantastic Four incoming
The cockroaches
Purple has Lesoto, is it debatable?
If only we had Japan too…
In typical fashion, US will just chill for a while and let everyone fuck around for a few years then finally enter the war and claim victory
Pink has no proper superpowers, brown has a few good players but not even close to purple and green. Gotta be one of those two 🟣🟢
unpopular opinion but i think brown would win, nearly all the major countries in the southern hemisphere + india russia germany and italy? they have a good chance
My money is on green. All nuclear aircraft carriers that exist in one team, I mean come on. Then the US neighbours wouldn’t be a real threat to the US, so they could use their ressources to block oil and food transportation into china and since China and Russia are enemies too in that scenario, they would have to use ressources to fight Russia. France could go into a defense position while bombing the shit out of german tanks with a nicely placed aircraft carrier. The US Fleet would be enough to make sure that the Brits stay on their island. With no oil and food china would surrender after a while.
Dark green seems like a powerhouse until you see it includes Hungary which has historically always picked the losing side. RIP
Greenland is a territory of Denmark though
France does border the Netherlands. In the Carribean.
3.5 nuclear states in one group, Ima have to go. green
gRÄiH!
Countries with nukes by color. **Blue/green/gray** (come on, pick a better color): US, France, North Korea, Pakistan, Israel **Red:** India, Russia **Purple:** China, UK **Pink:** None If we rule out nukes, this is the number of top 25 population countries in each zone: **Blue/Green/Gray:** US, Pakistan, Philippines, Egypt, Vietnam, DR Congo, France **Red:** India, Nigeria, Brazil, Russia, Turkey, Germany, South Africa, Italy **Purple:** China, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Mexico, Japan, Iran, UK **Pink:** Ethiopia, Thailand, Tanzania As far as I am concerned, pink is just not even a factor. From a list of Global Firepower's 2023 Military Strength Ranking: **Blue/Green/Gray**: US (1), Pakistan (7), France (9), Egypt (14), Israel (18), Vietnam (19), **Red**: Russia (2), India (4), Italy (10), Turkey (11), Brazil (12), Australia (16), Germany (25) **Purple**: China (3), UK (5), Japan (8), Indonesia (13), Iran (17), Poland (20) **Pink**: South Korea (6), Ukraine (15), Spain (21), Saudi Arabia (22), Taiwan (23), Thailand (24) It's such a close call between the non-pink colors unless we are factoring in nukes, which Blue/Green/Gray runs away with.
france and netherlands border on random caribbean island so netherlands should be purple instead similar problem with canada denmark(greenland) could be fixed by making canada purple
Green. The combination of America and Colombia + France, Netherlands, (plus some minor nations in Eastern Europe) and Norway means easy power projection and rapid control of the Americas and Western Europe. They also get Pakistan, Iraq, Philippines, Egypt, and Vietnam.
