They most certainly did belong to the "hyperpower" of its time.

Zhu Yuanzhang not only match but took China from the Mongols.  The so-
called "Great Khan" of China fled upon hearing the coming of the
rebels.

We're talking about great leaders with strong will, and you nit-pick
underlings that did the actual works with muscles and hands.  What a
shame!!!

As I have said before, Albert Fung.  America didn't come with
skyscrapers, automobiles, freeways and airlines.  People built it over
time with hands and muscles, sweats, hard****p and death.  It takes
great leaders over time to make a desirable country to live.  The U.S.
did it, so can India.  China is in the process of doing it unless the
U.S. finds a way to "create chaos and dissension" for China like they
did in June 4, 1989.  Someday, who knows, there may be many "Einstein"
willing and eager to immigrate to China or to India for their "good
life" under the sun.
