China doesn't occupy every nook and cranny of the oceans and waterways on the planet. Whoever made this chart is a fuckin moron. Humans cannot realistically engage in long term oceanic invasion and occupation.

@yogthos Your map is wrong. This comment from the linked thread probably sums it up best...

"loaExMachina
@sh.itjust.works

Image says “Has invaded since PRC was founded”, not “is occupying right now”, don’t try to change the terms of the debate when contradicted. You still could’ve made a point that China invaded much fewer countries than the US, but at least try to have an accurate map or the accurate words."

Ah. Xinjiang and Tibet should defintely be painted in red. Also Vietnam without a doubt. Korea is a matter of definition.

@yogthos Technically, they have also invaded themselves.

Brazil should be painted. The US is known to be sparked the 1964 military coup and, if I remember correctly, the Alcântara Launch Center is used by US. There are also military exercises involving US Army using Brazilian military bases (such as Formosa).
