Africa??? WTH?? Limited to just China against the countries of Africa..it would be a slaughter. However; like others have already pointed out, any conflict of this size would be a dynamic event with many other players world wide. Just like the last two WW's in the previous century. Who knows what the ultimate outcome would be...... Side: Piece of cake!
Limited to just China against the countries of Africa..it would be a slaughter. However; like others have already pointed out, any conflict of this size would be a dynamic event with many other players world wide. To attack a continent is suicidal. So many countries host colonies and have interests within different countries in Africa that China would be suppressed in the blink of an eye. The outcome would be simple, China would be regretting the attack. Side: No Way Jose!
First off africa is a continant. Second off china has the worlds leading military and has a population equal or greater than all of africa. Most african countries do not have armies and would run and flea from the invading chinese. China is a very advanced industrial country. I dislike china, but if the usa and europian countries didn't step in then africa would be as good as china's. Fortinatly they would. Side: Piece of cake!

Hypothetical, China could conquer Africa. Matter of fact, the United States could attempt to conquer the world. The United States defense is $800 billion dollars. The world defense budget is $1.8 trillion, which means that the US owns 48% of the world's military strength. However Practically, China would never attempt to conquer Africa because too many countries have interests in Africa. Ultimately, if the US tried, it would fail as did Rome attempted this very feat.

have we forgotten the wise war sage SUN TZU? money does not make might. we barely won the primary objective in Vietnam and Korea, Russia lost the war in Afghanistan and Germany the war against Russia in WW2, and the America colonist won the revolution against Britain (which was not a revolution but a war of independence) plus other engagements i could name. these nations all had the same thing in common, they were the weaker ones financially but yet won or almost did. remember that the will of a man can conquer numerous challenges. in conventional war, yes America would win defensively and maybe offensively ( i could mention countries who could defend against America), but occupation wise, and overall all obtainment of enemy nations would be to much to bare for us. the American public is weak, i can only point to two wars the majority of the public stayed supporting. Side: Africa due to outside support
China and India are ridiculous countries both, whose sudden emergence on the world scene is due to absolutely nothing but a giant population of starving people willing to do any ridiculous job for less than what it costs me to take a piss and flush a toilet. They are both shells of countries being exploited to starvation by a select few and their only weapon is this dying and apparently by their estimate expendable population. Why would any citizen willingly fight any war for a country that treats them like garbage? I'll take Iceland in a war over China. I don't care how many human shells you throw at someone, a person who has a reason to live will defeat a person who doesn't 99 times out of 100. Yeah, I'm saying Africa is better. South Africa is in Africa last time I checked. Side: No Way Jose!

The Soviet Union did it against the Germans and it worked great. Many Soviet soldiers hated thier own generals as much as the Germans. Side: Piece of cake!
and the glaring flaw in your argument is of course Many Soviet soldiers hated their own generals as much as the Germans. At any rate, the Russians weren't literally starving to death in nearly the numbers, and from what I've heard much of this apparent dislike Russians had for Russia was little more than Western propaganda - though I'm sure it did exist to some extent. Outside of that, Germany had a much smaller force, and they were spread too thin, and they still almost won but for Hitler's drug addiction and standing orders. Side: No Way Jose!
