On Great Nation

Occupying billions of acres, possessing overwhelming military power and controlling the outer space, even all combined, are still not sufficient to be a true “Great Nation” which can lead the world respectably. Yet a country that only has land of hundred miles can already become a regional or world leader in “new culture” or “high-tech”. The author wishes all nations, no matter they are large or small in territory and population, if they so desire to be a “great nation” or a “world leader” in various regions, they should form their international policies based on humanity, refer to historical lessons, learn from classics, model against paradigm, and use the least time, energy and entropy, to achieve their ideals and goals through honorable just means.At times, in lacking of good working model and practical experience, countries that desire to be a respectable “Great Nation” [3] in various regions, should humbly and practically “touch the stone in water to cross river”. At the same time, the author sincerely advises all the “great powers” will take steps to reduce their destructive maneuverings gradually, and wisely increase more constructive plans and actions compassionately, for their own good and for world peace, harmony and happiness.
