> Anyway no one has ever invaded Russia and won, including Napoleon and Hitler. Russians are proud of that.
Pride in this myth is one of the reasons often given for why the New Chronology and the associated conspiracy theory of how all of what is held to be history prior to the middle ages is a fabrication (and much of that of the middle ages, too), since that allows the idea that the Mongol invasion never happened.
> Anyway if China does join in, their navy is comparable to the US's, and together with Russia's, it'd be bigger.
Numerically, maybe, but numerical comparisons aren't comparisons of capability. (Ditto with the comment on Russia’s Navy.)
