Resources - give China economic potential
Huge land, population, army, roads and resources (concentrated in East)
Political Views - Strong, independant (didn't follow USSR's policies [relaxed])
Cultural Revolution, Personality cult for Mao, Little criticism
Allies with USA - good for trade and aid
Went against world opinion, Fought quite infrequently
BUT Little technology - focussed in East so no way to Europe - bad for trade
Few significant allies - Mao and Khrushchev didn't get along
Broke friendship treay in 1960 - concern over nuclear weapons
