One word - Tawain
Will it ever eventually boil over militarily? No idea. But there's
a very real possibility of that happening at some point in the
future (if, for instance, the Taiwanese government declares that it
is completely and totally independent of the mainland), and the US
has promised to protect Taiwan from China should a war ever erupt
between the two.
Like I said, not convinced. Taiwan seems to be content with the
status quo, and just because the U.S. made that promise doesn't mean
we'll follow through on it (and if Taiwan tried that I'd bet money
the U.S. would step in, doing everything in its power to convince
them to change their mind).
