Believe it or not, I honestly thought the technologies I presented weren't that advanced. I swear I saw the bigger powers making use of powersuit, railguns and lasers regularly so figured it would be okay. I changed it to something more likely. The key to their military successes comes from overwhelming the enemy and superior tactics more than technological superiority.

Actually, they did get their assess kicked quite a bit by China even when Pepsy took the lead, I just didn't say how many casualties both sides took. Really for every chinese solder pepsy's armies killed, the PRC "peacekeepers" killed ten congolese soldiers. It's just that I figured China had a lot of other problems around the globe as well seeing how they couldn't keep hold of tibet so they probably became quite spread out. Not to mention their mission in africa really was evacuation, which they did successfully do in spite of all else. Although more recently, the I think the PRC has now been supplying weapons to people who oppose the empire of congo. The empire of congo is also not really recognized territory wise since they more or less just occupy the areas and kill the leaders they replace with whoever they want.

I'd say my "empire" has like, only a year or two left before it fractures to pieces. Sure they managed to win the initial fights and occupy the territories, but due to overtly reckless expansion and over focus on military the future is not nearly as bright as Pepsy keeps believing it is. What you see on the map looks intimidating, but i'd say despite "annexing" territories they're only really occupied at best with puppet regimes being established.

And before someone starts yapping about it, I reduced the territories Imperial Kongo holds to a size that I hope is more acceptable.
