What if countries who seem small in the scale of world events are actually major power players?

Most events of interest in history takes place behind closed doors in not so known companies with bribed politicians, diamond suitcases, fake smiles, spies and dissidents who decide to speak up. We rarely hear about it due to non disclosure agreements and the threat of getting fired, but the stories circulate within the companies, just like gossip about which boss banged the new recruit.

Internationalization makes the US-China trade war largely symbolic, because it takes many countries to produce anything useful. China did not suddenly get better at technology, they just became better at sourcing and rebranding technology from all over the world. A rogue office worker can decide the fate of the world with the press of a button at the right time. Leak source code or incriminating internal documents, erase a campaign site before election night...

The Japanese people are renowned for reverse engineering manufactured stuff, and making them even better than they originally were!!..A British car engine is where they started it off back in the 1960s
