China doesn't claim moral superiority when it doesn't have it, it just focuses on business. The USA claims moral superiority when it doesn't have it.
China has not invaded a single country outside of its immediate vicinity for the last 1,000 years. In only 200 years of existence the USA has managed to outdo that record.
Therefore... the USA is the real imperialist nation.
Immediate vicinity or not, China has invaded in the past 1,000 years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_invasions_of_Vietnam
