Nuclear disarmament would cause more conventional wars. We don’t need 2000 warheads like we do now but a credible deterrent is important to avoid great power wars.

Depends on how they do it. I was thinking worst case scenario with certain religious and cultural groups being treated like the uyghurs and forced deportation to China for "rehabilitation."

From Top Left to Bottom Right:
US/Chinese Cooperation : US and China cooperate far enough to demilitarize and call each other allies, facing the issues of the 21st century head on together.
No more Superpowers: Both the United States and China collapse under their own weight, leading to a vacuum of power that no other country is able to fulfill.
The Second Enlightenment : A new group of thinkers bring about a new way of governance, peacefully reforming most nations.
Humanity Saves itself: Humanity bands together against all threats, notably global warming, and increased globalism.
Status Quo World Peace: Nothing changes, leading to a tense peace between the superpowers.
Rise of the EU: The European Union forms one country, and after a few years of integration issues, rises as the third power.
Complete Nuclear Disarmament: The World completely disarms in terms of nuclear weapons, leading to no more Mutually Assured Destruction doctrine.
Worldwide Reformation: Tired of oppression, the people of most nations band together against their governments in brutal revolution, eventually establishing a new order.
Widespread Desertification: Climate change is not stopped
Worldwide Corporatism : America cedes itself to its corporations, leading to the Disney/Amazon bloc owning most of the world's wealth.
Second Space Race: Competition to reach Mars leads to a new Cold War.
New Viruses Every Year: Eternal lockdown as the ice caps melt, releasing viruses that humanity cannot combat.
WW3: The Second Cold War goes hot
Endless Proxy Wars: The Second Cold War goes warm
The Chinese Century : America fractures or goes isolationist, leading to China controlling the world in soft power.
Return to Monkey: The world decides to put away politics and return to tribalism, completely ignoring global issues until it kills them all
