America, Russia, China, and EU in Daniel 7

God showed Daniel four beasts in Daniel 7. These four beasts are four countries or empires who shall dominate the world prior to the second Advent.

Daniel 7:4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.

Eagle is the symbol for US. US also sprang from Britain. And lion is the symbol for Britain. US is the young lion, with eagle's wings her symbol, the first beast is US. On her wings lies her pride and power. God plucks her wings. Without eagle wings the lion shall lose her fierceness. This event shall take place in rapture. Rapture is also the first judgment on America from God. America shall lose her dominant position in world, becomes a lesser degree country.

5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.

The bear is Russia. Since Soviet Empire collapsed in 1990, this bear fell to the ground and lied on one side. But since Putin came to power in 2000, with the increased export of oil, natural gas and weaponry, this bear "raised up itself on one side", and Russia became a dominant player in the world. Concerning the three ribs between the teeth of it, I believe they are the three Baltic states. Russia shall invade these three Baltic states one day because of their Kaliningrad naval base. This naval base was cut off from Russia since Soviet empire collapsed. To have their land access to Kaliningrad, Russia needs to conquer the three Baltic states.

6 After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.

The leopard is China.Four heads are mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. Taiwan shall be united with China one day through peace, not by force. Leopard is known for it's speed and swiftness. With the fast speed China is building her economy and military, Leopard is the best symbol God uses to describe China.

7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. 8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.

This fourth beast is EU. Ten kings shall arise from it. After that there will be a little horn come up among them. The little horn is AC. This fourth beast looks dreadful and terrible to Daniel because under AC, they shall invade Israel ( Daniel's people ) during the second half of tribulation and cause a great calamity to the Jews.
