No it's still the USA because it's still a two party system.
China... a one party system likely won't be able to stay one party if their economic growth keeps increasing at the rates Manus talks about... because said economic growth eventually will have to spread out, and there is already growing disfavor with the party among those who are profiting.
Eventually there will be an opposition party that will force great change in the government reverting it to a real democracy, thereby changing the country. Just how the Peoples Republic of China is not recognized as the China that existed before the communists took over.
(See the UN where PRC inherted the rights to China, and where Russia inhereted the rights of the USSR.)
Not to mention numerous other problems they'd have to overcome even if they managed to stay one party... some of which jackson has listed.
