What are the main strengths and weaknesses of the following Evil Empires?

The Third Reich
The Soviet Union
Imperial Japan
Communist China
The "Decades of Darkness" USA
The Mongol Empire
The neo-Caliphate advocated by Hizb-ut-Tahrir

I'll start with the first two:

Third Reich - Strengths: Well industrialized, superb Prussian military system, willingness to take big risks
Third Reich - Weaknesses: Racist ideology (limits possibility to profit from foreign traitors and apologists), small land area with few natural resources, internal factionalism

Soviet Union - Strengths: Huge area, huge natural resources, attractive ideology, stable bureaucratic government
Soviet Union - Weaknesses: Devastated by WWII, inefficient command economy, risk-averse in warfare, limited access to the oceans (esp. in winter)
