@ukmaxi : Youtube have been banned in China. This is definitive. Facebook is also banned. Yes, in the past version of globalisation, in order to operate and run in a country, then you need a physical office, and then set up an exact copy. But it seems to me that, SOME citizens.. have found their "own ways" around things. They do not represent a company or a large or registered company that they work for. But they are doing this themselves, with or without registration of a company. THIS is half the issue now... It is like, when the internet was never carved up... Social media has made things worst. (Basically, some people are doing illegal things.)

@AthenaCannon : Really ? I think the dispute is... if the mongolian empire was not included into "China".. nobody would bat an eyelid. But because the origin, does not include the Gengkis Khan invasion.. A lot of people do NOT accept that as China. Because some of those people are Siberians... And there are actual archaeological evidence to show that, there were people in the Tarim Basin... Who were not of the "Chinese gene"... This is why Taiwan drew the graph that it did, to include "china proper".... Which was based on Hans genes... and not mongolian or manchurian or Tibetan genes.... (And the sad thing is, how do you think North Korea now populate itself ?? Do you think that modern families now under a single dictactor... do not generation children, who would have sex with one another ??).... Do you know why China got hit by the "human rights" laws ?? Imagine some remote tribes or clans ...

@eminempreg : Imagine in Europe.. it is like, the Nazi Germany want part of the UK now. Why ? Cos some of those people were "descendents of Germans".... THIS is what is going on, and why they always dispute this way. Same with Tibet etc. They claim legitimacies, because a Hans "princess" married a Tibetan king. This is how they absorb land and "inherit" land and people. In their eyes. Which is an asbolutely feudal way to look at things.

@peterwong5993 : I live in the UK, have passport in the UK cos I was born here. But... I never knew the extensiveness of the chinese history. I mean... I knew about HK and how it got to where it is today, but I had no ideas of the complexities... This is why people still "fight", don't they ? This "pro-establishment" and "democracy" group. (Although if I look at them, I do not think that they really mean democracy...) Where are you based? Were you educated in the mainland ?? Learning about the connections.. and we are talking about... like.. before PRC.. before Qing dynasty... Way way way back... Ming dynasty was the last Hans Chinese dynasty. Qing dynasty was the "manchurian" dynasty.. and they tried to help their own people, but to kill off the Hans. You know that, right ? So when this "call" for "cultural revolution", it really was inside people, if you think about it. Trying to kill off the people.. or maybe even misled. Someone wrote on SCMP recently, about how the KMT and the Communists were really coordinated by the US. Cos either way, the outcome will be expected. And if you take a step back to look at the situation, which "race" survives today ?? No wonder cannablism existed in Guangxi... and some of these "ethnic tribes".... Everything now made sense. FYI... HK was also a farming rural village before.. and it was the British who did the "ethnic cleanse" first.. Direct the people's attention to something else, while trying to take control and power... How to kill off the boys, so there is no next in line any more. And forcing people to also eat their own children.. and force them to overwork, and cannot produce food etc... The storylines are told very differently, isn't it ? Now I get why my father was given away to another woman, who had money. In order to be safe, and til those period blew over... (i.e. Lied about who is his mother, in order to survive. Cos she did not have any children at the time.)

@peterwong5993 : Without that woman's kindness.. I would not be here today. Someone said something about China, which triggered my memory... So much horrors during those so called cultural revolution days. I was never taught this, when I was at school in the UK. I was briefly asked to write about the memorial of 4th June. But I had no ideas about what is what, and why is why.... Absolutely zero ideas.

@CubicApocalypse128 : In case you do not know, Japan... is kind of descendent of manchuria.... I mean... So Japan kind of jumped in to help, and fought the war. Japan had a lot of "help" to many Mongolian activities up North. I think I was also biased to know that the country was a single country. But this is the wrong narrative.. Cos foreign countries, and their materials..if you read it. It is wrong. It does not even translate ! I mean, why do you think that the Premier now... takes and sign deals with Russia ??? The question is what the voting parties in UN does...

@jokerye877 : Did you know that Sun Yat Sen... was... I think some Qing Dynasty officials tried to assasinate him many times. Did you know that? You have to remember one thing. "Qing dynasty" was a Manchu dynasty. It was not a Ming Dynasty. Ming dynasty was the last Han dynasty. Yuan dynasty was the Mongolian dynasty. When Yuan dynasty pushed those remaining Hans.. they fled downwards. And stayed there. When their lineage, or ruler died.. This is when they tried to invade the remaining lands. But you have to remember, those lands belong to a different race. This is why when ROC take control. It declared FIVE races. Including 5 regions. Some of the small pockets of people, refused to acknowledge this... This is why they never managed to control the country. And if you know now.. in this day and age, those areas have all but become a "autonomous region"... i.e. The regions who pushed back against the Qing dynasties. And funnily enough, so many of those areas are now declared as tourist spots... and more "Hans" chinese now move in, to boost GDPs.
