@justinianthegreat1444 China had a lot of civil wars and they were conquered. Rome and China are not the same misnomers. You could argue Rome never fell because it continued through Venice, Dutch, British and US empires. The Vatican is the center of Rome. The West is constantly split on whether the Vatican is the center of 'Rome'. Both China and Rome reinvented themselves numerous times.

 @freespeech8520 yes, the Mongols conquered China so the title is misleading. You also say that the Mongols became Chinese, also blatantly false. Are the Mongols Chinese? Careful there.

@freespeech8520 yes but Mongols are not Chinese. By your argument, Chinese are Mongols, Russians, Koreans, Japanese, Indians, Arabs, British, French, Vietnamese etc etc. This ideology will be the downfall of China in about a century. It's called hubris.

@freespeech8520 that ideology of ethno-cenyrism served China during difficult times, namely the cold war. China can now afford a new one. It is a more subtle form of aggression than other empirical models but aggressive none the less. The world needs to cooperate. China and Russia have a chance to show a new model. Otherwise, mother nature will correct it, as it did the US, the British, and every other empire before it. Interestingly each subsequent empire's life span in history has been shorter and shorter so for China's to last a century might be exaggerated. I respect China historically, culturally for their recent achievements, for the suffering they endured. Now it needs new ideologies in the new paradigm, which it is doing. It still needs some polishing. China needs friends. The US seem to be blind to that. I hope China doesn't make the same mistake because China as a superpower has the chance to be a balancing force.

@lyhthegreat yes, there are about 20 Chinese to every Manch person. Very tragic. Why are you speaking of Manchus when we were discussing Mongols? Was it supposed to be related? Very poor joke. Is it related? Mongolia doesn't 'sort of' exist, it very much does exist. Did the Chinese become British? French? Arab? Mongol? Chinese? Tibetan? Japanese? Korean? Yet? Should have respect for.... identity. Otherwise the world won't respect yours. It's a basic dignity which people feel.
