Europe

Koreans and Chinks are much closer than Greeks and Swedes, yet they're still not united
Your move OP

Yeah no if anything China is the one that failed history.

China is a Civilization pretending to be a nation. Now it was once a very rich & mighty Civilization, though it butt-fucked its own culture and traditions with the Cultural Revolutions. The only real tradition that has stayed around and that continues to drive it forward is the Chinese burecracy's amazing ability to completely lie though its teeth and say everything is fine when the shit has hit the fan.

In all likelihood it will go through another warring states period sometime this century.

Why would Europe ever do that? Also China went through inconceivable death and cultural destruction in order to accomplish "unity". They really shouldn't be a model for anything.

Everytime we tried, Germans or their anglo offshoot ruined it all.

Because the Han managed to subjugate all the other minorities? One ethnic group in Europe doesn't really dominate another.

The people have been far from united.

...

Nobody believed in pan-Europeanism until recently, because it's fucking retarded. The closest you would have gotten is some "Holy" "Roman" clusterfuck ruled by Habsburgs and the pope spanning the entire continent.

Civil war is exception.

...

>death
China created a lot more lives than it destroyed. Part of it is due to its administration.
>cultural destruction
What are you tthinking of ?

> united thousands years ago
Chinese would've remembered neverending Civil War that lasted for over 2 decades.

Exception how? The nation isn't united in civil wars.

Europe also had been united not too long ago.

Or should I post Charlemagne?

Don't forget goy that we chinese invented everything and existed with all its territorial demands since 5,000 BC

Being united doesnt mean that you are sucessful.
Just look at russia.

> Russia
> isn't successful

Meh. Imagine Russia not being united before WWII.

>China unites early
>Europe remains divided
>Europe surges ahead technologically and socially to the point where Europe de facto conquers China and British steamboats patrol the Yangtze, passing by Chinese fishing junks that are exactly the same as the ones 500 years ago
>what did Europe do wrong

What is it about human nature that causes them to want to suck authoritarian dick?

It seems that every free country is constantly fighting the deep rooting human desire to not be free.

First world novograd, no one invades because they aren't a bolshevik horde on the cusp of global invasion

> no one invades because they aren't a bolshevik horde
Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, BelNiLux, France, English colonies, Denmark, Norway ... Did I miss any other bolshevik horde?

Current day russia is quiete depressing and performs much worse then they should if you think about their ressource wealth.
They need massive surveillance and brutality to supress all the seperatists.

Balkanized clusters of smaller states must not mean poverty and constant warfare, otherwise indochina and europe would never have performed as good as they did in history.

>human nature

> Current day russia
Is the antithesis of united. It's literally half of USSR (population-wise).

Missed the part where you denied holodmor and said hitler wanted to gas 60 million slavs. Its a fact contained in post USSR documents stalin was prepping for a 2nd european invasion, that's why all of eastern europe was axis aligned

Which brings us back to our original point where collaborated, over centralized shit holes are proven inferior states - debate over I won

>USSR
>united

Irredentism such as expanding into the balkans (which were never a part of russia before the USSR) wont unfuck the mafiastate that is russia, neither solve its broken society.
Suck it commiboo, belarus is smaller but in a much better condition.

>one king is authoritarianism
>a dozen kings is freedom

this is stupid

european feudalism underwent several revolutions that made it more freer and the different european nations influenced wach other a lot this regard.
After peasant revolts in france and other places, the holy roman empire for example installed courts for servs to sue their Lords in cases of excessive mistreadment which actually could lead to punishments of the Lords thus reducing revolts substantially.
Later on, french enlightenment values swept over to the HRE and they cooked up their own version of it.

Would france and the german countries be united all the time, there would have been less place for contrasting developements which led to wider pool of societal options to select viability from.

You act like they're united willingly

> balkans
> part of USSR

> belarus

Yes.

There is a reason they splitted of when they had the chance, the comments of the belorussians are worh more then your memearrows.

chinese are a breed of slaves that have more in common with ants than actual fully developed human beings
and that's why they're so coehesive and well-consolidated for so long

comparing china to europe is pathetic to say the minimum - one is a beehive, the other is a zoo.

russia has always been like this.
a place of dispair where you can lose all your hope and faith and that's why their people are so easily manipulated by the lowest kind of propaganda (e.g.: stalin is still revered as a hero for the huge majority of russians) and why there will never be any real uprising to make things better there

that may sound stupid but it has allot to do with looks, Chinese are a homogeneous ethnic group, its not a legend that they look the same, they come from a very narrow gene pool

humans are stupid and tribalistc, if you look different they'll assume that you're radically different and will subconsciously classify you as a threat.

racism, xenophobia, nationalism, ....etc, all come from that primitive instinct that has no place in civilization

> this awkward moment when you aren't certain how to explain to the user realities of the internet

It's true though.

The waves of revolution that freed Europe could never have happened under one unified authority.

>racism, xenophobia, nationalism, ....etc, all come from that primitive instinct that has no place in civilization
believe it or not, this is what keep civilization afloat.
we needed this kind of prejudice in order to be alive, because no defenseless nation lived to this day and even though we don't need it as much as before it's still something we can't erase from ourselves because it's part of our evolutionary path

that's why we're so much in something that we have little contribution to give like national sports, politics, etc
we love the us vs them thing and that's not a inherently bad thing as long it's dosaged properly and gets to be changed after the introdutory first sight reaction

>Europe is a zoo.
Most residents are from
Africa?

> dispair
Spellcheck, cyka blyad. Just turn it on.

> that may sound stupid but it has allot to do with looks, Chinese are a homogeneous ethnic group,
It is stupid. Chinese aren't homogeneous. And they look the same only to Europeans (or functionally illiterate Ukies).

Not only stalin, they have all kinds of extremism, communistic, feudalistic, theocratic, fascist as long as it promises grandeur in some way sometimes blending into bizarre combinations.

They got Turkic muslim areas in central russia and large communities in their big cities I bet they also convert slavs just as the orthodox do now that the government is pro religion.

China didn't exist yet.

You sure did prove his point.

>Civil war spanning centuries

Oh, I guess Europe is just in the period of civil war since the Rome fell. Don't worry lads, we'll be back in a bit.

Chinaproper has a large flat landmass in the north, with less access to coastline, and is geographically isolated by Tibet in the west and Great Wall in the north. The southern hills can also be the buffer zone against rarely unified SEAsians. Thus it's way easier to unite than Europe.

>Civil war spanning centuries
Yes.

Because those dynasties weren't ethnic groups wanting to be independent or something of each other, they were warring parties vying for control of the whole thing: the Mandate of Heaven to rule China as per their culture. Millions died during those periods.

Which is why Chinese History is divided into Ancient, Imperial, and Modern.
>Ancient - No China yet. The Soon To Be Chinks lived in separate states in what will be China Proper but with a common cultural trend similar to Indian peoples/Medieval Europe.
>Imperial -Qin conquers all of those states. Qin and Han dynasties create the idea of China. As in the land under one state and one emperor.
>Modern China- Post-Qing to today's China

And Europe =/= China. As for Europe,abandoned the Roman Empire Schtick during the Medieval Ages save for a couple of autists in Germany so its not quite the equivalent.

Only the Northern and Southern Dynasties spanned centuries due to the terrible level of infighting mixed with foreign Turkic invasions...and the same Turkic invaders infighting as well. The Three Memedoms lasted 60 years while the 5 Dynasties and 10 Kingdoms period was like a 50 year period. But user is right: these were periods of civil war where the rule of the country was up for grabs due to China's Free-For-All style justification for who gets the Mandate of Heaven.

No retard

Yellow nigga, read a history book. Torrent one outside of your country's border and try to ignore the Hong Kong protesting for their freedom.

You've never seen the Chinese attitude towards their minority have you?

Let me guess...meme Tibetans and Uyghurs who have rebel groups yes?
>China has 50something ethnic minorities.
>monitor two due to rebel group presence.
>muh oppression of all minorities.

Post Napoleonic France :^)

>Germanics

>Chinese attitude towards their minority have you?
Implying you can tell most minorities apart from Han without an ID card.

The minority situation in China is actually quite complex. It varies from "cute little minority that we in secret think are really stupid" (Qiang, Zhuang, etc.) to "who gives a shit" (Manchu, Korean) to "assimilate these bastards ASAP" (Uyghur, Tibet).

There's also a bit of resentment of Han Chinese towards minorities since there are affirmative action programs that give minorities an advantage for a highly competitive college admissions system.

The Chinese ones have fragmented and rejoined as much as Europeans. Europe as a collective civilisation has never truly collapsed. This idea that China is one continuous civilisation is bullshit only believed because of a western slant on history, with more focus on European history we see the more intricate specific details of various cultures and nations, while China, looking more foreign, appears on the surface to just be one homogeneous culture. In reality they have split and unified many times, and they share a cultural history, as do Europeans. There's a reason Americans, much to the annoyance of Europeans, clump every nation in Europe just as "Europe", clumping Brits and French together, or Germans and Italians, because from the outside, it can look like a singular culture. You could say the Chinese had the Han empire which was basically China. Yes but Europe had the Roman empire which was basically Europe, we had Charlemagne's empire, the father of Europe, we even recently had Napoleon almost unite Europe again.

>w-we weren't divided, i-it was just c-civil war

Back to eating dogs, Chen Di Wun

Those two minorities have held nearly 50% of China's landmass.

>Roman Empire
Thats all Europe has that is similar to China.

Then afterwards it was all "muh tribe/kingdom/duchy/march/city state" and insisting on the special freedoms of these groups and bawwing whenever someone tries to group the lot together in short lived empires.

The difference is that a population with the genetic diversity of Europe view themselves as a single ethnic group sharing common descent through mythical sage kings.

The historical definition of Han was limited to northern China.

Hmong Mien,Kra Dai,Austro Asiatic and maybe even Austronesian form the substratum of southern Sinitic languages.

Southern Sinitics don't view themselves as assimilated natives there's a reason why previous non Sinitic entities(Min,Wu,Yue) are all just toponyms.

Anyone with even a passing knowledge on less-modern Chinese history would know they divide pretty often. Chu-Han, Three-Kingdoms, those three kingdoms fragmenting like hell in some way or another, the Jin succession affair afterwards, and other such. Sorry, buddy.

>united thousands years ago
Yeah, the last warlord era ended 60 years ago but it is united for 1000 years for real xD

>all of eastern europe was axis
Except the parts of it Germans invaded together with Soviets or gave it to Stalin to take over as a sign of good will.

Not that Hitler needed an excuse to attack USSR other than that the resource transports stopped coming after "mere" 6 months of buying them on credit.

>Chinese are a homogeneous ethnic group, its not a legend that they look the same, they come from a very narrow gene pool
Wew
Han Chinese is a variety of different ethnic groups that have been blended together through intermarriage after forced resettlements whenever a smaller tribe/ethnic group got defeated and dispersed within the empire.

Tartars(who are more opposed to muslim immigration than ordinary orthodox muslims), pacified Checens and Dagestani(pacified mostly on basis on not wanting to live in Caliphate) and various Turkic people.

China would be the equivalent of the Roman empire fragmenting but reunifying multiple times.

If the Roman Empire was able to unify and expand then there's a possibility that Romance would be far more widespread than it is today.

Another factor is that natives and foreigners alike would have to be subsumed into the greater Roman identity that doesn't allow rival polities.(There's no equivalent of Sinitic speakers seceding from the dynasty,they would try to claim the mandate of heaven for themselves)

china has been more or less in civil war for practically it's whole existence. it's not an exception in any means.

>Seriously, why white people can't man up and get their shit together?

The funny thing is that the West dominates and the East doesn't because Europe had such a high level of internal competition. China is a victim of its own hegemony

So they didn't all believe in the divinity of the mandate of heaven, or at least obey the emperor?

>why white people can't man up and get their shit together?

They literally conquered more lands and territories tthan any other races.

Couldn't exactly hold onto them.

I always thought inland china was a shitfest of gullys and roads that are no good for transportation and that was why Napoleon went on about no land wars in asia?

JAPAN STRONG

Mainland China basically "united" the same way as Germany did, Military power. See example of Tibet and Xinjiang. Both are forced to be "united" by the PLA.

why are people still seriously replying to this race baiting thread?

Adolf and Bonaparte tried it, but eternal anglo fucked it up.

You know funnily enough, as an Asian from Asia i used to have problems telling Europeans apart. I had to remember people based on their hair and eye colour. The worst were blond girls because they all blended into each other.

look at the geography
china is all surrounded by geographical barriers and of the same general culture, europe is connected to tons of different regions and has been invaded countless times with people of different cultures settling in certain points of it.
