China often boasts of being a 5000 year old civilization, but what good has that ever done them...

years
lel

They're in the middle of severe desertification.

Where did they pull that 5000 number from anyway? To make themselves seem really ancient?

Even if you count the mythical Xia """dynasty""" that's still only the middle to late Bronze Age. Not even a patch on Egypt or the Near East's ass. Even the Minoans and Mycenaeans were thriving then.

>which was always a thing in China
Except when they were being forced to pay tribute to steppe nomads, which was on and off from like 200bc to 1300.

It was some bullshit made up by the Hans to make themselves look more legit.

>doesn't realize he didn't mean literally starve

keep saying this b4 they come and take gunpowder tax

>Where did they pull that 5000 number from anyway?
IIRC some ancient Chinese scholar from 2000 years ago said it was 3000 years old at the time, so naturally it is now 5000 years old if you take him at his word.

It's sad how China today is in exile

Here comes Chang and his 999,999,999+ friends

FREE TIBET!!!!

>fed itself completely (well, usually) for 5000 years

Because back then, 99% of Chinese were mud farming peasants who grew their own food.

Nowadays, most Chinese are urban factory drones and if Trump were to actually shut down imports into the U.S. (yeah, I know...) China would go into a tail-spin as their economy gets pulled out from under them.

>Even if you count the mythical Xia """dynasty""" that's still only the middle to late Bronze Age.

And I'd say it's no coincidence that the Shang dynasty, the earliest verified civilization in China, came about right when Indo-Europeans exploded onto the scene.

>population has not changed in 5000 years nor since the 1940s

...

tibet is a meme

t. 50c shill or whatever the fr*ck

>Always
Everytime they stretched their dicks too far a Steppe Niggers has enough of their shit and bitch slap them

Most collapses started from the inside out.

China is such an overrated piece of shit. Despite its billions of drones, it might as well never have existed and we would be no less advanced today.

WE

so would the us economy...

Rather the other way round. They had to live withz steppe niggers on their border -just liek eastern european countries-, but whenever these assholes got too much uppidity the Chinese mounted some largescale invasion to put them in their place

they could also nuke each other I wonder what would be worst

>China often boasts of being a 5000 year old civilization,

By the same "reasoning", Europe is an 8,000 year old civilization. Now what, gooks?

China has had repeated long periods of unity and a common cultural identity and written language. Europe hasn't been united since the fall of Rome.

>Europe hasn't been united since the fall of Rome
What is the European Union?

>within their own borders
Those borders are massive, and contained a pretty high proportion of the total global population.

They have almost always been a preeminent regional power, and are gearing up for a more global role now.

Sure, they couldn't compete with Western powers for 300 years (who could?), but they're working on remedying that.

A union that is about to lose its second largest contributor.

>perpetuating a bureaucracy whose only function was to keep itself in existence.
so.. just like every other state

>England being anything but a trade partner in the EU
nice meme

>implying China would be colonizing the planet without the help of US and Nixon since the 70s
Nixon literally created superpower China and the US continued to transfer the wealth and future of the west to China
would china be what it is today solely based on china's abilities and without western transfer of wealth and technology?

US is China's greatest ally. if it was not for the US, China would still be a country based on subsistence farming.
US literally created superpower China...
Nixon birthed superpower China and the US continued to transfer the wealth and future of the west to China
china would not be what it is today solely based on china's abilities and without western transfer of wealth and technology

China's rise was due to a transfer of wealth from the west.

>murica transfer of wealth/technology/industry to poor rural china
>murica create power strong china
>murica claim a strong china a problem
>murica plans on fighting strong china with totalitarian TTP eroding more citizen rights
>not creating a scapegoat to implement totalitarianism

the power brokers transferred:
-literally all the financial funds of US workers to China,
-transferred technology and jobs to China
-hyperinflated the housing so that only the Chinese (recipients of western funds) could afford the housing

the transfer of funds was done involuntarily without the consent of the owners of the funds
the power brokers took western funds sitting in banks and invested all of that in China.

all that wealth transfer was from your pockets. the private funds in bank accounts, the housing assets, the jobs, all transferred by corporate USA without your agreement...

It wasn't a wealth transfer. You were buying cheap manufactured products from China and the rest of the Asian Tiger economies. You didn't have to do it, you could have continued to buy American like you had for decades.

But we opened the doors for that wealth transfer to happen

there was no single male millionaire in the 80s in China

they were agrarian and rural society prior to Nixon's transfer of wealth of the west to China

>laws enacted to trade with communists
>transfer industry
>transfer technology
>transfer jobs
>transfer private bank funds in investment stocks thru financial institutions
>newly minted Chinese buy up Australia, Canada, Europe, America
>wasn't a wealth transfer

this is the reason why bank savings interest rates have remained low since the rise of China and the deflation of the US dollar

bank savings interests rates were historically high prior to wealth transfer to Asia

your wealth which translated these savings rates were used by your gov't, banks, corporations to transfer wealth to China

just the tip of the iceberg m8s

you didnt
your industrial dictators did
they sold your future and profited

No, you did it by choosing to buy the cheap shit from China instead of quality domestic products thus turning market forces against your own people.

>No, you did it by choosing
i am in new delhi, m8

the burgers did not have chinese products prior to the 90s (80s for taiwan), they did not chose to open trade with china, the leaders did. they had no choice especially when everything was transferred to china

you are historically illiterate and culturally ignorant,

an example is US bike industry that transferred to Taiwan and were then dominated by Taiwanese ie Schwinn Vs Giat

fuckin lurkmoar and educate yourself

this

the globalists are scapegoating Russia when they conspired with communist China and proven China ties

I suppose you're right, the UK leaving the EU really doesn't affect the standing of the European project in any way whatsoever.

What?

No. They are not.

Pretty confident Wu of Han cucked the fuck out of the steppeniggers

I tend to read "starve to death" as meaning starve to death.

It goes back to 2000bc based upon certain archaeological similarities. 3000bc, no evidence.

?

>hurdur we can nuke each other and die!

WE

>agricultural production efficiency is the same as it was in 2000bc

Multiple genocides of steppeniggers were committed by the han people

Find me some manchus,dzungars, or xiame today

The roman empire started in 23bc. Even if it somehow still exists, that's less than China

shit chart desu

The EU isn't a country, but China is, and has been reformed repeatedly for 5000 years.

You're a fucking idiot to not realise that.

A political union does not compare to an empire and state

America is the noblest expression of living for a human on this planet.

Europe only explored the world because they were trying to find trade routes to China that didn't run through Muslims.

Waaa...so important

now kys

is it really 5000 years old civilization, if they get conquered by mongols and then manchus?

now, Japan has a 2000 year old continuous history under a single dynasty. most of the oldest businesses in the world are in japan.

China is better compared to Europe as a whole than to any one European country.

>No. They are not.

Everyone who uses the idea that China is like a 5,000 year old civilisation as an argument for it being better than Europe seams to forget the fact that China has been repeatedly invaded and conquered many many times in its entirety. China has been through several ages, swapped dynasties a dozen times, and has been totally conquered by Central asians, mongols, manchus etc etc who were all outside of China at the time of invasion.
Also, China is neat, but doesn't hold a candle to the west when you think about the fact that countries like Britain have had a bigger impact on the modern world than all dynasties in china combined.
All china has done is simply continued to exist.

>and has been totally conquered by Central asians, mongols, manchus etc etc who were all outside of China
Just Mongols and Manchus. Everyone else only managed to conquer part of it during one of those periods of disunity.

>All china has done is simply continued to exist.
You could say this of the majority of non Western European civilizations. China did expand over time, though.

But Japan wasn't really a civilization until it copied Chinese culture

Checkmate :)

Japan copied and preserved the Tang dynasty culture which was the best Chinese culture. Everything after that in China was shit.

>Chinese

>Israel is a Borg cube

Now i see.

becuase a gigantic empire like that cannot hope to do anything but this, in this entire era where they stagnated.

You can't control that many people properly before modern science came in.

Just look at how utterly corrupt the Ottoman Empire was even though it was of similar size but had far less population

Off yourself faggot /pol/tard

And without the west there would be no Rotschilds and Rockefellers, just imagine what kind of world we would be living in today.

wow kid just go, did you read on the newspaper china was winning?

>China has been repeatedly invaded and conquered many many times in its entirety.

And europe has been conquered by the jews ever since the europeans adopted christianity.

List me some western countries without "hatespeech"/"diversity"/antisemitism" laws.
Tell me how many can you name, cuck?

Atleast China DID manage to kick out their invaders, when will you do the same? Or are you afraid of being called a racist anti semite?

t. has an orange oligarch zionist as a president

If a jew mentions the words "diversity" or antisemitism" your societies start falling like domino stones.

it's fake, like china is,

And where are Minoans and Egyptians now? China knows its not first, just the longest existing.
