British reduced India to one of the poorest countries: Shashi Tharoor

[nautilaceae]

8 nation alliance colonization of China led to modern Chinese state creation, if not it would have been a vassal of the Qing empire just like Mongolia FACT

Modern Taiwan is a legacy of Japanese colonial rule. FACT

Hong Kong a legacy of British Colonial rule FACT.
This is why you are referred to a "Chinese colonialist" and asked get out

Why are you distorting facts? 8 Nation alliance were formed to crush anti-foreigner rebellion, although they also looted the city. Chinese emperor ceded coastal ports to them, but China remained a sovereign country.

Except Former Ottoman regions like Syria etc became nation states

In Chinese case they got united with Taiwan and Hong Kong being exceptions

and Qing empire was Manchu not Han

Like Armenians got liberated from Ottomans, 8 nation alliance ensured Han Chinese were liberated from Manchu boots

Manchu were former vassal of Ming dynasty who revolted with some faction of Chinese. Qing was an integration of Manchu and Han, every emperor claimed Chinese Mandate of Heaven to rule, continued the two millennium old Han Chinese imperial system, Confucianism, as well as Chinese language and culture.

Qing always referred itself as China and Chinese, as evidenced in several treaties.

Modern lands consisting of PRC was Qing empire colony prior to 8 nation alliance liberation

Lands consisting of modern China was always united by foreign colonizers like Qing and Yuan

Qing empire

Modern PRC

So history repeated itself with 8 nation alliance forming modern PRC.

Only south china is original china rest of them are occupied territory. This is proved by the fact that majority of the chinese population is in south china not elsewhere.

China is compose of many ethnic groups. The term Chinese is technically not correct as all ethnic groups are Chinese.

This thread is about how Britain created India, not about China.

This thread is not how Britain created India, rather how they exploited it's resources. Stop trolling.

@Syama Ayas you seemed to have a big chip over you shoulder in the way you distort facts. This is really low level trolling, excuse my words. China had been a single political entity for over 2200 years, most prominently marked by Han dynasty, which gave rise to the ethnic identity, Han Chinese. Other ethnic minority and vassals who later ascended the throne, continued the same Chinese Imperial system and culture. After the opium war, China was weak, ceded some port cities to European powers, but still remained sovereign. This is vastly different from India evolution to become a sovereign state.

P/S: You like to use ethnicity to define China. Do you realize the implication if the table is turned to India? "Indian" is not an ethnicity. India has 2000 over different ethnic groups, with Bengali ethnic the largest at 7%. What does that make India?

If Britain exploits India, it need to create India first.

A state is not defined by ethnicity alone. You realize the implication if the same argument is applied to India? "Indian" is not even an ethnicity. India has 2000 over different ethnic groups, largest being Bengali ethnic at 7%. What does that make India?

That India was already in existence for centuries. Why don't you just brush up the elementary details before jumping into threads like these with silly assumptions?

India only existed as a geographical expression for centuries, until British created its Indian colony. This colony later split into India and Pakistan as we known today. Just because the country of India choose the same name as the subcontinent does not mean Indian nation existed for centuries. In reality, India was created in 1947.

Most part of the subcontinent came under a single political regime from time to time, that was known to the outside world as India. The land records, revenue collection reports of Afghan and Mughal rulers suggest that they controlled and administered most part of this sub as a single political unit from much before the British came. I am truly amazed by the ignorance you Chinese are showing about India with dire arrogance on different threads. It's irritating to the least.

We are talking about the existence of an independent nation or not, as opposed to a geographic notion.

People disagreed with your assumptions, then you gave them negative as retaliation?

How native!

Stop acting like an innocent. I hardly give negative ratings to trolls like you. But
You are repeatedly abusing Indians on different threads for no reason. If you have nothing substantial to post here, simply buzz off.

As a so-called think tank, you should first behave yourself instead of abusing your power.
It makes such power laughable.
