Let me tell you some of the uniquenesses of China.
1) China is unique because it holds to its own value and never submitted to foreign forces, while always tring to absorb worthy foreign values.
Lets forget about the heydays of China, but start with 17th century when British successfully bombed open the trade door to China. The people of China never stopped fighting for freedom, for holding their cultural values such as language and traditions. Foreign devils failed miserably in submitting the Chinese. On the other side of Himalaya, Bharat
adores, submits to, and adopts the British system, subjects themselves to British language, and wholeheartedly.
President Nixon thus lamented: No USA, nor Soviet can ever conquer China, but India is a totally different story.
2) Chinese culture is unique, as it never believes the land should be pure as an ignorant you have compared with Nazi Germany.
In stead, since the ancient time, it believes He should have the land who has the merits. The Chinese people have confidence in their culture. Confucius thus said Barbarians with emperors are no more worthy than Chinas without emperors. Note the plural format of China! As China then were Chinas: every slit countries/states were considered themselves China. With such a coherency and confidence, at all times, the culture boldly believes that emperors, kings, prime ministers and generals are never born by blood. Thus, hard-working and smart people are promoted; lazy and stupid guys are down to the drainage. All these help to sustain the culture. Even at the time that China was completely occupied by Barbarians (Yuan and Qing Dynasty, for instance), those Barbarians were eager to adopt the culture, and finally they became Chinese themselves.
On the other side of Himalaya, Hinduism Bharat believes in Caste systems that by birth people are either doomed or guaranteed, causing huge lose and damage in social intelligence, moral and resources. And therefore submitted to British for hundreds of years oppression. ( And funny enough, even today, so many Indians are still praising imperialistic Brits!
)
3) China is unique because the pictographic language system is unique. Chinese characters contain sophisticated information that can simultaneously stimulate vast areas of a brain that a) boosts your IQ; b) delivers more information at a shorter period of time. c) helps to excite new concept and ideas in the brain; d)
None of any other main languages possesses such a power. That's why in America, wise people are flocking into Chinese school, when idealogical barriers are casted away, as they considered this one of the worthiest investements today.
4) Chinese system is unique. Without saying it is good or bad, as long as it improves itself and has a unique value, that is promising one.
On the other side of Himalaya, there is nothing new but a copy of British trite stuff. Dont want to comment on it, but one word: boring
5)
I dont want to write a thesis here. Why dont you spare me, and study more by yourself.
