Chinese were considered white until 18th century

Seriously compass and art of war? The Anglo Saxon and German races are the best at war. This is why they conquered 85% of the world whereas East Asians stayed where they're at. This is why NATO which is basically the white countries giving the middle finger to Arabs and East Asians saying we are the military might of the world. These white people made everything from cars to computers to planes to trains to products that remove surface stains. Literally the whole economy of Gulf Arabia is being ran by Anglo Saxon white people.

East Asians are God of war. Huns, Mongolians were nightmares of Europeans. The white military advantage is based on their science and technology. When East Asians grasped modern science, White found it was very hard to win a war with East Asian countries even though they still have more advanced weapons.

Research said people tend to have trouble in recognizing facial differences of other races. When I was a kid, I also thought westerners look same. Japanese are short in nature because they live in islands. Chinese are not short. Chinese were short because of lack of nutrition. Young generation are very tall.

Just curious, why you think living in islands will cause people body smaller?

For thousands of years we gave the west the compass, printing, gunpowder, art of war etc and up until recent times we werent given much in return.

Yeah because up until recently you were mostly poor peasants trudging in paddy fields behind oxen.

What could we give you? Clear glass for your siheyuan windows?

Thanks to western power's successful effort to weaken China during 17th to 19th century.

This is common phenomenon. Creatures living in islands tend to be short. The smallest elephant, smallest tiger are all living in Indonesian islands. Probably because islands lack resoures

But island is not necessarily lack of resort (food). Only for region which tend to have natural disaster like earthquake, strong wind etc that provide less food.

Indonesia is abundant with food, but our people is smaller than European.

It is related with a small island like Malta, and about the evolution that require million years of time.

Island like Borneo, Sumatra, Formosa, Java are very big islands with a lot of resources.
Also if we see people living in Asian continent like China, Burma, SEA, their body size is also smaller compared to white.

Japanese aren't short,may be people born 50 years ago,but not now. If Japanese are short Indians subcontinent people are are dwarf. Japanese are most lean people and don't eat much,other race eat at once in whole sitting what a Japanese eat in a whole day. Koreans and now Chinese are obsessed with height,Chinese due to basketball popularity. I don't categorize Japanese as a small breed genetically ,most of the conception about asians being small,is derived from malnourished Vietnamese,Filipino,Cambodian immigrants. Also the cantonese were not very big but not small either.

Indonesia archipelago is hot ,people in hot weather tend to be shorter to save energy and reduce body mass,that's natural adaptability for survival.In harsh condition, the natural selection adopts a mode for early reproduction rather than body development.It also reduces life expectancy in some part .
The dominant phenotype of Indonesia is archipelago based. Someone with more mainland admix can grow taller based on genetic makeup.

No. Japan is a big island country. But Japanese still have short gene. As the richest country in East Asia, average height of Japanese is still shorter Chinese. Recent statistcs showed younger Japanese are shorter than their parents.

Napoleon is 1.68m tall. Which was the average French male height at his time. Chinese are shorter than white because China just went out from poverty. The situation won't last for long.

What's the point of this thread? Do Chinese need to be considered "white"?

The point of this is to label the Asians as white and therefore, privileged, in the American society according of critical race theory ranking of races. When Asians are categorized as none whites, it’s an glaring obstacles to paint a broad stroke that all none whites are under privileged because of white racism. But if Asians are recategorized as white, than Asians are lump-in together as whites and being label as an oppressive group. And the newly defined none whites are then uniformly oppressed.

This theory is not applied with Africans living in hot area but have bigger posture.

Average height of Japanese and Chinese is not stark different,but the younger Chinese are taller.Mainly due to eating habit,you can't expect people to grow huge with the small sea food(veg-fish) based potion that Japanese eat also Chinese geography effected its population to grow bigger during ancient times and might still carry that effect.

Bowleg isn't short gene

one of tallest female idol in korea is bow legged.

Africans aren't taller than cooler nations .Some africans are mixed ,especially in north ,where protein sources are more abundant.
Africa has some of the shortest people like pygmies

Many of such smaller tribes has been genocided or assimilated by other tribes which has higher life expectancy or bigger frame.

There are many white skin ethnic beside Germanic tribe. North China is basically white. Mongol, Turkic, Japanese, Korean, Persian. Many Arab are also white, but many with reddish skin tone like this one
