You people have to remember that China was advanced in some areas but very backwards in others. For example, they had cannons and repeating crossbows, but they didn't have glass, steel-working or a calendar. It is true that medieval Europeans were quite unimpressive compared to ancient Chinese, but we weren't exactly primitive.
Here's an analogy: imagine a world where we have starships and laser guns, but haven't split the atom or mastered farming or fire. That's what China was like back then.
I can easily tell you 10 western inventions for every Chinese with same influence to our life. But space is too limited here. Truth is, that last 300 years Chinese haven't invented virtually anything. If you divide number of Chinese inventions with number of people in china, they have been quite unimaginative. What west have invented that Chinese haven't. For example - almost everything related to electricity. They made agricultural revolution before us but that was where they progress ended.
The British fought the Chinese during the Qing Dynasty (1644 -1911)- a weak, evil, and incompetent government ruled by an ethnic group from the North. This government made China poor and vulnerable. It didn't even utilize the powerful weapons of the previous dynasty- the Ming. Thus the West was able to easily overpower the Chinese and take what they wanted.
The Chinese invented cannons, rockets, firearms and bombs during the Middle Ages. The "modern" British cannon is old news to them.
Ah no your an idiot. They didn't have rockets or Firearms.
The ancient Chinese had black gunpowder and hand held cannons that were slow at firing.
You can claim crap all you want but if you think you invented everything then obviously China would be ruling the world right now and no being the number 1 exporter doesn't mean you are good because if people stop buying China is gone back into nothing.
@ziongite They absolutely did have those weapons during the SOng Dynasty. Hear me out:
China has been generally more advanced and ahead of their Western counterparts culturally, materially, and militarily for centuries. This held true until the fall of the Ming Dynasty in 1644. Why? After the fall, CHina was ruled by an ethnic minority from the North. This minority created a dynasty that was weak and corrupt and made China very poor. This allowed the West to colonize and take over!
@ziongite I totally agree that China should be isolated (They closed country itself in the past history). And before pay penny of debt for China, China should pay for every product they have pirated, every patent they have stolen. They have much more debt to west than we have them. If they have something to argue, lets stop them having oil from Persian gulf - then we will see who is who.
You have to respect the chinese they are very intelligent. don't know what the whole race war was all about but now both people coexist. Whites a very ingorant about the past.
Why the fuck can we not all get along? Without contributions from East and West we wouldn't be where we are today. The East invented a whole bunch of shit. The West improved upon it during and after Renaissance. Now the East are coming back and improving upon Western tech. It's that simple. We all have sometrhing to be proud of.
I made it to 2:22 and I couldn't watch any longer. The blatant plagiarism is astounding to say the least. Without the ingenuity of the Chinese the West wouldn't of had gun powder, since it was discovered in China.
you can t make documentations with titles like "the unique europeans", "gods chosen to rule the world" , "the angels of science and engineering-europeans".....because it will be considered rassitic, some europeans even developed a shame for their superiority leading to praising over the top the achievements of other "races". first they will make "things europeans never invented...." about china, than islam and than africa.
@myrddinistheshit , yes, their descendants are failing the Euro economy. I don't think angels can save Europe, maybe a few wars in Africa and Asia might boost their economy, and say its all in the name of God.
@Terrapinfan2007 allthough propaganda against europeans which shows them as devils and barbarians is worldwide accepted, especially among europeans themself, they are the ones with the most advanced ethical code ever in history. for instance: ironically there are some very beautiful progressive nordic white women who marry less progressive men from africa and give birth to their children. show me one of the beautiful asian women who want to give birth to black babies.
@myrddinistheshit , i agree, the ethics of norwegians is highly esteemed even among Asians, however, Americans and Brits have lived on a corrupt path for decades and have made people from the white race look like psychopaths.
@Terrapinfan2007 they look like psychopaths because world is not well informed about asian psychopaths, the world knows "jacke the ripper", but does not know about famous psychopaths from asia and africa. why? perhaps european culture is more known than other cultures worldwide. or could it be, there are no asian and african psychopaths?
Respond to this video... keep believing your fantasy, the idea of psychopaths was created by white people to categorize their own. When Asians and Africans do something they're called ruthless because they learned all their destructive ways from white people. If you go back to the Roman period, they were psychopaths, which carried on through the British Empire and now to the U.S. Go learn who the Romans conquered and see the trend of who contracted psychopathy.
@Terrapinfan2007 africans and asians are no noble savages who had to learn bad ways from whites. asians are as morally pervert as whites. the only reason why whites are considered "evil" is due to a) romanticism in the describtion of (ancient) china as a peacefull kingdom it never was and b) as moral revenge for slavery, though arabs were slavemasters of more slaves and for a longer more brutal time. so stereotyping whites is not considered as stereotyping.
@BAIYUE1 You're just like the Koreans claiming that they invented paper/silk/gun powder...etc., even saying Confucius was Korean. Quit being an extreme retard, do some real research. And China's civilization is 5500 years long (documented years). What about Vietnam? The ancient Chinese had to teach the Vietnamese in agriculture and you're claiming the Vietnamese came up with all those innovations before the Chinese did? LOL? You on some serious crack dumb ass.
@BAIYUE1 (1):The entire Chinese race is made up of thousands of different tribes each speak a different dialogue. Each tribe on its own couldn't thrive while many wouldn't even survive. It was inevitable and necessary for them all to be united and formed into one big nation. The Yue people were of underdeveloped, barbaric tribes, and many ancient Yue people fled to the Chinese provinces to escape from other warring Yue tribes' invasions.
@BAIYUE1 (2): Documented, the Chinese invented gun powder, later guns/cannons/rockets/grenades/mines and the first to use them in wars. The Chinese then started selling these advanced weaponry to other countries by trades/exchanges. The very first written paper was found in China, not Vietnam. The documents showed that the inventor was in fact, Chinese, who was born & raised in China and spoke Chinese.
Paper was created by Cai Lun who is Bai Yue people. He created paper based on technology of Bai Yue people.
Actually because Han chinese invaded Bai Yue at that time,there for paper was found in China,because all of south yangzi river is land of Bai Yue people 2000 years ago.
cannon,crossbow was created by Vietnamese.
We had crossbow from 2000 years ago.
Ho Nguyen Trung at Tran dynasty is people who created Cannon,and Ming dynasty has cannon after invaded Dai Yue kingdom.
@BAIYUE1 , yes, don't forget toilet paper, most people including the Europeans were wiping their butts with leaves and sticks. Even the Japanese used sticks, how, barbaric.
At that time, Nguyen An also designed forbidden city beijing for Ming dynasty
Nguyen An is Vietnamese who served for Tran ,Ho dynasty.after Dai Yue was invaded by Ming dynasty,Nguyen An together thousands Vietnamese talents include Ho Nguyen Trung was captured to Beijing
I main reason why China got beaten by The barbarians( Mongolians) was because the barbarians Kidnapped the people who made china's weapons like Cannon, crossbow etc
Im proud of ancient china,but its more urgent to build up an advanced modern china.living overseas,i realize that the most efficient way to earn respect is to build a rich , strong and nation that everyone is scared of.Never forget that people respect rich countries only.we'll use our blood and fresh to regain the lost pride and honor.CHINESE POWER!!!!!!!!
history is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUCKING STUPID, it's nature of human race to advance. all this video is telling me is that europeans are stupid and chinese are smarter.time is turning and u cant watch every thing these inventions were already invented some where else around the world. only reason why europe prevailed is everyone else rather make a plow instead of a gun.
Discovery = fool. British can't have guns without the Chinese gunpowder. Mostly of all the knowledges of Romans & Greeks steal knowledge from India and China, but they got too much prides to admit they're stupid. Western cultures always take credits from others and stamp their name on it. Be a man and admit that it's not your knowledges. No wonder all those past wars, winner always burned books and rewrite the books with their own country's name. All governments suck, greedy bastards.
@ranchuboy7 Yeah I know, some countries made their own inventions, but there are like millions of inventions, it's hard for one of me doing thousands of researching of which one are their and which one are stolen. I spend more time trying to understand everything, so its hard for me to get some wrong and some right. When all governments always spread lies to their people. If everybody tell nice truth, not harsh truth, then the world would been better without all those lies and greeds.
So we stole Nuclear Fusion and Fission from China. We stole electricity and Electric engines from China. We Stole combustion and Jet Engines from China. We stole proton rockets and planes from China. We stole the car and motorbike form China. We stole Computers and screens from China. We stole LASER and Radio wave technology from China.
Really all you Chinese believe this crap. Damn I have seen some Indian Videos claiming the same I mean don't you have anything.
@ziongite Did I said China is 1? No. Some of the stuff you name are in 20th century technology that are from Nazi & Nazi SS that travel most of the world to found the hidden knowledges. I didn't talked about 20th, I said mostly before 20th century. You don't get my point, if everybody admit they stoled something, be mature, and moved on. Even China copy Buddha statue from India, which he originally from, not from China. Humans will always copy and made it look like it's from their country.
this shows that blood lust and greed prevails. inventing gun powder and subsequently firearms but favoring fireworks = fail. if the chinese were more interested in more efficent ways of killing and conquering foreign lands... the world today would be ;)
Every person who has ever died without knowing christ is being tortured in hell this very minute. Makes it amusing to look at videos about ancient china and think "Wow they are still alive haha"!
The Mongols and Manchus ruined the Middle Kingdom.
Though the Great Han have since taken control back from those barbarians the damage has been done. It will take another 300 years to reverse all the destruction by the barbarians.If it wasn't for the low IQ mongols and Machus the Great Middle Kingdom would never lose in a war to the barbarian Japanese and British. The Great Han must learn from the mistakes of their ancestors in giving away their Empire to barbarians and be militarily strong.
@Shaolinkungfucat Also I want to tell you that I had the opportunity to study in both Western and Taiwanese universities and with both Western and Asian classmates. I can tell you by personal experience that even though Asian may have more discipline, definitely most Asians have a huge lack of independent thinking and can barely say something that is not already written in a book. That goes not only for Chinese and Taiwanese, but also for Korean and Japanese.
25% of the Earth population are East Asians. There are Chinese, Koreans, Japanese in every major country and many of them are scientists, economists, artists, athletes, politicians, leaders, and inventors.
Your personal opinion and experience are irrelevant. Now kindly excuse yourself out of this video and go cry into a pillow.
@Shaolinkungfucat Classical way of thinking of a chinese. I guess not having freedom of speech cause people to do not know that their opinions can also have some importance. Pity.
Typical way of thinking of an imbecile who thinks he knows something when in fact he knows nothing. Don't pretend to be an all-knowing saint you pretentious fuck.
You speak like a fucking robot that has a built in Anti-Chinese propaganda function in the CPU.
I don't give a fuck how many nonsensical drivel tumble out of your mouth. All I know is that when you know nothing. You should say nothing.
@Shaolinkungfucat Anti-chinese propaganda function? I study Chinese culture and language right now and I quite admire some parts of Chinese culture and history. But that does mean China is perfect and does not have any mistakes, is a shame most Chinese cannot accept any criticism. Also you didn't refute anything you just tried to insult me... BTW you said "when you know nothing you should say nothing" follow your own advise and don't say nonsense like what you said about living in caves.
Did I EVER say we are perfect? Seriously you have severe reading comprehension difficulties that you need to address immediately. READ MY COMMENTS again. East Asians make up 25% of Earth population and there are Chinese, Koreans, Japanese everywhere and many are scientists, artists, inventors, athletes, economists, innovators. You can voice your displeasure with the government but to a generalize East Asian PEOPLE as a whole is utterly laughable, rude, petty, and brainless.
@Shaolinkungfucat You don't have a complete opinion as I guess you have never lived outside of China. What I know, I know it by myself and even some of my professors in Taiwan have told me how most Asian lack of independent thinking (not because they are dumb or anything, but because the Confucian traditions do not allow the students to really interact with the professor) Of course there are some inventors but relatively speaking they are few. Experience a western school, then say something.
I have been living the US for the past 10 years. How else did you think I learned to speak English, Mr. Know-it-all? And apparently, the painful truth here is that you fail to possess any reading comprehension capabilities whatsoever. Moreover, to make the matters worse, your statements are permeated with fallacies. If you don't know what a fallacy is. I suggest you take a philosophy course.
@Shaolinkungfucat Sure as living in US in the only way to learn English. I've never lived in any English-speaking country and I still managed to learn English. Most people actually learn English without ever living in any English-speaking country. Mine permeated with fallacies? what about "Westerners will live in caves without the Chinese?" I sure know more about philosophy than you, both Western and Chinese. "I refuse to waste my breath on you", more like you don't have valid arguments haha.
you know what, despite the current corrupted chinese government and seemingly poor living standards in china, china will sure rise again with its wisdom and rich culture. its not about the people who ruling it, its all about the people
damn you smart chinese people! i just got done with mongolian history. it was crazy. this seems more peaceful for me. mongol was nothing but ruling and killing.
Not much foreigner can completely understand the ancient of china.it's really really hard to understand chinese culture if u not Chinese,no matter how well u know in history but u have to be an Chinese to fully understand Chinese culture!!
@dragondescent You attribute too much to Marco Polo, considering that other Italian merchants lived in China during the Yuan period (their gravestones still exist). The replacement of papyrus with paper as well as printing helped spread Renaissance ideas at a very fast pace, but these were only facilitators, not the grand substance, which was ancient Greco-Roman science, mathematics, and the arts. Also, why mention Sparta? City-states like Athens, Rhodes, and Syracuse left a far greater legacy.
@dragondescent Not exactly. 9th century Tang-dynasty Chinese merchants used paper trading receipts for exchanging goods with specific enterprises. This was the origins of banknotes, but actual printed paper money issued by the government for public circulation was not achieved until the 11th century during the Song Dynasty. Woodblock printing was invented in China in the 7th century, not 220 AD. Movable type was invented by Chinese artisan Bi Sheng in the 11th century, however...[CONTINUED]
@EricMetalGuitarist [CONTINUED FROM BELOW] ...Johaness Gutenberg did not employ the earlier manual Chinese method of movable type. Instead, he created a new machine with a mechanical screw press, which Bi Sheng and later Wang Zhen did not use because such a device was absent from Chinese civilization until European contact (16th century).
I don't understand your point about Sparta and Rome. Please clarify. My argument about the Renaissance is entirely accurate, I own many books on the subject.
@dragondescent Marco Polo did describe Yuan Dynasty (and perhaps even earlier Song) paper banknotes, but he did not introduce it as a new currency in Europe, let alone printing, which did not exist in Europe until the 15th century (in woodblock and then movable type form with Johaness Gutenberg's printing press). And Marco did not initiate the Renaissance, which was a cultural and intellectual movement focused on reviving traditions of ancient Greece and the Roman Empire.
@dragondescent Please, inform me of which specific Chinese inventions Marco Polo brought back to Venice, Italy on his return home. Oh wait, that's right, you can't name a single one, because THERE ARE NONE. His fellow Europeans found his travel stories fascinating (with mouth-watering commercial trade prospects in mind for Venetians), but he didn't even bring back an early Yuan-Dynasty gunpowder weapon or even chopsticks for that matter. The Renaissance was responsible for Europe's rebirth.
I compare China to different cities in South Africa they have a lot of similiar Empires their ethinicity seems to have a mixed DNA with certain Africans throw out the world.
europeans didn't recieve any chinese inventions.... they invented themselves.... the chinese were isolationist people... they were secretive people... the chiense didn't contribute anything to the West... this documentary is very fustrating, coz its very baised.... the chinese will try and discredit the west about everything
@cttn101 its funny, because many of the speakers and the people being interviewed are white. i don't know if you can tell, but that means they're from the west. lol. and why do you think this documentary is in English? the chinese weren't 'very secretive people', they couldn't have been, they engaged in trade with the middle east, which spread many things to Europe.
In actual fact, Europeans will try, and very successfully, have discredited many Chinese and Asian inventions - SUCH AS YOU
@marcusyuguang I know some people (some Chinese scholars as well) have tried to discredit many inventions from China and other parts of Asia. Don't worry about them, reality is reality no matter what people say. The truth is hardy any serious historian discredits those inventions. They mainly debate about their efficiency, not their existence.
@marcusyuguang really..? Im sorry, who discovered electricity..? who built the first sewerage system..? who built the first underground railway system.? who coined the concept of universities..? who discovered "The New World" - the America's, Australia, Pacific Islands, Antartica" Asia has always been behind the West in Science & Technology, not to mention our-way of life, culture and performing arts and architecture is far more appealing..
That all happened in the last few centuries. China became stagnant during that period due to the manchu takeover, and stopped innovation and closed up. This is while Britain & Europe waged war and colonialisation against other countries through force & violence to gain power & money, allowing innovation. You see, every civilisation had its hey day - egypt, greece, rome, china, india, britain. It's only time before america and the west fall, allowing a new power(s) to rise and innovate.
@cttn101 , well the west never had Kings and Queens to uphold and be oppressed by, the West were able to manage their problems on a very small scale with a few guns. Without the Chinese, the West would have never been able to capture America without gunpowder and European disease. The west never lived under a monarchy, thank the Brits for being weak willed to take over America.
@cttn101 : Discover electricity? Benjamin Franklin didn't even have fundamental laws of physics down. Electricity was found by accident. Western culture is more appealing, haha, must be a reason why they fail miserably in school, to do drugs and prostitute their lives away. Yes, very appealing.
@Terrapinfan2007 iragardless weather it was an accident, thats just one tiny point..Western Science has always been superior; From Astronomy, to Health & Santitation, to Genetics & Evolution of Life on Earth, Geology, Physics... Architecture; i.e Amphithreatres, Cathedrals, Industry-Halls, Banks, Post-Offices, Hospitals etc... Transport; Planes, Cars, Trains, Ships. Telecommunications; Radio, TV, Phones.. Fridges.. Face it.. without the European-Race... you would be sitting around camp-fires.
When china, India and muslim countries decline in science and technology in europe there was a renaissance with all that knowledge that came from those countries from 1400 to today, the printed book (gutenberg) is the invention that revolutionized european science and technology with the book you could transfer knowedge in a very efficient way, china and india are catching up now, because today there are better way to transfer knowledge.
@Terrapinfan2007 mhhmm wow.. your very clever... yes, indeed, all western culture is about drugs, and prostitution... so we created the world as we know it today because we all are involved like this..? where do you come from.. ? some LA ghetto..? or some Thailand Resort or Veitnam resort..? Yes Western Culture is far more Appealing... our way of life, our Fashion, Our Sports, Our Food, Our Legal & Democratic System, Our Literature, Our Theatre, Our Performing Arts. OUR EVERYTHING!!
even to this day, 2011 China is still behind the West... The West has already been thru The Industralisation process, between 1800-1970... Asia only began industralising from the 1970's.... and still has at least 80 years to go, before it catches up to the West... but the thing is, The West has already done everything China is doing, we are moving to Sustainable Energy, and Longetivity... China is still emmitting 300Billion tones of Carbon... The West=Been there, done that in the 1800's
@marcusyuguang man, those new kinds of western "ancient science.....of china" , "marvellous ingeneering ....of china", "science stolen.....by europeans", are both ,first a demonstration of the western and european scientists and "scientists" glorifiyng china and belittle europe of their political corectness towards races they secretly consider of less value than themselves and second a nice opportunity to get a very big audience of chinese who are watching their "documentations" with ill pride.
@marcusyuguang this document has to be in english otherwise u people wont understand a thing, u small minded tard, go and read ur bible that u use to heal ur people in the dark age
@cttn101 Wrong? Chinese were anything but secretive people, my friend. Their influence stretched from Asia to East Africa. There is so much evidence of Chinese contribution to Western thought and invention, you guys just choose to deny it. Take Chinoiserie for example. Also, many European royalties viewed China as an enlightened kingdom then, which is why many women then fashioned fans, parasols, silk etc, in the same manner women today fashion themselves with branded accessories.
nope wrong again asia didnt like europe and they followed isolationism through diplomacy, but they did trade.
for ex mathew c perry forced thrade with japaneese. europe forced trade of opium. there arent many other races in china or japan for a reason they dont want others their.
@cttn101 you're one of the stupidest people I've met. Did you ever do any research on this shit? Get your facts straight dumb ass! and stop being such a troll you moron!
china and the chinese were a backward people before europeans come to contact them...!! firstly, the Compass, that the Chinese Invented is completely different to the one Europeans invented, europeans didn't base their idea or use the Chinese one..secondly, The Industrial revolution is a thing that come-about in England and spread to Europe and then changed the entire world forever.. like look around you, europeans invented everything... electricity for a start..! and we are better looking
@cttn101 First of, I suggest you to read a little more about China before you make a one-sided perspective of how China was then. China was under Manchurian rule when Europeans first made contact with it, and during this time the empire refused to put reforms - thus the backwardness. If the European colonists were to come a little earlier, they would of experienced a very different perspective of China. One that is best described in early European travellers' works there.
If you don't have something nice to say, maybe you just shouldn't say anything at all. Maybe you just weren't raised right. (@StephenG7 Thanks for the video man!!!)
LOL why are the Koreans even here? They have no influence in history. I'm Japanese but everyone knows that China was the the most advanced nation and everything the Europeans used to be successful( Gunpowder, Compass, Paper) were from China. Korea has only been Japan and China's bitch for the past thousand years. Only Japan, China, and Mongols were influential in East Asia. Koreans are just jealous.
im not english nor American or Chinese. i do live in England and know how arogant racist English people are.
Today i learned a new thing about England i didnt really know.
the English are morons thats for sure they stole from Africa America and so many others and the whole industrial revolution that english claim it come from england.
Im sure they stole everything from China.!!!!
4th of July for Scotland United Ireland and a new American colony called england !!!
WE Koreans make fun of you because of low IQ and short height. I think japs are filipinos. Koreans and Chinese look human beings who made civilization. Both are 5,000 years old.

Hanul91 you are pathetic. Why are you stirring up all these hate among the three major nations of East Asia? I'll leave you alone but you need a LIFE
I don't see why people always have to bring up all this racial crap all the time. Sure China will rise up again, and it will invade and conquer other cultures/nations. Why? because it's always easier to play catch-up than to lead. It's all about focus and determination. It might take hundreds of years but it will happen. It's just the nature of history. I am thankful for being Chinese myself because I really enjoy playing the underdog, it's fun and rewarding, and makes life so interesting.
captn1pugwash, sorry I'm not arabian, I'm overseas chinese. I just want to state that every civilization has its own unique contribution to the world so stop typing racist comment... It's a truth that middle age europeans had come even far towards south asia to spread racism and kill people, even chineses had been killed in south east asia around 18th century... name 1 country that chineses had ever colonized?????
@cool68yud don't you see that the comment you made is also racist i agree with you on the point that every civilization has made its own unique contribution to the world and each civilization should be recognized for this.ill name you 3 countries that china has invaded and colonized Korea, Vietnam, and Tibet like all people who accuse others of racism your quick to find fault in others but not to keen to address your own historical crimes no civilization is innocent of racism and colonization
Only Han Chinese "colonized" Korea which was at that time Gojoseon (古朝鮮). but the funny part is that it never conquered the peninsula. 古朝鮮 predates Shang dynasty, it was first Dong-yi nation.
@Hanul91 like so many people who tell others to learn history you need to take a closer look at your history yourself you admit below that han chinese colonized korea then you contradict yourself by saying to me they didnt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty conquered the peninsulas which became Chinese commanderies for over 400 years An influx of Chinese immigrants, mainly from the Yan (Hebei) and Qi (Shandong) provinces, continued without cessation, implanting Chinese culture into the peninsulas
The point is that Emperor Wudi conquered Chosun, not the peninsula. There are no artifacts in peninsula that date back to Eastern Han or later Han for that matter. He conquered west of Liaodong, not peninsula. The Han commanderies was situated in Liao for 300 years, not 400 from 108 BC.
@Hanul91 the book i have and i only have 1 on the subject says Emperor Wu also expanded his territory into the korean peninsula by establishing the commandery of canghai .the fact remains however that you told me that china never invaded korea or colanised it when its clear that it did have some success in doing so and it tried to conquer the whole area which was my point in the original comment to cool68yud that your refering to so you have actually helped prove my point
Did you ever read the actual historical texts of Han shi or others as well. It always mentions Chosun, never peninsula. Historians are dubious about Han commanderies in the peninsula itself because there are no perserved fortresses or any artifacts of Eastern Han at that time.
@Hanul91 no i havent but i would be interested to read them however this dosent change the fact that china did invade and colonize a lot of korea and you said it didnt china attempted to colonize tibet between 1910-12 and genocide charges are being brought by tibet because of the hundreds of thousands of people that the goverment in exile claim were killed by china between 1949-1950
@Hanul91 they tried to colonize them and they also invaded them my whole point is that nearly every country has invaded and colonized others or tried to not just the west
@Hanul91 yes do you mean that iran was islamosized but never arabized the iranians never lost most of their culture they even invented shia islam so they could keep most of their ancient religious festivals and such
Like I said its a misconception that Korea was colonized by China for MANY times. The only time is Han when they conquered Gojoseon and put Han commanderies in LiaoHe.
@Hanul91 im not disagreeing with you on that point the point i was making was that cool68yud claimed that china never attacked or tried to colonize anybody.. that it is only the west that dose that sort of thing.. i was simply saying to him that china has tried to do it as well even if they didnt totally succeed they still none the less tried which was my whole point i think you might misunderstand what my point is
@Hanul91 in future before you waste my time again get your facts right and don't contradict yourself on the next comment down from the comment that you have just written to me, because it makes you look like a fool, and make your mind up whether the Chinese invaded or not one minute you tell me they didn't the next you admit they did, i don't think you know if your coming or going, i only have one book on the subject yet you a supposed expert cant make his mind up if their was an invasion or not
Did I say Chinese never invaded? Sure they did. But you assume we were "colonized" by them , "many times". I know some persian history, you were ruled by other people other than arabs. Islamization? More like Arabization, hence why Persians still use Arabic writing system right?
I see you in all the Chinese Culture related videos you pathetic Korean pig. Go get a fucking life and stop claiming cultures that do not belong to Gooks.
Koreans are so pathetic..............
Even though Manchuria used to belong to Korea, so what? We took it and it's ours. Got a problem? Take it if you can !
Well yea SARs fucked up your Gooky Chink head and that's all the Greater Korean Masturbation Revolution started.
Oh sorry to disappoint you....but I did breed with Korean girls before....ooops....and they are not low class whores...they are Greater Korean Civilized People :-)))))
@JKFDDSY2009 stfu you fucking god damn alligator eating pink primate bitch...asian culture is the most pure not like your culture who live to get fucked by black guys....why do you white boy like to watch your wife get fucked by black guys???...you sick ass fucking raccoon stew eating sick fucks

I can easily tell you 10 western inventions for every Chinese with same influence to our life. But space is too limited here. Truth is, that last 300 years Chinese haven't invented virtually anything. If you divide number of Chinese inventions with number of people in china, they have been quite unimaginative.

The ancient Chinese had black gunpowder and hand held cannons that were slow at firing.
You can claim crap all you want but if you think you invented everything then obviously China would be ruling the world right now and no being the number 1 exporter doesn't mean you are good because if people stop buying China is gone back into nothing.

@ziongite They absolutely did have those weapons during the SOng Dynasty. Hear me out:
China has been generally more advanced and ahead of their Western counterparts culturally, materially, and militarily for centuries. This held true until the fall of the Ming Dynasty in 1644. Why? After the fall, CHina was ruled by an ethnic minority from the North. This minority created a dynasty that was weak and corrupt and made China very poor. This allowed the West to colonize and take over!

@ziongite I totally agree that China should be isolated (They closed country itself in the past history). And before pay penny of debt for China, China should pay for every product they have pirated, every patent they have stolen. They have much more debt to west than we have them. If they have something to argue, lets stop them having oil from Persian gulf - then we will see who is who.

Respond to this video... keep believing your fantasy, the idea of psychopaths was created by white people to categorize their own. When Asians and Africans do something they're called ruthless because they learned all their destructive ways from white people. If you go back to the Roman period, they were psychopaths, which carried on through the British Empire and now to the U.S. Go learn who the Romans conquered and see the trend of who contracted psychopathy.
Terrapinfan2007 5 months ago
@Terrapinfan2007 africans and asians are no noble savages who had to learn bad ways from whites. asians are as morally pervert as whites. the only reason why whites are considered "evil" is due to a) romanticism in the describtion of (ancient) china as a peacefull kingdom it never was and b) as moral revenge for slavery, though arabs were slavemasters of more slaves and for a longer more brutal time. so stereotyping whites is not considered as stereotyping.

@dragondescent You attribute too much to Marco Polo, considering that other Italian merchants lived in China during the Yuan period (their gravestones still exist). The replacement of papyrus with paper as well as printing helped spread Renaissance ideas at a very fast pace, but these were only facilitators, not the grand substance, which was ancient Greco-Roman science, mathematics, and the arts. Also, why mention Sparta? City-states like Athens, Rhodes, and Syracuse left a far greater legacy.
EricMetalGuitarist 11 months ago
@dragondescent Not exactly. 9th century Tang-dynasty Chinese merchants used paper trading receipts for exchanging goods with specific enterprises. This was the origins of banknotes, but actual printed paper money issued by the government for public circulation was not achieved until the 11th century during the Song Dynasty. Woodblock printing was invented in China in the 7th century, not 220 AD. Movable type was invented by Chinese artisan Bi Sheng in the 11th century, however...[CONTINUED]
EricMetalGuitarist 11 months ago
@EricMetalGuitarist [CONTINUED FROM BELOW] ...Johaness Gutenberg did not employ the earlier manual Chinese method of movable type. Instead, he created a new machine with a mechanical screw press, which Bi Sheng and later Wang Zhen did not use because such a device was absent from Chinese civilization until European contact (16th century).
I don't understand your point about Sparta and Rome. Please clarify. My argument about the Renaissance is entirely accurate, I own many books on the subject.
EricMetalGuitarist 11 months ago
@dragondescent Marco Polo did describe Yuan Dynasty (and perhaps even earlier Song) paper banknotes, but he did not introduce it as a new currency in Europe, let alone printing, which did not exist in Europe until the 15th century (in woodblock and then movable type form with Johaness Gutenberg's printing press). And Marco did not initiate the Renaissance, which was a cultural and intellectual movement focused on reviving traditions of ancient Greece and the Roman Empire.
EricMetalGuitarist 11 months ago
@dragondescent Please, inform me of which specific Chinese inventions Marco Polo brought back to Venice, Italy on his return home. Oh wait, that's right, you can't name a single one, because THERE ARE NONE. His fellow Europeans found his travel stories fascinating (with mouth-watering commercial trade prospects in mind for Venetians), but he didn't even bring back an early Yuan-Dynasty gunpowder weapon or even chopsticks for that matter. The Renaissance was responsible for Europe's rebirth.

@cttn101 First of, I suggest you to read a little more about China before you make a one-sided perspective of how China was then. China was under Manchurian rule when Europeans first made contact with it, and during this time the empire refused to put reforms - thus the backwardness. If the European colonists were to come a little earlier, they would of experienced a very different perspective of China. One that is best described in early European travellers' works there.

Hanul91 you are pathetic. Why are you stirring up all these hate among the three major nations of East Asia? I'll leave you alone but you need a LIFE

I don't see why people always have to bring up all this racial crap all the time. Sure China will rise up again, and it will invade and conquer other cultures/nations. Why? because it's always easier to play catch-up than to lead. It's all about focus and determination. It might take hundreds of years but it will happen. It's just the nature of history. I am thankful for being Chinese myself because I really enjoy playing the underdog, it's fun and rewarding, and makes life so interesting.

but dont forget that ancient china maybe not the origin of, but must the pusher and propeller of modern western history:
paper and printing skill helped then-time europeans promote enlightenment thoughts and then push through the age of Enlightment or the Renaissance.
gunpowder helped then-time european emperors destroy feudal castles and built modern european nation-states.
compass helped then-time europeans direct far-way voyage and so push through global exploration.

captn1pugwash, sorry I'm not arabian, I'm overseas chinese. I just want to state that every civilization has its own unique contribution to the world so stop typing racist comment... It's a truth that middle age europeans had come even far towards south asia to spread racism and kill people, even chineses had been killed in south east asia around 18th century... name 1 country that chineses had ever colonized?????

@cool68yud don't you see that the comment you made is also racist i agree with you on the point that every civilization has made its own unique contribution to the world and each civilization should be recognized for this.ill name you 3 countries that china has invaded and colonized Korea, Vietnam, and Tibet like all people who accuse others of racism your quick to find fault in others but not to keen to address your own historical crimes no civilization is innocent of racism and colonization

China only really colonized ancient vietnam.
Tibet and other former lands were conquered and colonized during
NON-han chinese dynastys like the Yuan(mongol) and Qing(manchu) ect..
And Korean was never colonized by China. most nations were tributary states.

Only Han Chinese "colonized" Korea which was at that time Gojoseon (古朝鮮). but the funny part is that it never conquered the peninsula. 古朝鮮 predates Shang dynasty, it was first Dong-yi nation.

Korea nor Tibet was colonized. China never conquered both of those countries. Please, learn history before you speak.

@Hanul91 like so many people who tell others to learn history you need to take a closer look at your history yourself you admit below that han chinese colonized korea then you contradict yourself by saying to me they didnt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty conquered the peninsulas which became Chinese commanderies for over 400 years An influx of Chinese immigrants, mainly from the Yan (Hebei) and Qi (Shandong) provinces, continued without cessation, implanting Chinese culture into the peninsulas
captn1pugwash 1 year ago
@captn1pugwash
The point is that Emperor Wudi conquered Chosun, not the peninsula. There are no artifacts in peninsula that date back to Eastern Han or later Han for that matter. He conquered west of Liaodong, not peninsula. The Han commanderies was situated in Liao for 300 years, not 400 from 108 BC.
Hanul91 1 year ago
@Hanul91 the book i have and i only have 1 on the subject says Emperor Wu also expanded his territory into the korean peninsula by establishing the commandery of canghai .the fact remains however that you told me that china never invaded korea or colanised it when its clear that it did have some success in doing so and it tried to conquer the whole area which was my point in the original comment to cool68yud that your refering to so you have actually helped prove my point
captn1pugwash 1 year ago
@captn1pugwash
Did you ever read the actual historical texts of Han shi or others as well. It always mentions Chosun, never peninsula. Historians are dubious about Han commanderies in the peninsula itself because there are no perserved fortresses or any artifacts of Eastern Han at that time.
Hanul91 1 year ago
@Hanul91 no i havent but i would be interested to read them however this dosent change the fact that china did invade and colonize a lot of korea and you said it didnt china attempted to colonize tibet between 1910-12 and genocide charges are being brought by tibet because of the hundreds of thousands of people that the goverment in exile claim were killed by china between 1949-1950

Like I said its a misconception that Korea was colonized by China for MANY times. The only time is Han when they conquered Gojoseon and put Han commanderies in LiaoHe.

@Hanul91 im not disagreeing with you on that point the point i was making was that cool68yud claimed that china never attacked or tried to colonize anybody.. that it is only the west that dose that sort of thing.. i was simply saying to him that china has tried to do it as well even if they didnt totally succeed they still none the less tried which was my whole point i think you might misunderstand what my point is

Did I say Chinese never invaded? Sure they did. But you assume we were "colonized" by them , "many times". I know some persian history, you were ruled by other people other than arabs. Islamization? More like Arabization, hence why Persians still use Arabic writing system right?
