Tang dynasty Chinese swords- the ancestor of Japanese swords

From Wikipedia,

The Tang Dynasty (Chinese: 唐朝; pinyin: Táng Cháo; Middle Chinese: dhɑng[1]) (18 June 618--4 June 907) was an imperial dynasty of China preceded by the Sui Dynasty and followed by the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period. It was founded by the Li (李) family,

The Tang Dynasty, with its capital at Chang'an (present-day Xi'an), the most populous city in the world at the time, is regarded by historians as a high point in Chinese civilization — equal to or surpassing that of the earlier Han Dynasty — as well as a golden age of cosmopolitan culture.

Tang Dao is one of greatest invention in Tang dynasty.

here is two links that offer more information about Tang Dao.

@j6331 but as far as warfare, you have to admit that the Han Chinese got owned mostly from the northern nomads. I will say it bluntly that while I think Han Chinese are good at administrating the empire, northern nomads are good at conquering the lands. I think it's great combination.

[Vagina86523]

@j6331 Well I know han is not a race, but more like cultural ethnic group and I agree with you on nomads (khitans, Jurchens, Mongols) adopting to Chinese way of life because Chinese have much rich culture.

[j6331]

@Vagina86523 Well...Han is not even a race...

Han is more of a culture, believe and way of living.

Han was created upon cultural assimilation in the first place.

Other than the west really... all northern foreign invaders get assimilated into "Chinese"

Why? because they prefer Chinese culture than their own

Even the backward Qing dynasty court and emperor, has to use Chinese and study Chinese literature.

and prefer so, because they were nomads.

[Vagina86523]

The Chinese can claim their "superiority" all they want but they have to admit that they were ruled by foreign

forces throughout the history. China has been ruled mostly by Xianbei NOT Han.

@tukkatathai Thailand could have been conquered so much easily by western forces. The only reason Thailand was "independent"

or "not conquered" was because the British and the French decided to use Thailand as BUFFER zone because the british

controlled Burma while French controlled Vietnam. Both the British and the French did not want war each other so they

just used Thailand as Buffer zone. Don't get your horses high.
