In fact, this palace was designed by a Vietnam

@starlandliu

Vietnamese –Nguyen An designed main part of forbidden city Beijing, other as Cai Xin, Lu xiang,..are sub-ordinate of Nguyen An

Nguyen An is chief executive and chief architect , he trained for Chinese worker.

[starlandliu]

@kevinThanh92 The one and only Vietnamese were one of the many engineers and architects participated in the construction of the palace. So cut glorifying everything to your inferior race. Pui!

I say with historical factors.

As you know, in 5000 years ago,has 3 famous tribe in yellow river and yangzi river,they are Jiu Li of Si You,Chinese of Huangdi and Bai Yue of Shennong.

China is modern term,in past China is middle kingdom in yellow river.

If you say Chinese with nationality as now,I can say Chinese has 56 ethnics with Han chinese is majority.

Clearly, in past Yue is not Chinese with ethnic,culture,teritory,...

@Jarhead8741 that is ridiculous, ancient Korea paid tribute to the Chinese empire, they did not have the power to control anything back then.

[chengda85]

@BAIYUE1 Chinese have always been made up of multiple ethnical groups, not just Han, in fact Hans are not really 1 ethnic group, they are just called that because of Han dynasty and the name stuck. you are saying only Hans are CHinese, the other ethnic groups are not chinese, that makes no sense. The Yue people also originated from southern china did they not.

[Jarhead8741]

@lifei8270 they gave it back probably just like how northern France used to be controlled by England

@kimmyrabb

You should researched more about chinese history to know about Yue people who chinese want to hide.Not all of chinese now was created by Han chinese,many come from other ethnic.

[BAIYUE1]

@kimmyrabb

Yes,Nguyen An can't design details of forbidden,but main structure of forbidden city beijing was designed by Nguyen An.And the most important is Nguyen An train for chinese wokers to built it.

[BAIYUE1]

@kimmyrabb

Don't mention Caixin with me.Cai xin and two other architect is subordinate of Nguyen An.Nguyen An is chief architect of forbidden city beijing.Ming emperor give that responsible for Nguyen An.

Not only Forbidden city,Nguyen An is also help Ming dynasty in yellow river.

@BAIYUE1 how smart can you be if you had your penis removed to become another mans servant? That is just about the silliest thing and very primitive.
