I have always wondered how a country as big as china can be as homogeneous as china? Only other set of people where we see homogeneity of such order are the ones that canabalized neighbouring sabhyatas. Only these are known and documented. How come china does not get spoken of in this regard. Their patience in the take over of Tibet is worthy of note.
Shows clearly how much the Chinese love peaceful rises and yoga.
History has shown how they love to butcher and conquer. It's in their blood.

Look at the table above. A lot of the above mentioned wars in which the Chinese have lost LARGE PERCENTAGES of their populations, have been RIOTS and intra ethnic conflict.KLNMurthy wrote:Rudradev, I think Beijing is after more than pinching pennies from India, their nature and methods indicate they want nothing short of vassalhood and enslavement from India. From their pov, in the worst case, if India manages to hold them at bay, they still don't lose anything more than a diminuition of their buffer.
We need to think about ways of harming core Chinese interests.
This is their weak point.
If you want to trouble them, encourage .
1. Taiwan
2. Buddhism
3. Ethnicities to prosper and gain precedence.
4. Encourage the individual Chinese to speak up and have SOFT power. This leads to a rise
in culture of the average Chinaman. Culture leads to ethnic identity. Leads to culture. Leads to friction, leads to clashes. Leads to peaceful Indo tibetan border.
5. As above; democracy.
