      Notice the flags? This is not about imperial China, it is about the PRC.

      Or are you one of the weirdos who also thinks Russian Empire = USSR = Russian Federation?

        Notice the war in 598? The one mislabeled as a war of defence? When the Sui dynasty invaded Korea?

        Are you one of those weirdos that doesn’t bother to look stuff up instead of reposting?

        It seems weird to include different time periods for either one. I’d cut out USA stuff prior to PRC existing out so it’s more even comparison

      yeah, i think this is relying pretty heavily on people’s ignorance of china’s history to seem even remotely believable. idk why they feel the need to lie anyway, cause china’s record in the modern day is still undeniably better than the US’s.

        Pretty sure the intention was the PRC’s history, and used China as a way to let people who don’t know what the PRC is. Poor formatting, I agree.
