I cant imagine a world where everyone would speak Chinese lol

[ethanzombatar]

Us chinese were too busy fighting amongst ourselves. Proved to be a big mistake during the century of humiliation

[BasicallyAltAnimation]

China is like the factory of the world at this point.

Chinese never colonized. Iirc they sent a treasure fleet to showcase other cultures the magnificance of China, basicly packing boats with beautiful chinese items and showing them in other lands.

[Amenmagi]

If you had business with world its not mean you colonized them.they did it with roman, too. it did not mean they colonized rome

[UnitismTelei]

Is this how the “Made in China” label was made?

[NanobanaKinako]

Imagine everyone speaking Chinese and fighting with Kung Fu. Kung Fu might become the biggest sports instead of football.

[NirajKumar-wbhg]

If they did that then whole world is super futuristic today

I hate these types of shorts content makers, this is quite literally all false information. First of all Zheng He's expeditions were sent out to the KNOWN parts of the world by China and the expedition was solely a show of power by the ruling dynasty and to secure tributary states which was basically China's way of colonizing.

The closet the Chinese were ever get to colonizing was the Lanfang Republic/corporation which was a Chinese colony on the island of Borneo that is also the sole reason why Malaysia still kept that part of Borneo as the Lanfang Republic was protected by the Qing.

You can also make a point that the Tang Dynasty, arguably the peak of Chinese power, though its main territories did not change from those of other dynasties, what made the Tang great was their tributary states, stretching all the way from Korea to Herat and Central Asia and from Lake Baikal all to way down to central Vietnam

He didn't do it himself. The emperor did. But the later emperors, to limit influence from the previous emperor, have to forbid his discovery and voyages

The guy learned the story from a McDonald's menu

[jackmcglion]

3 things

1. The early mideval period wasn't the best for Europe. The middle and late were a lot better, though.
2. Europe paddle boats.
3. Vikings went to North America, and I'm not just talking about newfoundland. I'm talking about Greenland, which they stayed for much longer.

They always wanna compares with China, but in fact China should compares with USA or Russia😂

[sooeujohn]

That's actually not true, according to the Chinese history the guy's name was Zheng He and he was sent seven times from china to south Africa by the Chinese emperor and one time he even bought back a giraffe. His his planned route was from china to south east Asia and then to the middle east after passing through India, then finally he reached Africa :)

I wish it was the only country in the world

[ChagataiBorjigin]

The two separated themselves from the world because Mongolia was competing to conquer Beijing and China was to conquer Karakorum

[TheGalacticMarine]

China: "We discovered ships!" Scandinavian/Norse: "You've got a lot farther than you should have but of course you havent met me."

[ChagataiBorjigin]

Because of Mongolia, China did not sell power in sea voyages

[wwbren]

Lies, he visited many places with his giant armada, but they never thought to colonize these places.

[thelaniakean]

They stopped colonialism because they needed to deal with invaders from the north.
And the disadvantage of having such a large area united under one empire is that there is little competition, leading to the rejection of innovation
