China’s history is very underrated and needs to be talked about more in the west. Anyways, great video!

The fact of the Sino Japanese war from 1931 to 1945: many people believe that at that time China had only the Communist Party and the Kuomintang, so there were only two colors of China on the map. But the fact is that China was very chaotic at that time. There are many large-scale internal wars. After about a decade of super chaotic civil war, most troops, all heavy weapons, bullets and artillery shells were used to fight the civil war. For example, during the Chinese civil war in 1931, the Kuomintang deployed onemillion troops to destroy the Chinese Communist Party. At this time, it is difficult to resist a well prepared Japan.

Very detailed and informative video. However, there are still some mistakes.

1. There are two major Muslim rebellions in 1850-70s instead of one. One is Panthay Rebellion in Yunnan, and the other is Dungan Revolt in Shaanxi and Gansu in 1862-1877. The map showed the rebellion in Shaanxi, but didn't use the right name.

2. The location of Kouang-Tchéou-Wan was on the east side of the Leizhou Peninsula, which is today's Zhanjiang City. The location on the map is too east.

3. There were many changes of province borders after the founding of PRC, including Jiangsu & Anhui border, Anhui & Jiangxi border, Guangdong & Guangxi border, etc., which is not showed on the map. In 1969-1979, the eastern border of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region was also different from the current one.


4. Sino-Indian War of 1962. After 1947, India claimed the sovereinity of Aksai Chin, which is beyond the Macartney-Macdonald Line of India-China border. In this war, China got back the control of Aksai Chin, as well as the Arunachal Pradesh, but gave up Arunachal in the coming winter.

For years, believe me, for years I've been searching for a video showing the evolution of the political subdividion of China, and suddenly I found this video. Thanks a lot. New suscriber. 👍👍👍

The quality is very good. I can't imagine how long this took.

[MrBdoleagle]

as a Chinese, I would say this video is from neutral stance and is really amazing. I can image how long it will take for a foreigner to make it. Great and thanks.

This is the most headache inducing map timelapse video I’ve ever watched, thank you for the history lessons I’ve learned

I really thought “wouldn’t it be funny if that 1 Mao Zedong song played during his rule? Nah this is a serious video.”
And then that 1 Mao Zedong song played during his rule. Lovely.

What people need to remember is that for the entire time that Chiang Kai-Shek ruled the RoC, it was at best a corrupt oligarchy, and eventually just became an outright dictatorship that oppressed the native Taiwanese.

Never have I seen such a detailed mapping channel, you got even the provinces! Congrats

There's nothing more Chinese than traditional Chinese music playing while watching a map of China fragmenting

Its nice hearing the Chinese Victory Song From World War 2, I Listened to both defend the yellow river and Victory Song, Which The Song sounds Very Beautiful.

The fact that those words below "Emperor:" of Great Qing are not the name of emperors but the reign title.

Reign title; name
Xianfeng(咸豐); Yi-Zhu(奕詝)
Tongzhi(同治); Zai-Chun(載淳)
Guangxu(光緒); Zai-Tian(載湉)
Xuantong(宣統); Pu-Yi(溥儀)

Brother, you are the best map of China I have ever seen from another country

[huangec]

Amazingly informative! I'm definitely saving this.

I gotta say, I only knew surface-level 20th century history about China, particularly WW2 and a little bit about the Sino-Soviet split later on. However, I ended up taking two semesters of Chinese history at university covering 1890 to 2010 pretty in-depth, and I gotta say, Chinese history is really fucking interesting.
