Why do we never hear about Zheng He or Mansa Qu but always about cristobal colon?
>>18251278Those chinks had no faustian spirit
Negligble impact, maybe if Africa ended up sinicised like Central/America ended up iberijeeted due to conquest/90% of the population dying from disease it would be a different story
>>18251283>>18251284>If you don't commit a massive ethnic genocide, then you're irrelevantThe white mindset.
Probably because he didn't actually discovered anything, he just traveled to already know sea routes the chinese knew.
>>18251298Columbus and his consequences changed a whole continent(s). Zheng He didn't.
>>18251308>>18251310>Only european history mattersok.I guess that's the only thing europeans have now."History"
>>18251313No one said that. You asked why we hear about one explorer more than another and it was answered. This is the last response from me, I'll let you continue with the >whypeepo, amirite XD/int/shit
>>18251324It's not that cristobal is more famous, is that he's the only one being taught.Big diference.It would be like only teaching leonardo da vinci as the only painter of history.Or einstein as the only scientists in history.
>>18251335False, you asked why do we always hear more about one or the other. Plus, you should ask instead asians if they know more about that Chinese voyager
>>18251278Zheng he is talked too much for what a fucking ball less moron he was.
>>18251278That's not Zheng He in the picture, he was physically incapably of growing facial hair.>>18251283>>18251344>>18251310Zheng He was of Central Asian descend from a Bukharan family and was a eunuch in the Ming dynasty court.
