Why do we never hear about Zheng He but always about cristobal colon?
>>217848722The west fears China
>why do we in the west hear about the most famous western explorer instead of this literal who chinaman
>>217848722he looks like a fag
>>217848876He's famous in east asia.>Literal whoHe reached america 50 years before colon.
>>217849193>He reached america 50 years before coloncool. how many settlements did china have in america?that's why he's irrelevant. just as leif eriksson is irrelevant
>>217849304Why is poortugal irrelevant if they had settlements?
>>217849193>he reached Americaproofs? He sailed around the Indian Ocean.
>>217849357Because it’s a country of 10 million, not 1 billion that still failed to create settlements in the past
>>217849304>>217849460So china wasn't literally 70-80% of the world economy in the 16 century?Or why do you assume china needed to explore to steal resources from others?China doesn't need to explore, like they literally said to the british once.>>217849425dunno.But there's other famous non western explorers like Mansa Qu, from west africa.
>>217849357
>>217848722he was muslim
imagine if this chink actually reached americagradual exposure to diseaseno chinese colonial interesttrading new world spices for old world weaponryancient cultures perfectly preservedmost importantly, no latinX born out of miscegenation between spaniards and nativeswhat a merry world it would have been
>>217848722he was a eunuch
impact
>>217849516>China doesn't need to explore, like they literally said to the british once.A cope, they also saw the European powers as vassal states (despite not knowing we existed until we showed up) then we and the frogs pushed their shit in
>>217849840china knew europe existed since roman timesthere was a chinese monk who visited medieval europehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabban_Bar_Sauma
>>217849516>Or why do you assume china needed to explore to steal resources from others?>a literal 'devuelve el oro' argumentlmao
>>217849944>>217849840China has never shown a desire to go and conquer, kill and steal resources like the europeans.>but muh civil war siege with 20k eaten civilians>but china saw europeans as vassals.Because europe was 50+% of the world economy by the 17-18 century.It would be like if an empire of bolivians went to modern day japan and claimed the japanese were inferior.
>>217850054Sorry, I mean that china was 50+% of world GDP
>>217850054shut up ceron
china would not have colonized the americas because japan blocks them and the pacifuc ocean is much bigger than the atlantic ocean
>>217850105How do you feel about portugal not being able to compete internationally without war and killing the non whites?Isn't funny how brazil is now more relevant than your empire from 500 years ago?And what do you have?Old people in villages, and some history of 500 years ago.The only relevant portugal shit is to have CR7.Even in soccer brazil mogs you.
>>217850083anywhere pre-industrial, 99% of the population were illiterate farmers, so world gdp is more or less just a population countand they did not get to their size by sitting around being peaceful. china has conquered and genocided their way through their neighbours to get their current lands and size
>>217850279the mongols and turks deserved it
>>217848722I only know about Zheng He because of Far Cry 3
>>217849532Finns should paint their skin brow to make fun of the moortuguese
>>217850279that's funny because the opoid wars happened because british empire was having such trade imabalance with china it was getting bankrupt.lmao.China was literally producing shit like porcelain, ceramics, paper, powder, textiles, silk, since the roman empire days.The romans thought that silk was a miracle and chinese silk was a luxury good in the roman empire.
>>217850312
>>217850054>It would be like if an empire of bolivians went to modern day japan and claimed the japanese were inferior.they would be right, in fact, the entire world is inferior to Boliaryans
>>217850651The other squat there fills me with disgust. What is wrong with him, using the symbol of an ethnicity to insult that same ethnicity? Why are latinx retarded?
>>217850651You’re not even white sister idk what you on
>>217848722Kinda hard to take him seriously when his exploration starts off, according to legend.
