China not empire. Behehehehehhehehehehehhehehhe!
Please explain for the class what imperialism is in your view and how China fits that.
Skip to the nameca...
Oh wait. We are at the belittling flowchart. I do not know this one yet.
Let me grab popcorn.
Gotcha, so nothing.
Not only has China been an imperialist regional super power for the majority of its lo g history, but simply ask Taiwan, the Uyghurs, Tibet, Hong Kong, Vietnam or any of the various countries China is practicing neocolonialism in in Africa or Island nations
This is fanfiction. China isn't practicing neocolonialism in Africa, it's engaging in south-south trade that is actually helping African countries escape the trappings of western imperialism. Taiwan was invaded by the KMT when they lost the war, and took over the island. The Xinjiang and Tibet are both doing well and support the PRC, and Hong Kong is gradually doing better now that they aren't under British colonial rule. Vietnam is a strong trade partner with China.
