    That’s not really true, though. That region has undergone numerous cycles of fragmentation and reunification over that period of time, with different cultures and different dynasties taking over from each other.

      i’m not backtracking, i promise

      but when you’re dealing with cunts like trump, do facts really matter more than big numbers?

          i don’t know what you’re talking about. is there any doubt that china’s been around for thousands of years? is there any doubt that china’s a lot more well-prepared to weather what wharton’s dumbest fucking student can’t figure out?

              wow, thank you for teaching me something new today. now you’ve got me thinking why i made that assumption with so much confidence. the first think i think of is the terracotta army - they’re about 2200 years old. i hear the “5000 years old” number thrown around a lot when talking about the great pyramid. i’ve seen some stuff that i thought was really cool about possible ancient pyramids in china. but i also wonder how much propaganda snuck in there along the way, too.

              my last sentence still stands, though :P
