I doubt any of you, without looking it up, could name pic related province of China or any city/place in it. You couldn't say anything (besides the generically Chinese) of what goes on there now, or has gone on in its history. You can't name a single person ever from there, any invention that comes from there, or any impact it's had on the world at all.
Yet there are A HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE there.
>that's as many as the UK and Canada combined >as many as live in the entire Western half of the United States >as many as in Germany and all of Scandinavia together
It has a TRILLION DOLLAR economy to boot.
Why is China so poorly understood?

I think Shanghai is further down
Levi Murphy
Shanghai is approximately located at the estuary of the Yangtze River

I guess that means it's were Tsingtao comes from, so it's got one claim to fame.

>any invention that comes from there does Intel outsourcing count?
Juan Phillips
That's getting pretty old Still younger than taiwan namba wan so it's still considered fresh though
Only good answer in this thread

Give me a reason to give a shit about present day China that doesn't have to do with military posturing, providing raw materials or manufacturing someone else's inventions.

because they are about to have as much economic clout as the united states and that they aren't democratic? a big change from the status quo.

qinghao tsingtao beer the only impact I can think of is that qinghao was once a german owned port for a while
it's a shame chinese philosophy seemingly died off or stopped developing at the amazing pace it once was after the period confucius and mozi lived in
James Morales
dont remember the name of the province but i know Qingdao is in it
Brayden Sanchez
Tsintao or Quindao. We taught them how to make beer.
