Something to brag about in Chinese history.

 1. It is an ancient civilization, and Gojoseon is said to have a long history, but honestly, it did not go far beyond the form of a village state. Egypt, India, and China (the Mesopotamia region is great in that it is the birthplace of human civilization, but I think it is a little behind the evolution into a "state"). 2. Not only in terms of Chinese cultural Confucius, Laozi, and Xunzi...In any case, it has achieved high cultural achievements in various ways (at a level that is not inferior to ancient Greece) and its culture is still affecting not only China but also East Asia. 3. Han, Tang, Ming, and Qing (It is correct to say that the Manchurians have now become Chinese) All four of the above countries were the world's strongest at their peak. Rome, which we consider so great, is hard to determine superiority and inferiority compared to the Han Dynasty, and Tang Dynasty was the best country among the countries dominated by the former monarch to borrow Nehru's words. In fact, China accounted for 50% of the world's economy during the Ming and Qing dynasties, and military power and population often had a large influence on world history, which is equivalent to or overwhelming the sum of Europe. The fact that the Turks and Huns, who terrified Europe and Islam, were each beaten and fled by China... 5. Technology level China's practical science and technology have almost always been the best in the world. It is no exaggeration to say that before modern times began in earnest in Europe, only the Greek/Roman and Islamic world in its heyday had the same level of technology as China. However, although they were much clumsy in maximizing the efficiency of the technology compared to Europe, some people may think that they are the leader of the East, but honestly, it is undeniable that China has been the leader of the East since Qin Shi Huang...It is no exaggeration to say that the immigrants who overpowered China dominated the East unless it was China. Except for a few cases, including the Mongolians, most of the immigrants who invaded China became Chinese... It is not about distinguishing the superiority and inferiority of civilization. Because everyone has different perspectives) but to discuss only with influence and apparent power, Chinese civilization certainly occupies an unrivaled position in world history. Just as Greek/Roman civilization is half that of the West and it is difficult to imagine the Middle East world without Islamic civilization. Was there any country located in the East that was free from China's influence? Except for the Indian civilization, which was close to China,
