No, this is incorrect. China was a bunch of kingdoms, constantly at war with each other for longer than it’s ever been forcibly “united” by external forces, such as the Western powers in the 19th century, dividing up and ruthlessly controlling economic spheres of influence. It’s fascinating how ethnic, religious and cultural differences have been manipulated by so many governments for so long to feed their pockets and it isn’t over. The CCP is going to be nothing but a footnote in a research paper someday.
