  1. There's also an Islamic Kingdom of Yunnan/Dali Sultanate/Pingnan state which existed in 19th century China for a few years around the same time as Taiping Rebellion in which a Hui Muslim started an anti-Qing rebellion and tried to establish an independent Yunnan country from China, he even tried to sought support from the British. (which failed and the kingdom was destroyed by the Qing after they dealt with the Taiping)

    Yunnan actually used to be an independent kingdom called Dali Kingdom until it was conquered by the Mongols and eventually incorporated into the Yuan Dynasty of China.

  2. F*ck me Qing Dynasty is not chinese they're very different than chinese. Qings are Manchurians we say:
    Манж гүрэн, Манжчин гүрэн, Чин улс(qing dynasty)

  3. The hyperbolic original text made it sound that dzunger was exterminated.

    Some survived ans some were killed. Dzunger wasnt a ethnic or nation in that sense. They are mongols. The survivors were scattered to other tribes.

    I ll write out what the original text said when i have time and why its problematic .

  4. Also:

    The Kumul Khanate, a Uyghur state that managed to maintain its autonomy through the Qing Dynasty and ROC rule

    Yettishar or Kashgaria, an Islamic state in what is now southern Xinjiang founded by Yakub Beg, a conquerer from Kokand (in modern Uzbekistan)

    Tunganistan, a short-lived country in what is now Xinjiang founded by ethnic Hui (Dungan/Tungan) Muslim rebels during the Chinese Civil War

    Middag, a large conglomerate of indigenous villages on Taiwan prior to Qing conquest.

    Also many other pre-colonial indigenous polities in Taiwan such as Pimaba, Sapat, Takabolder, Cardeman, Tokodekal, Pukkal, Percuzi, Pergunu, and many other small independent villages

  5. Comments here are some of the most disturbing ones I've read, right after american white supremecists it seems that chinese supremecist are the most brutal and evil willed at least from what they say…. sad to see so much will for Violence. I do hope that people will change

  6. Insight about Viet people and "Vietnam" country which not well taught/written. The ancestor of Vietnam country today live in south of "Jiang" river now China and northern part of Vietnam "Hanoi", the country is Van Lang/Au Lac. "Bach Viet or Chinese Bai Yue" translate as many Viet states such as the U.S. with 50 states and one of the state is Vang Lang/Au Lac and today is Vietnam. As each Viet state fall to invader, "Van Lang" still able to retain some of their ancestor territory and expand southward as what Vietnam today. Let say Russia take all US states except for California, we California people still call ourselves as American, just like Vietnam call themselves as Viet.

  7. You should understand the positions of these so-called countries and organizations. It is very disturbing that your video clearly supports separatism and terrorism.
