Why does India covet Tibet? At what point did India ever had Tibet as one of it's kingdoms and or territory? I am quite puzzled by their greed and expansionist ambition towards China's Tibet.

Akhand Bharat is the pretence for the nationalists but the ulterior motive is likely the water that flows from Tibet. Specifically, the water that supplies all the major rivers into India and the Chinese dams that were built in Tibet. Hindu nationalists fully controlling the Tibetan plateau also means they can start screwing with the water that flows into central China for leverage.

Lol what in the world. Greece influenced Rome heavily which means Greece actually colonized Rome and therefore Greece has a claim on the vast territories of continental Europe and America?
This may seem absurd, but as a Chinese, I have seen too many such unrealistic ambitious individuals.
For example, the 16 unrelated "ancestors" of the Turks, they even claimed that their ancestors were Huns, and the Chinese built the Great Wall to resist the great ancestors of the Turks, which demonstrated the strength of the Turks and their territorial demands on the Mongolian grasslands and the whole western China.
This is what they wrote in the textbook, unbelievable, isn't it? In the definition of Turks, all nationalities that have been active in the Mongolian grassland are Turks' ancestors.

Maybe in the eyes of others, this is just something that a madman would say, but Turkey has actually taken action against China. But this is another topic, and you also know what they have done.

South Koreans are not much better either. They claim to belong to the "Dong Yi people", but this, like the "Germanic" in the eyes of Rome, is not a true ethnic group. But this does not prevent those fanatical nationalists from claiming that Shandong and Northeast China are part of their history.

As for India, his goal is to conquer all regions influenced by Indian culture, including those influenced by Buddhist culture.

If these clowns are just daydreaming, then we won't feel angry. The problem is that these crazy people have a very strong willingness to take action(no, strictly speaking, they have indeed taken action in various fields).

I see on Chinese language anti-China reddits use this word as a nick name for Xi Jinping. Its called "平子", which google translate convert in English to Pingzi.

What does Pingzi mean?

The two generals were almost certainly corrupt but I'm not convinced Qin didn't just die or become disabled by disease.
子 is a dimunitive, so 平子 is a diminutive of 习近平.
子 is often a suffix used by parents when referring to their children by name, so it's very weird to me that Chinese liberals would set upon it as a derogative term for Xi. He's almost 70 years old it just doesn't work.

Chinese liberals also think that living in a tent in the US while scrubbing dishes is a great honor so…
