    So China has existed for 5000 years but America has only existed since white peoples decided to start a government? Or are you cool with Native Americans claiming 50,000 years?

      The Chinese people lived in China prior to the PRC. The same is not true for the European colonialists.

          We’re talking about the United States, not Americans. The people that created the United States were not Americans. They were Europeans. They didn’t begin to settle here until the 17th century. The Chinese didn’t immigrate to China to found the PRC.

            No. We are talking about China and I asked a specific question. Now you are bordering on being racist.
