Because China believes Taiwan belongs to it, China’s been preparing its military for the specific task of taking it over. It now has a strategy designed to overwhelm Taiwan before the US can intervene. Our new channel, Search Party, explains how Taiwan and the US are working to update their strategy before it's too late. WATCH NOW: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aLedfL2UueCxl4E.htmlsi=ycANU38a5BR_DhWJ

The land he called as being "CONTROLLED" by China (in Kashmir region) was the one that didnt belong to China before, but is controlled by it now. But the land that he said "BELONGS" to India (Arunachal Pradesh) is a state which has been a rightful part of the Indian territory since its independence, ocuupied by Indian citizens and the claim by China is nonsense with no backing. They already have problems with their claim to tibet which is disputed, let alone this so called south tibet of theirs lol. As he commented, wishful thinking. China is doing this just to satisfy their vain ego, assert their power and pressurize India.

@halfmooner9977 2 ай бұрын

@@lamewater772 The concept of a nation's "legal" territory is inherently subject to change over history, wars, and various events. If you firmly believe that a specific area objectively belongs to a certain country, you should take a look at the extent of China's Yuan dynasty's territory. The territories we discuss as "disputed" indicate that the narrator should not have any bias regarding their ownership. When you presuppose that a place strictly "belongs" to a particular country, your understanding of the word "disputed" has already been skewed. What you are doing is merely reinforcing and justifying your pre-existing stance with that same stance.

According to your interpretation that the tenth dash line was added recently in this update. However, when I searched for maps published in 2019 and 2016, both maps already showed the tenth dash line next to Taiwan. Therefore it’s not a sudden change but a constant effort for Beijing to acclaim Taiwan as part of China.

Myanmar-China fence was built to mostly prevent drug trade in that region. During WW2, ROC sent troops to Myanmar to fight Japanese, but as KMT was defeated by the commies soon after WW2, some of KMT's land forces retreated into the forest in northern Myanmar. After KMT fled to Taiwan, it couldn't afford maintaining supply and logistics of this military presence in Myanmar, and (I might be wrong here) subsequently decommissioned these regiments. However, instead of letting them to surrender to PRC or bring them to Taiwan, they just left them in Myanmar. These militants became the local warlords and started to grow poppies to finance/support themselves. Note, these aren't from creditable sources because it's a dark history for both sides. The true stories are covered by both sides. Only rumors and tales told by people from that region.

But there are hundreds of thousands of drug dealers, illegal gambling, smuggle and even deal of organs are prevailing in this area, I knew some people who live near this border and is constantly harassed by warlords' troops and threatened, it's just a place of chaos, it's common to have small war there. As China is extremely strict on drugs due to its past history more than 100 years ago, the wall makes it harder for drugs to go into China as well as smuggle.

This video characterizes China as a land grabber, which is not surprising. I think even people with scant knowledge of China know that premodern China has never been a land-grabbing belligerent. What they really mean is that Communist China is a land grabber. But is it? Communist China's territorial management has been studied by Taylor Fravel, a political scientist at MIT, who published a book called "Strong Borders, Secure Nation," concluding that Communist China is a land conceder and has not land-grabbed any of its neighbors. Taylor Fravel is a China hawk, so even he has admitted that China is not a land grabber. There is a land grabber by the way and that is India. Today, the territory of India is much bigger than it was in 1947, and all the land it acquired was through invasion and subjugation. You should find out how India's 'Seven Sister States' became part of India. Talking about maps in 1912, the first full year of the Republic of China (nowadays usually referred to as Taiwan) after the fall of the Qing dynasty, the United States National Geographic Society dedicated an issue on China and with the issue it included a very large and detailed foldout map of China. If you go to the area close to Bhutan, you can see the town of Tawang and the surrounding area, which is clearly within China. Today, Tawang is occupied by India, and the surrounding area is called Arunachal Pradesh by India. In fact, as late as the late 1940s after World War II, the flag of the Republic of China (nowadays usually referred to as Taiwan) was flying high in Tawang. Today, it is the Indian flag that is flying there. And India is still promoting the narrative that India is a hapless victim of an expansionist China.

I think there is a major point missing in this video: Namely, that almost all of these territorial disputes have not simply been created by China’s Communist Party, but have been inherited (and later exacerbated) from the Chinese Republic and to some degree from the Qing era. These border conflicts are the result of the absolute mess that we call the 20th century, and unfortunately the video doesn’t really reflect that. By watching, one instead gets the feeling that these disputes have mainly been orchestrated by the modern Chinese government. And while there are plenty of gross violations of international laws and norms that one can lay onto Beijing’s feet, these border disputes have a far more complicated story than that. I also think that this outlook on China’s border conflicts actually minimizes the gravity of the situation, because one gets the feeling that if China was to become a democracy overnight, these problems would go away. Unfortunately, they would not, which may be exemplified by the fact that Taiwan holds almost the same, if not larger territorial claims. Taiwan also argues that the 9 (or 11) dash line is valid - and it has shown little interest to compromise on this stance thus far. And while I understand the message of the video was to make a point about the political weight of creating maps, its still important to at least hint at the complexity and debatable story behind these disputes - even if there is no time to explain them in a short video, which is of course understandable.

Funny facts, China's territorial disputes with countries along the Himalayas stem from the borders that Britain arbitrarily drew on a map when it withdrew from colonizing Indochina (Pakistan and India's conflicts are due to the same reason). And the root cause of China's territorial disputes in the South China Sea is also due to the geopolitical needs of the United States to carve up the world at the end of the Second World War. As for Taiwan, it was included in China's jurisdiction eight centuries ago until it was colonized by Japan in World War II. As a youtuber, there is so much history you need to catch up on.

Second, the territory of the East India Company that India illegally inherited has never belonged to India in history. Even India was the only regime to annex a sovereign country after World War II. India illegally annexed Sikkim. Third, the United States is the first country in the world to recognize China’s maritime territory in the South China Sea. In order to allow the Republic of China to fight against the Japanese Empire in the South China Sea, the United States proactively recognized the South China Sea.

1. The tenth dash line in the South China Sea has always existed; it's just that the previous maps were horizontal, and the South China Sea was displayed in a small section, where only nine dashes could be seen. The old version with Taiwan included has been available, so wouldn't it be reasonable to consult the old version map before making a video? 2. Originally, there were 11 dashes in the South China Sea, but due to the clear demarcation of the boundary between China and Vietnam in the northern Gulf, it was canceled. 3. When the eleven-dash line was drawn in the South China Sea, the surrounding countries were still colonies. If we really want to discuss it, their countries were established around China, rather than the eleven-dash line extending to their surroundings. As a victorious country in World War II, the South China Sea was within China's sphere of influence at that time (supported by navigation maps and historical records), and it was tacitly approved by the United States and others. Just because China is now a communist country and not your Western ally doesn't mean you can ignore historical facts. 4. There has always been a traditional customary line in the southern Tibet region, and the Chinese government (since the Republic of China) has never recognized the McMahon Line (falsified by the British government in 1935). Regarding the Sino-Indian issue, I suggest you look into the Sino-Indian War of the 1960s to understand who invaded whom and who initiated the war. India not only invaded Chinese territory beyond the traditional customary line but also crossed the McMahon Line before China counterattacked. 5. Taiwan (Republic of China government) used to make claims about the mainland, or it would be more accurate to say that the Republic of China government's claims were broader. This included present-day Mongolia, parts of the far northwest (part of West Asian countries), the Tannu Uriankhai (now the Tuva Republic of Russia). The Republic of China government also claimed that the Diaoyu Islands belonged to China.

@@venanziadorromatagni1641 What is missed, is the terrain in this flat plain is above 15,000 feet (4.5 km) high, unlike any other place on continents elsewhere. It creates huge physiological (& psychological) problems. In all wars, from times immemorial till modern times, it is the troops on land, that hold the land for that country. 1962 war proved it. Air force's role is secondary & as pressure point sea-warfare is tertiary. It is the will of men on ground to hold that ground that is crucial. Galwan incident amply proved it. At these altitudes (& in winter particularly) aircraft may not take off & tanks may not move. The will hold the land was not there in the Indian Army in 1962 (though a heroic bunch of 105 defying orders of superior officers)held the ground at Rezang la. In the heap of bodies taken as dead, 5 soldiers were found alive. This time too PLA made repeated forays to take it but couldn't (his time Tibetans with Indian Army did it). India still possesses tactical advantages. Helicopters that are taken for granted, to land or pick soldiers & supplies, as made in the West are useless (Chinook & Apache of American make have service ceiling of 6km - there is no need to for them - while terrain demands higher performance). India saw that need & has to design own helicopters. In 1962, C-113 packet couldn't land or take off. Indian aircraft factory put a "jet pack" on top, to compensate for lower performance at these high altitudes. I heard that 18 ton "light" tanks with parachutes tied to each corner were dropped from air, as it is insane to ask for roads here. Many of them got reduced to heaps of metals & were cannibalised for those who were still mobile. It is a multi-dimensional warfare here, that if I start writing it'll become a book. Let someone write (not me). In these skirmishes (by the dozen) both sides can't use fire-arms as per pacts made as PRC claims that India is a friendly country after 4 decades of bloody incidents (only in 1990s the then Indian Defence minister, George Fernandes declared that PRC is India's No.1 enemy relegating Pakistan to a minor place). So one sees a comic show of troops from both sides doing Sumo-wrestling at altitudes higher than M. Denali - at times with a contrived smile on faces. It is painful that reminds Albert Einstein prophecy of WW III. It seems that one of the goals in their 5 year plans is (how much)territory acquired that year from the neighbour ! Chinese are inscrutable & have no doubts about it.

You often mentioned the international law in places where China breaks it, but when it came to Taiwan you just said it has been independent for decades, which in practice is was, but according to international law - it is not independent at all and it actually is a part of China, regardless of what political system one recognizes as the ruling one over China, which in practice is the CCP.

⁠⁠⁠@@DavidMaldonadoR Taiwan government in 1950s lost the civil war with the current Mainland government, and they shamelessly ask US to bomb Chinese people with atomic weapons instead of fight back with their regular forces for “justice”. I don’t understand who’s really bullying the Chinese people and who’s actually protecting them from invasion of foreign imperialist. US knew that bombing your own people is absurd and unacceptable, they refused the stupid request and asked Taiwan to accept their failure. No need to mention the Chiang Kai Shek government constantly refuse and intentionally undermining China’s peace and democratization process. US in 1945 was helping the KMT in democratisation process, but Chiang Kai Shek only wants to be another new emperor and rule. The current independent idea of Taiwan has no historical background, political evidence and diplomatic support from most countries of the world, which means no body support Taiwan for independence internationally. Not because people are afraid of China or other bullshit, because Taiwan government was a piece of shit and it’s still like this, so no other country is happy that he’s back in UN and make everyone unhappy. And no legal reason or evidence in supporting the independence of Taiwan. The fun fact: if Taiwan should independent, then Northern Ireland should be independent from UK too. Because a simply fact: UK government was bullying Irish people and a part of Ireland is already independent. The Northern Ireland is a sign of colonialism and imperialism. Why American people don’t go to help Irish people to fight for their legal rights?

@@Xiezi_0125 Your claim just doesn't make sense at all. Even after the chinese civil war ended and PRC gained total control over chinese mainland, United Nations kept denying that PRC is a lawful representative for Chinese people. And when PRC slowly re-gained global power with its military and world's biggest market, UN declared that PRC is a representative of chinese people. Not even a single country cut diplomatic ties with taiwan just because ROC is a piece of shit. That's just because they are scared of economic backlash. It's even nonsense to compare northern ireland to Taiwan. Northern Irish and British government officials signed 'Belfast Agreement' which makes northern ireland still be a part of UK. Taiwanese problem is totally different thing. And It's kinda reality that Taiwan is de facto independent country. I'm not saying that Taiwan is completely independent and international community broadly accepted it, but i just wanted to point out that your opinion contains a bit of misinformation and biased point of view.

There had been human trafficking happening around the boarder. Many Chinese men and women are kidnapped to Myanmar and subsequently into force labor or even killed. 3. Drug smuggling. The Chinese government AND people had been 0-tolerant about drugs and are determined to stop it.

Great video, as always Johnny. I do notice one small flaw, though. In the South China Sea sections, you are accurate that China also has disputes with other countries bordering the South China Sea: Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam. However, there is one other country that also has disputes with the Nine-dash Line: Indonesia (my home country). The disputes with the other countries are mostly regarding the Spratly Islands, but not with Indonesia. So, Indonesia’s EEZ in the South China Sea overlaps with the Nine-dash Line, which is the source of the tension; I watched a video when Indonesia was planting an oil rig, presumably close to the Nine-dash Line (whereas it is within Indonesia's own waters), and that Chinese vessels were sent to patrol the site.

Yet, in 1950s, PRC built a road across Aksai Chin (that the Indian authorities hadn't got even a smell of it), nomenclature-d as G219 in their maps - to connect Tibet with Xinjiang.

If you know that the northern part of Myanmar is not controlled by the Myanmar government at all, There are drug dealers and fraud dens inside, they have their defense force and weapon, so you should understand the good intentions of this wall. If you are a local ethnic minority, you can apply for a border permit to travel to northern Myanmar to meet your ethnic group. It does not represent cultural division.

@2plus2equals98 Yes, even in legends & mythology. The cultural bonds are too deep. We are a two weeks away from the coming Diwali (Deepavali, meaning an array of lights). The legend (mythology) is this. The region around River Brahmaputra was known as Prag`jyotisha pura (Eastern Zodiacal town) ruled by a demons king, Naraka. Lord Krishna to subdue him & release the people from his tyranny went there riding his mount, the eagle "Garuda" (now the mascot of Indonesian Airways). His favourite wife "Sathya" said she'd accompany him. So, the couple went & engaged in a battle with Naraka`asura, who was well-protected by the forces of nature. After a while Krishna was hit by an arrow that made him unconscious. Then a furious Sathya took the bow & shot a row of arrows that killed Naraka`asura. Then Krishna was revived. It could be that Naraka`asura gazing at Sathya, he has forgotten about the battle he was engaged in. The killing of Naraka`asura is observed a day before Diwali, with fire-crackers & such explosions to signify the war. He freed sixteen thousand & odd young "dames" the dead king imprisoned. Krishna told them to go to their respective families. But the crowd of young girls raised a cry & said "we're not going home". Krishna asked "why?". They said they wouldn't be accepted by their parents, being prisoners of someone & that they didn't accept. It is a matter of their honour or chastity. There was an argument. Finally, the girls pointed a way out that would restore their esteem (or respect). They wanted Krishna (who has 8 wives) to marry them all, as that would also enhance their status of Krishna's wives that the people would respect. Krishna did that & returned home to Dwaraka, some 2000 km to the west. Flippant & even lewd comments are made on this act of Krishna without realising the honour that was restored to the girls. Even now Krishna cult is predominant in Brahmaputra valley & in Manipur (Jewel city) predominantly . Another character, the main hero in Maha`Bharata war, Arjuna (comparable to Ulysses in Greek mythology) committed a small mistake & as penance had to leave home (& his four brothers). He came to Manipur & the princess there, Ulupi fell in love with him & married. A son was born to them, even. After the stipulated time Arjuna returned home. The war started soon after.

It's very very generalised. North-East region is generalised as a single whole, when it is not that way historically. Far from it. Even Arunachal Pradesh itself has different regions with different historical narratives, some associated with India(mainly the plains of current Northern Assam), but many if not most are not. The northwestern corner has historical ties with Tibet, that is what the media likes to focus on mostly, but that's only a corner of Arunachal Pradesh. In fact, most of the population reside on the inner central+eastern regions, which were independent and self-governed prior to British entry(often forcibly). Similarly, association with the Kirat very vague; they could have been Nepal, they could have been Bhutan, they could have been any Himalayan mountain dwelling group. That didn't provide the India the authority over it. I mean that in the nicest of ways. The true fact remains none of Tibet, China, or British India had a full control over the region initially. It was mostly independent. Tibet had trade ties, but was never in political control of the current whole region. British India made the first move to politically capture the land, they agreed the boundary with Tibet in a treaty which China pulled out of; British India marched ahead regardless of China's withdrawal. And hence the current mess. Source: I'm from Arunachal Pradesh, and my great great grandfather was one of the leading representatives in first colonial contact with our tribe(far back as 19th century). Even pictorially documented by the British Raj and published by Stuart Blackburn.
