Does it looks like that to you? I would say they have unparallelled cultural and civilisational continuity rarily seen in any other place. And feudal empires falling is not the gotcha you think it is, especially when you look at the absolute clusterfuck in Europe (or many other places too).

Also nice deflection.

You made your point dating to the shang, and I dont disagree. Even more, you're right, feudal empires falling isn't a gotcha.

So what about a modern state being violently overthrown? Or is this different because one violent, illegiment warlord championed "the people", and proceeded to starve 200* million of them after taking power?

Which one of these two states still maintains democratic or republican ideals for the people, a reminder that real Legitimacy lay with the people.

Sorry. Just a measley 50 million people mb. Still the worst famine in history. And 100% preventable.
