Modern languages ranging from Japanese and Korean to Turkish and Mongolian may share a common ancestor from ancient China around 9,000 years ago, according to a new study.
An international team of researchers said languages from the Transeurasian family, also known as Altaic, could be traced back to early millet farmers in the Liao valley in what is now northeast China and its spread was driven by agriculture.

Now they want south china sea. These seizure will continue because nobody lifted a finger in protest.

after ww2, USA told ROC to state its south china sea territory map. in 1947, USA acknowledged ROC territory claims there. PRC territory claims in south china sea in present time is based on the 1947 ROC claims which is accepted by USA back then.
