Qin your Si Lang Tao! That's the dynasty when China was most littered with corpses and heads. The golden era of China was Tang Dynasty under Li Shimin. Even Japan acknowleged Tang China as superior and supreme.

Tokugawa Ieyasu's Edo shogunate wasn't too bad, but Japan's golden era was as recent as the 1980s.

when too many die from building the great wall, it was called the deadly era, not golden. golden was when art and culture flourished due to peace, happiness and a healthy economy... which usually translated to females having a lot of say about who, where and when they wanted to have sex with.

Great Wall your kepala mati vacuum cranium cavity! :oIo:
GMS' great*x granduncle Wu Sangui opened the gate for Manchurians and China was overrun. Anyway, coward scared, dared not fight, then built wall. Even before the Manchurians, did it stop Jin or Mongolia? Nah! :oIo:
Ever wonder why Chinese nowadays are known as Tang people, not Qin people?

You obviously don't know what you are talking about. The Qin Emperor is not even considered as one of the greatest emperors of China. The greatest emperors of China are generally considered to be Emperor Wu of Han(漢武帝) Liu Che, Emperor Kangxi(康熙帝) of the Qing Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty(唐太宗)

The Tang Dynasty was the golden era in Chinese history, the rise in arts & literature but there was an over production of imperial graduates; which the admintsration couldn't find jobs for so many of them. This was also the golden era of 'yellow books', & if my memory of mu history studying days, one of the Tang emperor was murdered while reading 'yellow books'. He was so well guarded that they steamed the poison onto the paper, set up a stall on his route back to the palace, selling 'yellow books'. In the olden days, you lick your fingers while flipping the pages when you are reading books & that was a habit, that killed him. This was also the time of military prowness, I think.

Was that famous historian, SiMa something from the Tang Dynasty??

I thought we are called the Han people??

I agree with you, that The Great Wall of China is 'no horse run', a man made structures that can be seen from space. The Great Wall of china is also known as the Chinese Sorrows, thousands & thousands conscripted workers died, building that wall; in which traitors open the gates for the babarians to come in.

Chinese worldwide are called 唐人 。

汉人 is only used in China to distinguish Han from Manchurians.

唐人 includes both Han and Manchurians.

Another use of the reference to 汉 is of course the language, as in 汉语拼音。

Both Japan and Korea who borrowed Chinese characters acknowledge them as 汉（漢） too.

Got your point...we are not Machurians...we are HAN!!,no the hylam HANS they are also Han....

My specialty studies was Modern Chinese History, starting from on or before the Taiping Rebellion, through the formation of, "Chung Hua Ming Guo", the warlords period, KMT & the rise of CCP. Then, the study on Chinese communism throughout SEA, plus the migration of the Chinese to Nanyang & elsewhere.

The relationship between Manchuria and China from Tang to Ming dynasties was like Scotland and England as part of UK. Manchuria overrunning and taking over China wasn't considered a foreign invasion. In fact, many high ranking Han (Ming officials) supported that shift of power and change of government in view of the decadence of the late Ming period. It was just civil war, just like PRC v. ROC. Manchurians are half-blooded Han and half-blooded Jin if traced back to the Warring State of Zhao.

Actually the tomb of Qin Emperor(the Terracota Army) is generally considered to be more impressive(by the ang mohs) then the great wall and the great wall we know today is actually constructed during the Ming Dynasty(2nd last dynasty). The one that the Qin Emperor built was closer to that of a m&d wall then the brick wall we see today

The Great Wall actually started with many separate walls during the Warring States period. After Qin Shihuang conquered all the states and united China, he started the project to link them up into one single wall. It fell into disuse in subsequent dynasties as it wasn't logistically feasible to station army all along the wall so long. Only a few vital points were guarded. The experience of defeat of Song Dynasty in the hands of Jin and Mongolia prompted Ming Dynasty to relook at the Great Wall policy. It was extensively renovated and reinforced and guarded at more points.

However, the crucial keyholder to the first gate north-east, Wu Sangui (great*x uncle of GMS), opened the gate for the Manchurian army to march in unopposed. He was promoted by the succeeding Qing Dynasty from Field Marshal to Prince of Yunnan, a politically compromising move to remove him from his powerbase in the north (Yunnan is in southern China). At the reign of the 2nd Qing Emperor Kangxi, WSG revolted again but failed. Some of his surviving kins fled to Hainan and became Hainanese.

Half-blood prince.. I think I have wade through all these, in my ancient Chinese history study, like I had mentioned, I chose Modern Chinese history; that is why what ever you had mentioned, does ring a bell in my head.

Many people ignorant to the fact, thought that the great wall was built in ONE DAY...it was like you had mentioned, seperate walls built over a certain period.

You are saying WSG descendants fled to Hainan dou, & the Hylams are 'traitors'....so GMS Hainanese, same as that Hylam shortie MBT..."su ma bo but ti"...
