Why is it this board and history research in General is so one sided to the west?

To me it seems Eastern History is much more interesting and has so much to it, seeing their evolution. They had so much technology being invented and while Europe was diddle fucking around with feudalism Earthquake sensing machines were being built.

So lets discuss not just Chinese but eastern civilization in general, as to not come into conflict with sanguo thread lets have any discussion about china away from that thread's topic.

This board is pretty much filled with chinkaboos me being one of them. Hell, even halfchan's /his/ have engaging discussions about Oriental civilizations.

Unless you are a weeb, because to my experience. people like shitting on japan both here and on half/his/ to an extent

>They had so much technology being invented and while Europe was diddle fucking around with feudalism Earthquake sensing machines were being built.

The same could be said for the east more or less…

I hate what autistic weabs have done to trying to learn more about Japanese culture. I'm actually interested in Japanese history and culture because I like learning about it just like anything else but the moment you pick up anything about Japanese history/culture you might as well be pic related in everyones eyes.

Dunno where you were for the mongol invasion of /his/ man.

Mongols nearly overtook the Romeaboos. Ever since then Romeaboos have been a bit quieter about it. The mongols are still prevalent but not nearly to the extent that they were.

>and Korea

The Manchu tried to annex it twice, but generally speaking, Korea was considered to be under China's sphere of influence anyway, at least until the Japanese took over in the 20th century.

Despite of the fact that the People's Republic of China still backs North Korea nowadays, I find it difficult to believe that they are particularly happy with the rulership of the Kim clan. Were South Korea not a vassal of the United States, they'd probably have dropped the regime years, if not decades ago.

because this board is full of white people, so it shouldn't be surprising that they downplay or ignore the history of other people in favor of their own.

>Why is it this board and history research in General is so one sided to the west?

As >>33350 said in a disturbingly SJWish way, this is an English-speaking forum, and it's normal for people to be interested in the past of the place they and their relatives live in. Also it's much easier to find information about the West in the West, to read sources in the original language etc.

>To me it seems Eastern History is much more interesting and has so much to it, seeing their evolution.

I find it boring. Fite me irl.

>They had so much technology being invented and while Europe was diddle fucking around with feudalism Earthquake sensing machines were being built.

And without China you're left with a MONGOL THREAD.

Most people here are from the west. Maybe not >white, but have been raised in a western culture. We discuss what is familiar to us.

That said, feel free to educate us OP. Try starting a thread on Eastern history that might spark discussion. It's up to you to make a difference, OP.

Justinian was okay but he couldn't see the big picture very well.

If he had put more effort into the empires treasury and cut some corners here and there (like for instance give up on trying to make super expensive investments that would only pay back much later).

Other than that good emperor, just fucked things up for his successors.

Because we're western. Because we believe in progress; social, technological and exploration. Things ching chongs know nothing about as they mostly keep stable but stagnating societies.

Dont despair, the fins also have been left out, even though theyve got a great culture.

Now while cuckorean has a nice ring to it, you might do something against it and explain to me what the core differences between muism and shinto are.

The japs tried to replace your religion, before the protestants got the same idea, so there must have been some differences beyond "my gods are cooler then your gods".

it's because of that is why Western culture is so cuckholdy nowadays. If things had stayed in the 1950's culture things would be much better than they are today.
