Gotta say, using 3 just feels like giving up due to laziness, even in 1200BC.
Also it’s interesting how the Chinese entries basically stop between 1400 and 1949, whereas European names are far more present during this era. Some Japanese ones, too. I wonder how comprehensive this page is.
I mean, true, but that doesn’t contradict what I wrote, does it? I objected to that particular part of kshades argument, not their argument as a whole.
Taiwan was never part of current China though
The same was true for East and West Germany and that, err, merger is generally considered to be a reunification.
But I agree with the rest you wrote, so I guess it’s a moot point anway.
I mean, technically there would be more direct measures, like using artillery to blow up infrastructure or destroying crop with flamethrowers.
