How France maintains its grip on Africa

Ethiopia was never colonized by Italy. It was only under a brief occupation.

Nobody is saying China in its entirety was colonized however, it did face Dutch and British colonization and even the Portuguese

Ming China leased Macau as a trading post to the Portuguese in 1557. I really can't see how that can be compared to the colonisation faced by Africa.

Not true the Italians got in there for a short period but lost it all due to WW2

British took it forcefully not a lease lol, also colonization is colonization, we’re not arguing which one was more severe and to what extant it was colonized

Japan was the one under Dutch influence, not China. As far as I know, it was just the Brits and Portuguese.

The Brits didn't colonize them, they only forced the Chinese to buy their drugs, lol.

The fact that he thinks the Portugese and the Dutch colonized China just shows his ignorance.

Ming China leased Macau to the Portugese as a trading post in 1557.

And the Dutch? Taiwan was one of the first places in East Asia to be taken/conquered by a European power, and the Chinese simply took it off the Dutch and kept Dutch women as sex slaves.

The Dutch had a big influence on the Japanese. The Japanese still call Western knowledge as Dutch. Perhaps he is messing that up.

Look up Macau and Hong Kong on this map vs the size of the rest of China.

China is a threat to the west's control of africa

@Tukraq

It's ridiculous to claim that China was colonised by the Europeans when in reality only a few long-term leases on some ports were forcefully acquired after a series of Wars against the Chinese.

If we go by that dumb logic then we can claim the whole UK was occupied by the Germans in WW2 via the occupation of the Chanel Islands.

Japan controlled china's main cities before ww2

Same damn thing just like how landers say we were a country but their british masters let them go to join other soon to be freed somalis

 

[CaliTedesse]

China was raped by Japan and colonized and in return China raped Tibet and East Turkistan and conquered those lands. He forgot to mention that Morocco and Algeria and Tunesia the North African wh0res are also French slaves

Japan controlled china's main cities before ww2

That was more akin to occupation sxb.

The only part of today's China that was colonised by a foreign power was Manchuria, however Manchuria at the time was not considered "China" and was seen as a separate country. Imperial Japan successfully colonised Manchuria & became the bread-basket of their Empire.
