Problems and Analysis of the Created History of the People's Republic of China

 

 

  • The roots of the Han Chinese view of their nation are deep. It is no exaggeration to say that the beginning and development of Han Chinese history are a record of the conflict between the Han people and the foreign peoples. The original perspective of the Chinese people toward foreign peoples is the Huai ideology (華夷思想), which distinguishes between the Han Chinese (中華) and the Barbarians (夷狄), or the Huai ji hen (華夷之變). The Han people who created Han Chinese civilization were called "the Chinese", and the surrounding foreign peoples were called the barbarians, or barbarians, and were distinguished as the Dongyi (東夷 The other ethnic groups in the east who are good at archery), Xirong (西戎 The other ethnic groups in the west who are good at war), Nanman (南蠻 The other ethnic groups in the south who are like insects), and Beiji (北狄 The other ethnic groups in the south who are scary). This term was created during the Zhou Dynasty. However, the Zhou Dynasty was Xirong (西戎). In other words, the Han people of China are a mixed-blood group that was created.

  • This proves that other countries founded by other ethnic groups existed on the East Asian continent. However, the People's Republic of China had to create "A Newly Created History, a Fabricated History" that included "all the other countries founded by other ethnic groups that existed on the East Asian continent" as the previous dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, occupied most of the East Asian continent.

  • It goes without saying that the previous dynasties of present-day Korea and Japan were all treated as Dongyi. The ‘Huaijibyeon (華夷之變)’ is an extension of the logic that it is natural for the highly civilized Han Chinese to rule over the barbarian people, granting legitimacy to the rule of Han China. Dongyi (東夷) is not the same ethnic group as the Han Chinese. It is simply a regional name for people from another country.

  • Meanwhile, the Republic of China and the People's Republic of China have continued the tradition of a ruling system called "Da Yi Tong (大一統)" which is opposite to the "Hua Zhi Bian (華夷之變)." "The state regime of Da Yi Tong (大一統) is defined as an administrative management system in which one emperor and one government unify the ethnic groups within the territory of the Republic of China and the People's Republic of China." Da Yi Tong (大一統) was created as the ruling principle of the Chinese Empire that has been maintained continuously since the time when the Qin Shi Huang unified the country. Even during the days of the Chinese Nationalist government and the process of establishing the Chinese Communist Party regime, the logic of "Hua Zhi Bian (華夷之變)" and "Da Yi Tong (大一統)" were arbitrarily applied according to the needs of the Han Chinese. In particular, the keynote of the Communist Party's policy toward ethnic groups was thoroughly marked by deception strategies.

  • The Chinese Communist Party was initially very loyal to Marxism and actively supported the liberation of various ethnic groups under imperialist rule. In particular, Mao Zedong opposed the unification of China. Since his youth, he had called for his hometown, Hunan Province, to be turned into a “Hunan Republic.” Mao Zedong emphasized the “principle of self-determination of the peoples of each province” and argued that the best solution would be to divide each region of the People’s Republic of China into 27 countries. This argument was a reasonable logic for establishing countries with different histories in East Asia. At that time, the populations of the Manchu, Mongolian, and Han Chinese in the People’s Republic of China were similar (1949). More than 80% of the population were people without any genealogy. The Communist Party has incorporated 80% of the population who are not classified as any "ethnic group" into the Han Chinese, so Han Chinese are now the largest group in the population.

  • However, starting in 1939, Mao Zedong began to quietly hide his ‘free federal’ national plan and began to talk about the ‘Chinese people.’ In the end, the free federation system ended up becoming part of the national unity front strategy for the strengthening of the Communist Party.

  • Mao Zedong proposed ‘regional autonomy’ instead of a multi-ethnic free federation system. The line of Sun Yat-sen and Mao Zedong was established to incorporate the minority ethnic groups in the border areas into the ‘Chinese nation’ and grant them only ‘autonomy.’ The reappearance of ‘Great Unity’ and ‘Popularization’ by the rising Republic of China and the People’s Republic of China is not an unrelated issue to neighboring countries such as Korea and Japan, in that it strengthens the Sinocentrism centered on the Han Chinese people and stimulates the desire to infinitely expand the ‘Huayi order.’

  • In particular, the incorporation of Goguryeo’s history into the regime of China’s ethnic minorities is also an extension of the logic of ‘Huai Change.’ and ‘Great Unity.’

  • In particular, if the view of the Korean people as ‘Dongyi (東夷)’ is latent among the people of the People’s Republic of China, this could be a potential threat to both South Korea and North Korea. In the past, the Han Chinese defined Koreans as people from a completely different country and called them ‘Dongyi (東夷)’. However, after the People’s Republic of China was established, all people within the People’s Republic of China were defined as people from their own country. The Dongyi (東夷) people have lived on the East Asian continent for a long time, and among them, they migrated to Korea and Japan. Regardless of which country they lived in on the East Asian continent, the Dongyi (東夷) people continued to live within the People’s Republic of China as the Dongyi (東夷) people. Currently, the People’s Republic of China claims that all cultures of ethnic minorities are the culture of the People’s Republic of China, but the Dongyi (東夷) people are people of the People’s Republic of China, and this is clearly something that the people of South Korea, North Korea, and Japan should be very wary of.

  • South Koreans and North Koreans should keep in mind that if they continue to insist that we are the Dongyi (東夷) people, South Koreans and North Koreans could have a very dangerous future. That is, it is difficult to dismiss the concern that the People's Republic of China may intervene militarily in the event of a North Korean emergency and attempt to incorporate North Korea into the four northeastern provinces as just a story of some hypersensitive fantasists.

  • For reference, the various ethnic groups of the ancient East Asian continent were collectively called the Dongyi tribe (東夷族). It was also said that the Dongyi tribe included the Gui (九夷 Nine different other countries or tribes from Han Chinese people) and that they were also divided into the Yemaek tribe (濊貊族), the Malgal tribe (靺鞨族), the Han tribe (韓族), and the Wae tribe (倭族). The answer to the question of whether Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla were one ethnic group is as follows. In fact, the Yemaek tribe (or Buyeo tribe), the Malgal tribe, and some northern Xianbei and Huns tribes were included, so to be precise, this definition is not wrong. Some argue that "the Korean people are Dongyi tribe (東夷族). However, East Asian figures such as Chiyou (蚩尤), Confucius (孔子), and Emperor Shun (舜) were all Dongyi tribe (東夷族). Therefore, Chiyou (蚩尤), Confucius (孔子), and Emperor Shun (舜) are all ancestors of the Korean people." This argument was further expanded to the logic that the People's Republic of China mainland was originally Korean territory, which led to a historical dispute between netizens between the two countries and even escalated into a diplomatic issue. The concept of Dongyi tribe (東夷族) is not an unchanging 'fixed' concept, but a 'historical concept' that has changed over time in history. In conclusion, not all Dongyi people can be defined as Korean, but they are one of the roots of all Koreans, and they are a group that formed a different nation as a completely different ethnicity from the Han Chinese.
