Conceding

[edit]

According to scholar Taylor Fravel, this involved China conceding to Myanmar 1,000 square kilometres of territory. - Wow. TrangaBellam (talk) 20:04, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yup. That is Taylor Fravel for you! -- Kautilya3 (talk) 23:36, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A little tidbit from my notebook:

Finally, the Chinese argue that the eastern sector of the Sino-Indian border should be the traditional ethnic boundary [Outer Line?] separating the hill people of Mongoloid stock, who speak a Tibetan-Burmese dialect, from the Indians whom they consider as people of the plains.[1]

This argument obviously doesn't work against Burma! -- Kautilya3 (talk) 23:45, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That is Taylor Fravel for you!— ?? — That is China for you! — This shouldn't be been in isolation. A micro as well as a macro view helps as Fravel points out. DTM (talk) 09:09, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
An honest historian would assess whether those Chinese claims had any merit in the first place. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 10:36, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
