Sure the Romans and the Vikings were badass but were eventually defeated and no longer exist as a warrior race. It's got to be the Chinese, they have always had a powerful warrior ethos and even though they were occupied at times in the past, they never have been defeated. [/quote] The Chinese have never been defeated? The Chinese have a powerful warrior ethos? Obviously you have not read much Chinese history. The Chinese have been defeated many times, the last Chinese Dynasty, the Manchu, was not Chinese, it was Manchurian and had seized the throne through conquest. The Mongels invaded and conquered China. Hell, the Vietnamese militia was more than a match for the PLA in the 1979 Sino-Vietnamese War. To be blunt, historically the professional soldier has been despised in Chinese culture, it was only with the PLA that some of this animosity has abated. It wasn't Chinese force of arms that saved Chinese culture, it was the fact that all the invaders were total barbarians and wanted to live in the advanced society the Chinese created, not destroy it. It was the same in the western Roman Empire, the invaders tried to preserve what they could because it was the most advanced civilisation in the World. [/quote] Japanese slaughtered Chinese in WW2. There is a DEEP hatred by the Chinese for the Japanese. [/quote]
