Çinliler gelip X'te Türklere kafa tutmaya kalkmış, şaka gibiler valla dldkdjdk. Tarih kitaplarını hiç mi okumadınız? Neyse kahvemi içip tweetleri kaydırıyorum. 🌸🇹🇷
Chinese have recently been fighting with Turks on X. Frankly, given the Chinese people's rich store of knowledge, rigorous logical thinking, and superb insult skills, I don't see the slightest possibility that the Turks could come out on top.
This is actually quite natural, because historically, whenever Turks have encountered Chinese, they have consistently been at a disadvantage.
In the 2nd century BC, the Xiongnu, whom the Turks claim as their ancestors, were driven by China's Han Dynasty into Central Asia, where they vanished into the dust of history.
In the 6th century AD, the Turks empire, whom the Turks claim as another ancestor, was destroyed by China's Tang Dynasty and once again disappeared into the dust of history.
In the 19th century, Yaqub Beg, the occupier of Xinjiang in China, once called the Ottoman Empire his suzerain; although the Ottoman Empire supplied him with many weapons and training, he was still destroyed by China's Qing Dynasty.
In the 20th century, Turkish troops took part in the Korean War but were killed in large numbers by the Chinese, and there were many Turks in Chinese prisoner-of-war camps.
Most importantly, the Ottoman Empire and China's Qing Dynasty were both once very powerful, but in the colonial era they both declined and were called by Westerners the "Sick Man of West Asia" and the "Sick Man of East Asia" respectively. But the Ottoman Empire has already fallen apart and can never come back; Turkey can only huddle on its own peninsula, retaining only 3–4% of the territory the Ottoman Empire once held. The Chinese, by contrast, not only held on to the vast majority of the ancestors' territory but also rebuilt themselves into the most powerful country in the world. There is simply no comparison between the Turks and the Chinese on this point.
