I think they tried that a bunch of times There's actually an old Chinese proverb that goes something like "That which is apart must inevitably come together, that which is together will inevitably separate". Basically, nations break apart and reform of their own accord over time. Attempts to force the issue (like people constantly taking apart Poland) tends to have the effect of making the pieces involved even more determined to pull back together (like Poland, or East/West Germany). An outside force breaking up China would probably be the surest way to guarantee that everyone in China would fight to reunify. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:956392641] in Why don't ...
