That map looks like a joke. It shows all of Mongolia (not just inner Mongolia), Tibet, Uighuristan, parts of Kashmir, much of North East India as part of China. This is definitely not the map of China (past, present or future). None of the areas I mentioned were ever under the occupation of any of the Chinese dynansties.

No, that map is NOT a joke. It's the official map of the Republic of China (Taiwan). If you go to Taiwan's consulates, you will see that map on the walls. And to that last sentence of yours above, I have two words for you: Qing Dynasty.

I'm going to end my part of this discussion. It's not going to change your mind. We have more pressing issues in the world to talk about than "Uighuristan" and Inner Mongolia. Inner Mongolian goat cheese is probably a better subject to talk about than this brouhaha.

Funny to see somebody who started diverting the thread from his very first pious (I guess that is not the PC word to describe PRC followers) post remark about changing the subject...LOL
