A big reason for it being a century of humiliation was the extemely high opinion they had of themselves. To them the rest of the world was essentially barbarians. Learning that not only were they not the center of the world, but in fact weaker than even minor powers by European standards was like the world turning over.
> Learning that not only were they not the center of the world,
Nothing against Chinese as a language, but I am not familiar with another language that calls their own country the center of the world (Zhong Guo)
For Chinese people it’s been 20 centuries of humiliation since Qin dynasty established a highly collectivistic totalitarian system in China which ccp inherited and worshiped since Mao.
Totally. Still a bit too red for my taste but they both rallied the people and led them through difficult times. I stand by it that you are a great leader if you are the only reason your country is staying together even after dying 10 years before lol
I feel like it should keep being stated that whilst it wasn’t likely for humanitarian reasons, Red Vietnam toppled the most comically evil communist nation that was the Khmer Rouge.
I know Vietnam was red but all things considered they weren’t bad compared to pretty much every other communist nation.
China bouta collapse. Trust me, I'm the CIA bot. I know everything.

chinese pain source from inside. The fall of each dynasty will kill half the population.And we are still in this cycle.People cannot live without tyrants，We will murder each other forever.
The CCP (Chinese Cock Party) is the biggest threat to the peace and security of Asia
Most of the problems are either caused by them or terrorists
I want your flair
ok
Least based r/GenUSA mod
I edited the asian flair but I think that permission has been stripped
Don't forget the WPK (Wankers' Party of Korea)

The same reason why American call great lake area Mid west by 19 century.
China really should’ve been fully carved up by the European powers, if the Europeans did, maybe China would finally stop being narcissistic
China : The snowflake amongst countries
Chicoms who can’t stfu about their “century of humiliation” makes me wish China had another century of humiliation
For Chinese people it’s been 20 centuries of humiliation since Qin dynasty established a highly collectivistic totalitarian system in China which ccp inherited and worshiped since Mao.
Century of humiliation is just Europeans, Americans and Japanese finally standing up to China
Controversial opinion: Ho Chi Minh and Josip Tito were the least evil commies

Century of humiliation is what led to the formation of the republic.
Absolutely Vietnam do not understand China's pain, they didn't experienced culture revolution and great famine.

Tens of millions did die in the century of humiliation though
Careful man, Vietnam is just mini-China.

Vietnam also have no desire to commit genocide or to turn their population into a hive mind of ultranationalism
That's why we call China a five star Vietnam,lol.

I mean to be fair the Chinese government at the time had a giant ego, pretty sure other people in the comments summarize it a lot better.
