I read a lot of stuff on this forum about the "Great Manchu Empire" or the "Mongolian Supremacy." Unless you are an East Asia historian, here's a BIG FAT SO WHAT for you.
Your ancestors conquered my ancestors? SO WHAT? Who are you now? You hardly even exist and you're fading fast into history -- to join your glorious ancestors. You're now assimilated as a Han Chinese footnote or you live in a "country" that most Americans can't differentiate from the word "mongrel."
Get over it. You had your era but you forgot your roots and became sinified. We Koreans are the only survivors among the Great Northern Barbarians. Not only that, the Chinese love our stuff...they can't get enough of the Korean Wave. So much so that the CCP has to limit how much Korean TV is broadcasted into Chinese homes.
The Khitan Liao, Jurchen Jin, Mongol Yuan, Manchu Ching...SO WHAT? WHERE ARE THEY NOW!
"he who laughs last, laughs loudest"
UNIFIED KORYO!!!--THE NEXT GREAT GLOBAL EMPIRE!!!
