WAR IN IRAQ

Greedy China, like Nazi Germany claims territories of 23 countries, even though it only has borders with 14

China Territory Claims
China Territory Claims
The total area of China’s claims on other countries exceeds the size of modern China itself, but Beijing refuses to budge on its claims.
Many are based on unsubstantiated (outside China) and unprecedented “historical precedents” dating back centuries.
And while China only has land borders with 14 countries, it is claiming territory from at least 23 individual nations.
These include Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei, maritime territory which is 1000 kilometres from the closest Chinese soil (well outside the internationally recognised 200 kilometre EEZ).
The following is a list of China’s current claims against other countries, all of which it has made painfully clear it is willing to go to war over:
Afghanistan
Afghan province of Bahdashan (despite treaty of 1963, China still encroaches on Afghan territory).
Bhutan
Bhutanese enclaves in Tibet, namely Cherkip GompaDhoDungmarGesurGezonItse GompaKhocharNyanriRingungSanmarTarchen and Zuthulphuk. Also Kula Kangri and mountainous areas to the west of this peak, plus the western Haa District of Bhutan
Brunei
Burma
China claims large areas of Burma on historical precedent (Yuan Dynasty, 1271-1368). There are unspecified border disputes with Burma.
Cambodia
China has, on occasion, claimed parts of Cambodia on historical precedent (Ming Dynasty, 1368-1644)
India
Aksai Chin (part of Jammu and Kashmir), DemchokChumarKaurikShipki PassJadh, and Lapthal Shaksgam ValleySouth Tibet (part of India-controlled Arunachal Pradesh), Trans-Karakoram Tract
Indonesia
Parts of the South China Sea.
Japan
Parts of the East China Sea, particularly the Senkaku Islands. Also, on occasion, the Ryukyu Islands, on the grounds that the completely independent Kingdom of Ryukyu was once a vassal state of China. The Kingdom of Ryukyu terminated tributary relations with China in 1874.
Kazakhstan
There are continual unilateral claims by China on Kazakhstan territory, despite new agreements, in China’s favour, signed every few years.
Kyrgyzstan
China claims the majority of Kyrgyzstan on the grounds that it was unfairly forced to cede the territory (which it had formerly conquered) to Russia in the 19th century.
Laos
China claims large areas of Laos on historical precedent (Yuan Dynasty, 1271-1368)
Malaysia
Parts of the South China Sea, particularly the Spratly Islands
Mongolia
China claims all of Mongolia on historical precedent (Yuan Dynasty, 1271-1368). In fact, Mongolia, under Genghis Khan, occupied China.
Nepal
China claims parts of Nepal dating back to the Sino-Nepalese War in 1788-1792. China claims they are part of Tibet, therefore part of China.
North Korea
Baekdu Mountain and Jiandao. China has also on occasion claimed all of North Korea on historical grounds (Yuan Dynasty, 1271-1368).
Pakistan
Territory is still unilaterally claimed by China, despite China signing numerous agreements.
Philippines
Parts of the South China Sea, particularly Scarborough Shoal and the Spratly Islands
Russia
160,000 square kilometres still unilaterally claimed by China, despite China signing numerous agreements.
Singapore
Parts of the South China Sea.
South Korea
Parts of the East China Sea. China has also on occasion claimed all of South Korea on historical grounds (Yuan Dynasty, 1271-1368).
Taiwan
China claims all of Taiwan, but particular disputes are: Macclesfield BankParacel IslandsScarborough ShoalSenkaku Islands, parts of the South China Sea and the Spratly Islands.
Tajikistan
China claims parts of Tajikistan on historical precedent (Qing Dynasty, 1644-1912).
Vietnam
China claims large parts of Vietnam on historical precedent (Ming Dynasty, 1368-1644). Also: Macclesfield BankParacel Islands, parts of the South China Sea and the Spratly Islands.
Additionally, China recently taunted Hillary Clinton about claiming territorial rights on Hawaii, and claimed that Chinese sailors had settled peacefully in Australia centuries before European discovery. And let’s not forget the supposed 1418 map that “proves” China discovered the Americas (and the entire world) long before Columbus.
