Since ancient times, China has been a major country occupying an important position. With a vast territory and a strong comprehensive national strength, she is a giant standing on the world stage both in the past and today.
During the Yuan Dynasty, Genghis Khan led the Mongol cavalry, all the way to the west, conquered many countries in Eurasia, and created brilliant achievements that shocked the world. At that time, China was a country straddling two continents, Asia and Europe, full of infinite possibilities.
Although China's territory has since shrunk, it still occupies one of the world's third largest countries. However, due to various historical reasons, some areas are no longer under Chinese jurisdiction, which is also regrettable to some.
However, it is surprising that in these lost territories, there are many regions that have established their own regimes. These regimes are adjacent to China and include five countries. Who are these countries?
A traveler once said that the five countries are Mongolia, Vietnam, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and the Republic of Tuva. These countries have different cultures, different languages, and different habits.
However, in the hearts of many Chinese, these lost territories will always be an integral part. They yearn to be able to return to the land and reconnect with the people there.
The wheel of history keeps rolling, what does the future hold? Perhaps one day, these countries will merge with China again and become a stronger, more united country. Such a story may only exist in the imagination, but we may as well pray for it and fight for it.
Lost Territories: Mongolia was once a neighbor of China
Many people may not know that there is a country that had close ties with China in ancient times. This country is Mongolia, a mysterious place full of grasslands and blue skies.
Mongolia has always been an important region throughout China's history. As early as the Western Han Dynasty, the Han people began to establish close ties with the inhabitants of Mongolia, carrying out trade and cultural exchanges. This connection continues to this day.
During this history, a deep relationship of friendship and mutual trust was established between the inhabitants of Mongolia and the Han people of China. Through trade and cultural exchanges, the two peoples understand each other, respect each other, and jointly promote each other's development.
At the same time, Mongolia has also contributed an important role to China's history and culture. Mongolia's culture and art, religious beliefs and social systems have all had a positive impact on China's cultural development. In the history of China, the contribution of Mongolia cannot be ignored.
Therefore, we can say that the Mongolian region has always been an important part of Chinese culture. The friendship and mutual trust between the two peoples will continue to promote each other's development and contribute to world peace and prosperity.
However, there was no eternal harmony in the country, and soon after, the history of Mongolia began to part ways with China. During the Qing Dynasty, the Mongol region was considered Chinese territory, and the Qing Dynasty could do nothing in the face of the great powers, and could only watch these powers divide and plunder the land.
This situation eventually led to the independence of Outer Mongolia. Although Mongolia is now independent, the country still has very deep ties with China, especially ethnically and culturally.
In the history of China, the contribution of the Mongols cannot be ignored. Genghis Khan and the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty were Mongols, and their great achievements are recorded in Chinese history.
Mongolia and China have very deep roots, and although they are now two separate countries, this connection still exists and is likely to continue to develop in the future.
The betrayal of friendship: Vietnam's feud with China
China and Vietnam once maintained long-term friendly relations, and the people of the two countries also have profound historical ties and cultural exchanges. However, at some point in Vietnam's history, the relationship between the two countries began to change.
At that time, Vietnam was suffering from interference and threats from external forces, and China, a powerful neighbor, naturally became an important partner for Vietnam. In order to help Vietnam out of its predicament, China has provided them with a large amount of economic assistance and technical support. The aid helped Vietnam out of its predicament, but it also sowed the seeds of bitterness.
At that time, China was struggling to build its country, and its domestic economy and politics were in a very fragile state. However, China chose to help Vietnam anyway. Behind this friendship is China's mind and great power demeanor.
However, Vietnam did not cherish this friendship. Under the manipulation of the Soviet Union and other Western powers, Vietnam began to launch an offensive on the Chinese border. This battle is known as the Vietnam Self-Defense Counterattack of the eighties of the last century. China had to send troops to defend itself against Vietnamese aggression, and the Chinese army made great sacrifices to defend its homeland and people.
Vietnam's behavior has chilled and disappointed China, and the betrayal of this friendship has brought relations between the two countries to a freezing point. But with China's rapid rise, Vietnam has come to realize its mistakes. However, the Western powers behind it are still manipulating Vietnam, and the grudges between the two countries are still difficult to resolve.
Neighborly Affection: China's good-neighborly relations with three small countries
China is a large country with a vast territory and abundant resources, and plays an important role in the Asian region. In addition to establishing close ties with Mongolia and Vietnam, China also maintains friendly and cooperative relations with neighboring small countries Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and the Republic of Tuva to promote their common development.
Cooperation between these countries and China involves not only trade and economic aspects, but also culture, education, science and technology and other fields. Both sides are working to strengthen ties and communication, and jointly carry out projects and cooperation to promote development and prosperity in the region.
Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan were once part of China, and although the economic and political situation of these countries is not as developed as China, China has always regarded them as neighbors and friendly countries and actively cooperated.
China and Tajikistan have carried out extensive cooperation in economic, trade, science and technology, culture and other fields. China has also built a transmission line in Tajikistan to solve Tajikistan's energy problem. At the same time, Tajikistan is also one of the participating countries in the "Belt and Road" initiative, and China and Tajikistan have carried out extensive cooperation in infrastructure construction and energy cooperation.
At the same time, Kyrgyzstan is also one of the participating countries in the "Belt and Road" initiative, and cooperation between China and Kyrgyzstan in economy, trade and infrastructure construction is also deepening.
epilogue
History is irreversible, but we can draw lessons from history, correctly understand and handle relations with neighboring countries, and continue to promote good-neighborly, friendly, mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation. Only by continuously deepening cooperation and strengthening exchanges can we achieve common development and prosperity in a peaceful and stable environment and benefit the people of all countries. In the future, let us work together to establish a closer regional cooperation framework and move forward together for shared prosperity.
