China has a very large amount of high quality farmland, especially in the south where the climate is warm and very wet, ideal growing conditions for rice. Rice is significantly more productive than wheat, with yield per hectare second only to corn.

@@cdeye7032 You're mistaken; China's main grain-producing areas are primarily in the Northeast Plain, the North China Plain, and the East China Plain. These regions are in northern China. The southern regions have too many mountains, making them less suitable for grain production.
It is strange to hear in the West, but the Cultural Revolution was actually a peasant based revolution against the establishment wing of the Communist Party, with the help of Mao (who in his later years was being relegated by his peers). The Communist Party itself was not as extreme as them, and in fact it preserved many of the institutions and personnel of the late Qing period. Many red guards even had standoffs with the official Red Army and they commited arson, stole weapons and carried out armed fights among other groups. Many officials and academy heads which were in line with mainstream Communist Party line were punished by them in a context out of the laws. This is why for many Chinese the Cultural Revolution was a dark period (Xi Jinping himself did lose family members). So you can very well say that Mao used an uprising to his advantage. After the Cultural Revolution Mao's wife was sentenced to death based on this, and ex-red guards were purged. You can see it in "The Three Body Problem" books even.

1. Chinese population size is about 20 times of French 2. The death from the 1949 revolution didn’t purely come from the revolution itself, but also (or mainly) due to the fact that Chinese were so poor back to that time THANKS TO the western invasions and bad internal governance As someone who have lived in the US for 10 yrs I really don’t want to explain these things again and again, but I’m still oftentimes shocked by the ignorance of some western people I met or saw online
My man, there is just too much you can blame on other nations before it just becomes a bizarre phenomenon. The 1949 revolution wasnt the first, hell, not even the 10th time it happened, and wasnt even the last one where so many people just fucking died and everything continued like normal. In countries similar in population such as India such things didnt happen like that, Indonesia didnt get something REMOTELY like that and the USSR needed a combination of so many things, such as civil war, famine, world war and totalitarianism, for it to even come close to the half of the list
@@jacaredosvudu1638 my man, did I compare China with India? I thought I was talking about China and France did I mistype? Lol.

Like how do you even define that data - ppl directly died from battlefield? Or ppl indirectly died because of the war? If you compare China and India using those indexes I mentioned above you will realize the 2 countries were basically at the same stage in the 1940s, with China clearly surpassed India after that. Btw, the so called 1949 rev was also not a 1 yr war, it started from 28 yrs ago when the CCP was founded.

Posted this copypasta elsewhere but might as well post here: Fun facts about An Lushan: -He was the son of a sorceress and his name meant "war" -He disobeyed his commander changing into a enemy army and got crushed -He would've been executed for this but his superior liked him so the decision was given to the Emperor -He met the Emperor and forgot to bow to his son and justified it saying he was a barbarian so he didnt know it any better -The Emperor found this adorable -He then bowed also to the Empress, which confused the Emperor -He said it was because barbarians kneeled to mom before dad, which the Emperor also found adorable -In fact the Emperor liked him so much that instead of executing him he adopted him and married him to his daughter -When the Emperor died An Lushan thought his "brother" the prince who's now the new Emperor would execute him for the one time he forgot to bow to him -The new Emperor actually wanted to make him his chancellor -To do that the Emperor sent a eunuch to test his character to see if he was worthy being chancellor -He bribed the Eunuch -The new Emperor thought the eunuch was saying bullshit, killed him and sent another to test his adopted "brother" wholeheartedly believing his character -He bribed the other eunuch too -The Emperor then asked him to come to the capital so they could talk because surely those eunuchs were lying and he could make him his chancellor -An Lushan panicked so badly he went to hide in his province not daring to leave his house and not going even to celebrations and burials where the Emperor would be -The Emperor then appointed his rival who wanted him to answer for his bribery as chancellor, which he thought confirmed that the Emperor wanted to kill him -He then led a army to siege the capital so he could capture the Emperor and make his "brother" be friends with him again once he executed his rival chancellor -His rival used this as proof he wanted to usurp the throne all along and they had his whole family executed -He understandably lost it when his family got executed so he tried to usurp the throne for real by proclaming his own dynasty -He lost because the Sieg of Suiyang took too long giving time for the Tang to recover and was it's own level of mind-fuckery, just search the meme "strategic Tang Victory" -He was killed by his own son who sent an assassin to stab him -He was too obese to grab his sword or even move, also blind, so the assassin just akwardly stabbed him once and his organs popped out like a fart - Did I say he was obese? I mean it, he apparently crushed a horse to death once with his ass trying to ride it -Anyways his last words were "THERE'S A THIEF IN MY HOUSE" or "THIS IS A THIEVE FROM MY OWN HOUSEHOLD" -The later is more likely meaning he knew it was his son who did it but the former is funnier because I like to imagine him thinking he was being randomly muggled -After his death and defeat of his dynasty he actually received a traditional Tang burial given to a royal prince cause they were more disappointed with him than anything else -His post-death name given by the Emperor simply meant "unthinking" because of his recklessness, but I personally prefer to translate it as "stupid" Seriously it was the stupidest war ever Also it killed a higher percentage of the human population than any other conflict in history, roughly 1/6 of the global population in the highest estimates
I just love chinese history "Emperor Li Shun fu calls his general Ho lee shin a poopy head after a heated argument about taxes, 30 billion dead" "Some Guy calls himself the next messiah, 210 millions of casualties, 500 acres of land left useless, food lack an starvation rises across the land in 2 years of conflict"
Chinese people love to record the history, and Chinese the language usually have more message so it can express a lot in a few characters such as "岁饥，人相食"，express the living hell under a big famine in only five characters So the Chinese history are usually logical and heavy
This figure is the highest estimate, and comes from the 'black book of communism', a book which is discredited by... *checks notes* LITERALLY EVERYONE who has ever studied the matter seriously. This is the same book which counts nazi soldiers, and unborn people during wartime as 'victims of communism'. Not infant mortality, not aborted fetuses, not miscarriages, but babies that would have been born, if there wasn't a war. And if your first reaction is to go "it was still a lot of people, why are you running defense for commie China", well... This is the equivalent of responding to someone who correctly points out that 6 million jews perished in the holocaust, not 60 million, with 'why are you antisemitic?'. Numbers matter, because historical truth matters. Your numbers do not stand scrutiny. And it's pretty crazy that you come in here to 'aCsHuALLy' about the real numbers, when your source is literally a book written by a guy, WHOSE OWN COLLEAGUES, involved in writing the book, said that he was obsessed with arriving to 100 million, no matter whether it was true or not.
it's true that China's got a massive population, but it doesn't mean we don't mind casualty lol, especially in recent decades lol. China in Korean War(1950s): soldiers fought in small groups to avoid large MG and Artillery casualties, and never did a "banzai"-ish charge like they portrayed in movies. China in Sino-Vietnam war (late 1970s to early 80s), rain down artillery as much as possible before sending out soldiers. These days (2020s), FPV drones and robot dogs down to squad level. I mean after all, we are all humans who are afraid of death, if casualty can be avoided by spending more money, and you happen to have that money, why not?
I was wondering how come you depict most of these characters especially on 0:15, have near no visible ears. Then i remember they don't tend to listen their close associates suggestions. Even if they are heard, they most likely enter a whole new level of existence, the kind of leaving your body behind kind of journey.
there's also Zhang Xianzhong, a peasant rebel/warlord who operated in western China during the Ming to Qing transition famous for committing mass murder across Sichuan, reducing the province's population to like, 1/3 of the original
And people wonder why as chinese we don't see life as precious compare to other countries. A history of easily losing millions and with out much issue does that
this is what happens when you have a huge empire, and it falls into chaos and trade collapses and everyone starves because the entire empire is built on that trade framework

These are just the revolutions/rebellions. There are also similarly deadly invasions and wars such as the warring states (high death toll but spread out over a very long time), the mongol invasion + song/jin war (10-20 mlln), the Manchu Ming war (~25 million) over a couple decades, the sino-Japanese war (~20m), and the Civil war going on before and after the sino-Japanese war (~10m) . There’s also other similarly deadly mass casualty events like earthquakes, floods, and diseases which killed similar amounts.

It is strange to hear in the West, but the Cultural Revolution was actually a peasant based revolution against the establishment wing of the Communist Party, with the help of Mao (who in his later years was being relegated by his peers). The Communist Party itself was not as extreme as them, and in fact it preserved many of the institutions and personnel of the late Qing period.
Many red guards even had standoffs with the official Red Army and they commited arson, stole weapons and carried out armed fights among other groups. Many officials and academy heads which were in line with mainstream Communist Party line were punished by them in a context out of the laws. This is why for many Chinese the Cultural Revolution was a dark period (Xi Jinping himself did lose family members). So you can very well say that Mao used an uprising to his advantage. After the Cultural Revolution Mao's wife was sentenced to death based on this, and ex-red guards were purged. You can see it in "The Three Body Problem" books even.

An Lushan had nearly half of the elite heavy infantry&cavalry of the Tang Dynasty // Horus had nearly half of the Astartes of the Empire
An Lushan's rebellion caused the Tang Dynasty to fall into a terrible decline from the Golden Age // Horus's rebellion caused the Empire to fall into a terrible decline from the Great Crusade
An Lushan's rebellion reduced 3/4 population of the Tang Dynasty // Horus's rebellion destroyed a large number of habitable planets
An Lushan was Yang Yuhuan's godson // Horus was the Emperor's son
So An Lushan ≈ Horus

I'm Taiwanese, most of them are taught in history class. Did not tell us about the casualties though (except The Leap), this is insane and terrifying to think about.
in mainland you can pick natural or social-oriented science in traditional schools. hostory class focuses much more on recent stuff, aka the century of humiliation, as it was p much the only time china failed to be a giant regional or even superpower. natural science pickers still know the most iconic ones just from how many idioms and integral cultural components these civil wars spawned lol

1. Chinese population size is about 20 times of French
2. The death from the 1949 revolution didn’t purely come from the revolution itself, but also (or mainly) due to the fact that Chinese were so poor back to that time THANKS TO the western invasions and bad internal governance
As someone who have lived in the US for 10 yrs I really don’t want to explain these things again and again, but I’m still oftentimes shocked by the ignorance of some western people I met or saw online

My man, there is just too much you can blame on other nations before it just becomes a bizarre phenomenon. The 1949 revolution wasnt the first, hell, not even the 10th time it happened, and wasnt even the last one where so many people just fucking died and everything continued like normal. In countries similar in population such as India such things didnt happen like that, Indonesia didnt get something REMOTELY like that and the USSR needed a combination of so many things, such as civil war, famine, world war and totalitarianism, for it to even come close to the half of the list
@@jacaredosvudu1638 my man, did I compare China with India? I thought I was talking about China and France did I mistype? Lol.
Moreover, even compare india with China, I think the data that make more sense are population size, population growth rate, and average age, instead of the so called “num of ppl died from revolution”, which you can just manipulate that data so easily. Like how do you even define that data - ppl directly died from battlefield? Or ppl indirectly died because of the war? If you compare China and India using those indexes I mentioned above you will realize the 2 countries were basically at the same stage in the 1940s, with China clearly surpassed India after that.
Btw, the so called 1949 rev was also not a 1 yr war, it started from 28 yrs ago when the CCP was founded.

Fun facts about An Lushan:
-He was the son of a sorceress and his name meant "war"
-He disobeyed his commander changing into a enemy army and got crushed
-He would've been executed for this but his superior liked him so the decision was given to the Emperor
-He met the Emperor and forgot to bow to his son and justified it saying he was a barbarian so he didnt know it any better
-The Emperor found this adorable
-He then bowed also to the Empress, which confused the Emperor
-He said it was because barbarians kneeled to mom before dad, which the Emperor also found adorable
-In fact the Emperor liked him so much that instead of executing him he adopted him and married him to his daughter
-When the Emperor died An Lushan thought his "brother" the prince who's now the new Emperor would execute him for the one time he forgot to bow to him
-The new Emperor actually wanted to make him his chancellor
-To do that the Emperor sent a eunuch to test his character to see if he was worthy being chancellor
-He bribed the Eunuch
-The new Emperor thought the eunuch was saying bullshit, killed him and sent another to test his adopted "brother" wholeheartedly believing his character
-He bribed the other eunuch too
-The Emperor then asked him to come to the capital so they could talk because surely those eunuchs were lying and he could make him his chancellor
-An Lushan panicked so badly he went to hide in his province not daring to leave his house and not going even to celebrations and burials where the Emperor would be
-The Emperor then appointed his rival who wanted him to answer for his bribery as chancellor, which he thought confirmed that the Emperor wanted to kill him
-He then led a army to siege the capital so he could capture the Emperor and make his "brother" be friends with him again once he executed his rival chancellor
-His rival used this as proof he wanted to usurp the throne all along and they had his whole family executed
-He understandably lost it when his family got executed so he tried to usurp the throne for real by proclaming his own dynasty
-He lost because the Sieg of Suiyang took too long giving time for the Tang to recover and was it's own level of mind-fuckery, just search the meme "strategic Tang Victory"
-He was killed by his own son who sent an assassin to stab him
-He was too obese to grab his sword or even move, also blind, so the assassin just akwardly stabbed him once and his organs popped out like a fart
- Did I say he was obese? I mean it, he apparently crushed a horse to death once with his ass trying to ride it
-Anyways his last words were "THERE'S A THIEF IN MY HOUSE" or "THIS IS A THIEVE FROM MY OWN HOUSEHOLD"
-The later is more likely meaning he knew it was his son who did it but the former is funnier because I like to imagine him thinking he was being randomly muggled
-After his death and defeat of his dynasty he actually received a traditional Tang burial given to a royal prince cause they were more disappointed with him than anything else
-His post-death name given by the Emperor simply meant "unthinking" because of his recklessness, but I personally prefer to translate it as "stupid"
Seriously it was the stupidest war ever
Also it killed a higher percentage of the human population than any other conflict in history, roughly 1/6 of the global population in the highest estimates

This figure is the highest estimate, and comes from the 'black book of communism', a book which is discredited by... *checks notes* LITERALLY EVERYONE who has ever studied the matter seriously. This is the same book which counts nazi soldiers, and unborn people during wartime as 'victims of communism'. Not infant mortality, not aborted fetuses, not miscarriages, but babies that would have been born, if there wasn't a war.
And if your first reaction is to go "it was still a lot of people, why are you running defense for commie China", well... This is the equivalent of responding to someone who correctly points out that 6 million jews perished in the holocaust, not 60 million, with 'why are you antisemitic?'.
Numbers matter, because historical truth matters. Your numbers do not stand scrutiny. And it's pretty crazy that you come in here to 'aCsHuALLy' about the real numbers, when your source is literally a book written by a guy, WHOSE OWN COLLEAGUES, involved in writing the book, said that he was obsessed with arriving to 100 million, no matter whether it was true or not.

No wonder nowadays it's so unbalanced
it's true that China's got a massive population, but it doesn't mean we don't mind casualty lol, especially in recent decades lol. China in Korean War(1950s): soldiers fought in small groups to avoid large MG and Artillery casualties, and never did a "banzai"-ish charge like they portrayed in movies. China in Sino-Vietnam war (late 1970s to early 80s), rain down artillery as much as possible before sending out soldiers. These days (2020s), FPV drones and robot dogs down to squad level.
I mean after all, we are all humans who are afraid of death, if casualty can be avoided by spending more money, and you happen to have that money, why not?
