In china central governance can be measured in milenia
- Retric 9y agoMilenia of failure. None of their dinasty's lasted even 1,000 years and many where very short. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zdHkY3XYHKA https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zdHkY3XYHKA
- addHocker 9y agoMillenia of continuity- as in there always where citys, there always where villages, there always where fields. No civil war destroyed all records. No civil war spanning more then three generations. No locked in against foreigners syndrom.
- simonh 9y agoYou could say that about Europe, the Middle East, South Asia. If China does undergo civil and political upheaval I don't think it has the social institutions or mechanisms to suddenly switch to enlightened liberal democracy, history matters, but that doesn't mean the Communist Party is guaranteed political control in perpetuity.
