What does economic performance have to do with the British museums being filled with looted cultural artifacts? You could have thrown in Greece in there (EU member), but Greece also wants it's looted artifacts back.
- charlieyu1 4y agoWhat has it to do with economics? China's case was very different as well, the majority of the population (Han Chinese) were ruled by a foreign race (Qing) that were racist towards them in 1800s. Many Han Chinese fought alongside foreign powers and they did loot a lot. And it doesn't matter anyway, CCP rise to power and smashed everything in the name of Cultural Revolution.
