Should China conquer Norway, Canada, Poland?

[TruthTheOnlyDefense]

Ah. I don't care. This thread is over. You're late.
Bye bye.

Typical Chinese threaten, bully, lie, cheat, steal and run away, lol.

And I think they have a careful plan. It's not an empty threat. From some of their strategies and theories. Obviously, they have a complete plan to deal with some emergencies.

For example: unrestricted warfare

https://books.google.de/books/about/Unrestricted_Warfare.html?id=ejFV1568hqAC&redir_esc=y&hl=zh-CN

Translated from the Original Chinese Documents Publisher Provided Annotation. As incredible as it may be to believe, three years before the September 11 bombing of the World Trade Center-a Chinese military manual called Unrestricted Warfare touted such an attack-suggesting it would be difficult for the U.S. military to cope with. Now NewsMax.com is making the CIA translation of this shocking book available to all Americans. In reading China's military manual Unrestricted Warfare, you will learn that the events of September ll were not a random act perpetrated by independent agents. Instead, Chinese military planners believe that terrorism is just one of the many tools at the hands of nations and their terrorists allies to wage total war against the United States. The doctrine of total war outlined in Unrestricted Warfare clearly demonstrates that the People's Republic of China is preparing to confront the United States and our allies by conducting "asymmetrical" or multidimensional attack on almost every aspect of our social, economic and political life.

You've lost me now. I'm just here to make fun of feng leng "railgun/nuclear war" kind of ppl is all....and also discuss a few things with rational Chinese members like @Genesis and @GeraltofRivia (as they appear on forum from time to time) .

You seem to straddle both sides hehe....power to you my friend. Its just a forum in the end. No one big (or allied to big) is going to invade any other big guy (or allied to big guy) like you are describing.

That period is long over now....what you think the cold war was all about?

I told you the truth from the beginning. But unfortunately, everyone began to take it seriously.

As we all know, Norway has posed a security threat to China. Similarly, Norway also believes that China poses a threat to it. SFAC has warned that Norway is about to invade China!!!
and they already have excuses.

Norway intelligence service issues Huawei warning

Canada has also repeatedly threatened China's security. And provoked China many times.
In fact, Canada will take the lead in invading China. Because that's the only way. Canada looks like a sovereign independent country! They also have enough excuses.

https://www.nationalpost.com/opinio...arder-line-with-china-over-detained-canadians

And Poland... sorry for Friedrich, sorry for Napoleon, sorry for Hitler, sorry for Stalin...I once accused them of carving up Poland. Because I was too young. This is my mistake...

So the problem now is that they think China is a security threat. We also think they are ready to invade China. How to solve it? I think we should avoid things like Korea, Vietnam, Cuba, Grenada, Egypt, Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, Haiti, Panama, Dominica, Nicaragua, Iraq, Libya, Syria..............

We should firmly oppose Norway, Canada and Poland's aggression against China.
If necessary. Conquer them!

Look, it's so easy to make a little story.

The whole part about conquest, is the rotten, diseased mentality of Western Civilization (if you can call it a civilization). Norway's targeting China's Huawei is only because the company is poised to lead in 5G technologies. Of course the western mentality prohibits Norway, America, Britain, France or any other Western country from allowing Huawei to lead their charge from the front on 5G technology. The only thing Western Civilization has to cling on to is its technology brag. Strip that, and they're back to their backward ways of medieval times of fighting battles and prima nocta. Otherwise they're leadership's are plagued by the diseased mentality of superiority. If anyone else has it, they're automatically considered a threat to world peace. That's what is at play here, nothing else.

Well its complicated stuff. History of Scania etc.... because Beowulf himself comes from modern day Sweden (in the saga the king that sends him "across the belt" to help the Danesfolk king Hrothgar..... is Scanian Swedish or "Geat" as they were known...King Hygelac iirc)....but its part of sweden that has much "danish" history and connection (their language is also somewhat of a halfway language between proper swedish and danish....much like talayalam present in my border area of TN)..

But "Viking" itself is very complicated terminology (compared to more broader "Norse/northmen" which can even include large parts of maritime Germany too)....you are right if its only applied to the western raiders/trading routes etc...then its largely, almost exclusively from Norway + Denmark areas (and of course Scania/southern sweden, since that was denmark back then)....since they were more westerly looking.

The traditional Swedish core area (where stockholm, vastergotland etc i.e "Svealand") were more easterly looking across the baltic rather than north sea. So they formed their links with Finnish/uralic and then russian areas. As @Mage has pointed out the very word "Rus" comes from those sort of broader Vikings. To this day the Finns call Sweden "Ruotsi" as well....and as you may know Finland was part of Sweden for a long time (which is why Swedish is the 2nd official language there still)...it was the "Österland" (Eastern land) as Swedes call it.

It depends what you mean as "Viking" in the end. I go with the broader terminology (western + eastern expansion) generally.

@Joe Shearer

BTW glad you enjoyed yourself in that part of the world. They are good folks there.

Why do you know all these things?

Even I have very little idea of these things.

Have you dated an Old-English/Saxon history major yet for a few years? Likely not.

If you haven't read Beowulf, I would start there at least

Surely you must know about Finland's history to some level?...given you are in Sweden of all places.

You see as a lad, I had a Swedish and Finnish friend sit at same table as I did during art class in middle school. They would talk in perfect conversant Swedish to each other, and I wondered why (given I knew the Finnish friend spoke Finnish as mother tongue) and looked it up later.

BTW, Finnish mythology played a huge part in influencing Tolkien (lord of the rings author).

 

[gambit]

What a joke of a thread...

I date a philosophy major who is half Finnish.

I heard of Beowulf. Never went around reading it. I know bit of Finland's history. That's all there to it.

Finnish is a bit different from other Nordic languages. Perhaps it is close to Estonian, I'm not sure.

Norwegian and Swedish is quite similar. When I hear someone speaking Norwegian, I can pick up some words they are speaking.

That I know. And Lord of the rings movies were amazing.

 

[Nein]

China invade Poland please

Good lad.

Yes its what is known as "uralic" language. Its own different language group (to indo-european). Basically your Bengali is closer (but distant) cousin to Swedish than Finnish is (minus the vocab exchange/use done by proximity).

Estonian is in that family too (Most Finns and Estonians can understand each other without much difficulty overall when they speak standard way....though my Finnish friend says he finds Estonian TV programs more formal use hard to follow a lot of the time). There are some other uralic languages like Sami (the lapland folk) and also some tribes in Russia....and I believe Hungarian is in there too (as the Huns who founded the country were uralic language of some sort back then I believe).

Norwegian and Swedish is quite similar. When I hear someone speaking Norwegian, I can pick up some words they are speaking.

Yes they are most similar of the scandinavian languages. Norwegians, especially Bokmal trained, can understand large parts of Danish too (given the history). Norwegians find it easiest to understand everyone else basically (esp without any training/exposure).

Danish is very different sounding and source of lot of humour for Swedes as you may already know . Everyone else sounds a bit "rustic country yokel" to the syllable dropping "high royal, ancient flag" Danes though. It goes both ways basically hehe (as you can tell I grew up in setting that had lot of Scandinavians of all sorts present around me).

Written wise, almost everything can be understood by everyone else in Scandinavia (except Finnish if you count Finland as part of Scandinavia rather than just "Nordic").

That I know. And Lord of the rings movies were amazing.

Books even more so. Faramir was way different...and the books had the venerable Bombadil. Two things that stuck out the most to me in contrast to the movies.

But of course you can't quite put music to a book...and visual scenes like the Ent March etc (which BTW was from Tolkien's frustration at Shakespeare's Macbeth...promise of a forest marching...but cheaped out in the end ole Willy did).

Movies bring out another element altogether sometimes for sure.

try your might in Afghanistan first. If you can conquer Afghanistan, rest of the world is yours.

Well, Danish language is similar to Swedish. The problem is the weird sounds that varies. The sound of "sj" or "kj" can sound nonsense to many. The conversations can get weird or misunderstood without prior experience. But I Swedish can get used to Danish and vice versa pretty quick.

Finnish is very different. It has some loan words from Swedish and Danish. But from a different family. Like Estonian and Hungarian.

 

[VCheng]

LOL @VCheng @James Jaevid @Hamartia Antidote @KAL-EL .....STRONK!

The logical first step should be to take over Siberia. Empty of people, full of resources and lots of room for the huge Chinese population to flourish. Makes sense, actually.

That's what I was telling you about Finnish silly

This isn't about what makes sense, its about teaching "offenders" a lesson.
