there is no geographically defined china even to this day, there is how ever a geographically defined india since atleast the period of gautama buddha/buddhism.
for instance the qing empire consisted of non chinese manchu people, the chinese are those who speak chinese language, so it would exclude all the minorities included as part of china and those regions which are not chinese for instance xinjiang, tibet, manchuria, inner mongolia etc.
the last chinese dynasty to rule china was ming chinese dynasty and from their map you can clearly see that the geography of chinese was pretty different back then. Even during the qing period, the chinese geography extended into korea/part of qing dynasty so qing empire maps can be hardly used to define china geographically since korea is not an independent country
people saying that there was no india before the british are forgetting that india was in existence since the very early periods as it was geographically isolated hence well defined, india had naturally defined borders, something whch we cannot speak when it comes to china.
