Chinese people are currently review-bombing Stellaris because Paradox is releasing a meme alt-history path for India in a completely different game where they can form the "Silk Road Empire"

Very brave and controversial.
Won't agree personally, but that's mostly since I played only 3 pdx games.
I enjoyed EU4 less though.

EU4 is a board game not a real video game, really Victoria 2 and Crusader Kings are the only good paradox games

Censored internet so nobody is allowed to show them the r-slurred parts of their civilization plus two generations of rapid progress combined with the government promising them just one more generation of burnouts bro and we will never have to suffer or be in 2nd place again, and the fact they they are never going to reach number one because of their demographics still taking its time to reach the general population.
One must remember that China is the second biggest economy in the world, so thee people really do believe that should consign them to be treated as the second most important people in the world, which means they should get an actual say in how the world works. But reality continues to have a reality bias.

Well put.
Chinese, even the ones in Taiwan, never shed off the Han-supremacist mindset, so it is always a matter for them to feel slighted when not being sucked off.
PRC's push of China Dream in the past decade has only made it worse.

I mean, wait till the US begins to decline in earnest as the march of history continues, I expect they would be sneeding even harder based on how the libs and republicans behave when they are losing. Now imagine both sides sneeding at the same time.

They are already doing that. They know they are in trouble, so they are screaming their CHINA NUMBA WAN thing much louder to compensate.
We may decline, but they will not be the one to overtake us.

This is historically accurate thobeit. Anyone looking at this map can tell which route would be most cost competitive and all those routes go through India lmao. How many bales can you load on a camel and how many camels can you take through 20k foot passes.

WTF are you talking about? It was always way easier going across Central Asia. Look at your own f-ing map (which is from a book from before you born btw
). Unless you're hauling really heavy/bulky goods where you'd go by sea, but that wasn't worth it. It was spices, textiles, the kinds of goods you see in international trade in my critically-acclaimed LP of Darklands.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Very easy lmao
Just like 50% of the road would be mountains >3000M with several mountain passes that remain snowed in for half the year to the present no biggie kek
You think camels were bringing in goods worth more than 120 ocean going ships annually?
I don't even understand what you're trying to say with heavy, bulky etc. Ancients weren't trading coal and lumber long distance, every single item was low volume high value. But even then obviously it'd be beneficial if you could bring 500 units to sell rather than 50. China's trading cities were all southern coastal for a reason lmao. If silk road was what it is hyped to be Canton would have been in Xian. But of course that was never the case, bulk of China's overseas trade always went to the southern seas and thence to the world.
