>China's external turmoil can be boxed within the 1800s

Yeah except for that time that Japan tried to conquer them while they were in a civil war.





True but do you really think, all summed up, they had it worse than LATAM?

Given that the worst of colonialism happened in 16th and 17th centuries and by the 1930s, China was in a worse position than much of Latin America (e.g. Argentina), I would say that they had a harder go of things more recently than Latin America.
