First, salutations, before continuing with flow of random thoughts, power to the people, let us even if by chance accidentally remain on the right side of history, for am not particular, engage fruitfully with once in one hundred years changes, and may the Force be with us, etc etc
Should we be wrong, let our consolation prize, that be gold and silver, pay out our less deserved reward for a botched macro play. As I noted, am not fussy.
Let us get down to big arrow macro guesses
(0) History assuredly did not start at any particular moment and not even the inception of Adam & Eve, however, even am remaining polite w/r to shifting definitions I do find it interesting that 'genocide' concept gets defined, refined, redefined, spin, spun, twisted, dried, as the occasion suits by apologists, neocons, libtards, and all such same.
Re 'genocides' of the past, and so many times ...
Kicking off with CIA video, literally - makes one wonder what the original film was made for, purpose wise
(1) Long time ago emissaries of the Chinese civilisation state were sent to visit Rome, then known as Daqin, circa 97AD, early days, but for any number of reasons demurred once the journey started to look arduous and /or dangerous

(2) Yeup, the boyz of the two tribes knew about each other and / but were too busy to get in each other's way.
De-coupling / de-risking was not necessary for distance and buffers perfectly functional and adequate to keep peace, a/k/a Pax Rome
(2-i) In the mean time, as in the Game of Go, Team China built passive defensive walls against its northern barbarians Great Wall of China - Wikipedia

(2-ii) Team China, even though generally agrarian and peace-loving in nature, did active defence by storing grain, raising army, and expedited migration of the Turks on her northern borderlands, sending them and such more or less same westward, ever more westward, year after decade after eon after century after millennia, and always westward
"The ancestors of the modern day Turks originally lived in and near present-day China. Chinese historical records show that the nomadic peoples of the north, including the Turks, played a significant role in Chinese history. Today, seven Turkic language-speaking ethnic minorities still live in China. After China’s Tang Dynasty (618-906), Turks began to immigrate westward, and by the end of the eleventh century they were settling in what is now modern-day Turkey. During the Ottoman Empire, relations between the two regions continued, with the name for “Ottoman” in Chinese (“Rumi”) appearing several times in historical documents and Ottoman tributary delegations traveling to China, especially during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644)."
... until one fine day, the Rumi's came in first contact with the Romans at Constantinople and unfortunately did them in.
(2-iii) There was an unexpected problem, and them be the Mongols, and just like the Foundation series of books by Asimov, such miscalculation of psycho-socio-mathematics do happen and one must make the best of them, the Chinese folded early in the game and joined in the Great Khan's adventure as a part of the very short-lived Yuan dynasty

cousins of the Yuan Sons-of-Heaven eventually snuck up against both the rump of the Romans and the flourishing Ottomans / Turks / Rumi's, and did some wet work. The Game of Go, unlike Chess, and totally dissimilar to Poker, is a holistic game
(3) After the Yuan officialdom were played out, the peace-loving Chinese absorbed them and establish the Ming, same dynasty that gave rise to the Admiral Zheng He noted earlier
After the Ming came the Qing, of the Manchu tribe, who eventually lost the lovely island of Taiwan to the Dutch, and that which was recovered by the Republic of China, and still to be finally settled as part and parcel to overall settlement of the CHINESE civil war
(4) Eventually, in the northern lands happenings happened
(5) and further west, in Europe, happenings happened over and over again
(6) Very interesting, when the Japanese invaded China China China, the VVV British watched, and watched some more, whereas the despicable Germans helped, the Chinese side, which of course turned out to be the then right side of history
How effective were the German-trained Chinese troops in fighting the Japanese in the Second Sino-Japanese War?
... and / but when the Japanese were talking Fuku with Jews (arguably a particular genre known in the alt-media as the Zionist - agnostic, wait to see)
Shortly prior to and during World War II, and coinciding with the Second Sino-Japanese War, tens of thousands of Jewish refugees were resettled in the Japanese Empire. The onset of the European war by Nazi Germany involved the lethal mass persecutions and genocide of Jews, later known as the Holocaust, resulting in thousands of Jewish refugees fleeing east. Most ended up in Japanese-occupied China.
History is complicated, as you should know, and am sure you do, admitted or not.
I do not make up history, unlike MSM. I just read history.
