BS... the chinese leadership has had decades to expound the considerable and magnificent history of China and they have done little.

Not BS at all, considering how people put their faith into Christianity because of its long history and the Bible ... and how people want to excavate thousands year-old stuff to put their faith further and further ... Frankly speaking, it is pretty fascinating for one to discover the Ark of Noah, isn't it ??

Can you define for me what an "actual Chinese" person is?


Han ethnicity. Even the following propaganda shows some knowledge, but I just couldn't find any such law by the govt.

Generally, before the Ching Dynasty, there was a Ming Dynasty and Tong Dynasty, which were governed by the Han or the actual Chinese. People praised the emperors at that time because there was few corruption by the officials. But when the Ching Dynasty came in, so many Han or Chinese fleed from the mainland and into Taiwan. Some of them even organized militants to fight against the Ching. There was a well-known slogan by the Han ..."Revive the Ming and revolt against the Ching".

And can you tell me why there are 8 main "dialects" which are completely disimilar in enunciation?

They are just follow the same written Chinese characters, but just pronounce a little differently.

Which dialect is the one spoken by "actual Chinese"?

Mandarin ... very popularly spoken by Mainlanders and Taiwanese.
