Added Sino-Roman Relations

[edit]

Added this part: The first diplomatic contact between China and the West occurred with the expansion of the Roman Empire in the Middle-East during the 2nd century, the Romans gained the capability to develop shipping and trade in the Indian Ocean. The first group of people claiming to be an embassy of Romans to China is recorded in 166, sixty years after the expeditions to the west of the Chinese general Ban Chao. It came to Emperor Huan of Han China, "from Antun (Emperor Antoninus Pius), king of Daqin (Rome)". Although, as Antoninus Pius died in 161, leaving the empire to his adoptive son Marcus Aurelius (Antoninus), the convoy arrived in 166, and the both Emperor being "Antonius" the confusion arises about who sent the ambassy.

Cooked barbarians

[edit]

The terms "cooked barbarians" and "raw barbarians" are extremely crude translations for 熟番 and 生番. They can be better translated literally as "familiar barbarians", "mature barbarians" and "unfamiliar barbarians" respectively. I've seen the terms in a few places, but I don't think they are widely accepted terms. Is there any objections to changing them? Uly 13:25, 11 January 2007 (UTC) I believe that cooked barbarian is a very literal translation and should be kept. I understand it can be interpreted different ways, but there are also different languages and interpretations within China. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.194.83.142 (talk) 15:48, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Expansion

[edit]

I have expanded this article with about 80% of new material, adding all of the different dynasties in a row. If anyone has any suggestions on creating new sub-sections for these, I would like to hear it.--Pericles of AthensTalk 18:56, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unequal treaties period?

[edit]

This article ought to be expanded to deal with the unequal treaties period and the period post opium war to 1911. China had quite a few documented interactions with other countries during this period that are not yet included in this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SONORAMA (talkcontribs) 11:51, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The external link was for a pdf of Hevia's book on the 1793 mission. The link was dead and the book must be copyrighted anyway. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Erikringmar (talkcontribs) 10:38, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Arabian Peninsula from a Chinese perspective

[edit]

Arabia was historically known as Tianfang (heavenly square or heavenly place, (the kaaba)) in pre modern china.
