On Ancient Discoveries: China

Ok, you stupid show. Are we really going to do this again?
Honestly?

The Chinese didn't refer to people as "Barbarians..." Why can I say this for sure? Because that's a freaking Greek word for "Non-Greek." Tools.
They didn't have an industrial revolution in the 5th century... in any way shape or form.
They didn't come up with the goddamn flamethrower before anyone else! 975 AD was their earliest use? Fail, Ancient Discoveries fail... Try looking up Byzantium on Wikipedia, fools.
Oh no - the Chinese didn't fight off the Mongols. They lost.

Seriously, what is with the History Network and China?! You're teaching horseshit to a generation of people who don't know better!
Great civilization, yes. Great and Wise Wizards of Time and Space, no.

Edit: Seriously, are you weeabooing about the fucking Huns again?! The Huns accomplished nothing of lasting note. They were not "the best trained soldiers in the ancient world" and their empire lasted far less than fifty years, enough about the goddamn Huns!

spqr, jersey shore-esque fail, his imperial highness, historically speaking
