I see a lot of posts rejecting the Qing as a chinese dynasty. But isn't doing so the same as rejecting the legitimacy of PRC rule over xinjiang, tibet, manchuria and taiwan etc? After all, these places were added to chinese terrorities by the Qing. Before the Qing, these places were just vassal states just like japan. The Ming dynasty only control half the landmass of the PRC. So make up your minds, is the Qing not a chinese dynasty or is the PRC an invader of those lands?
