Soong overthrew Tang dynasty,and certainly take all territory of Tang.Because of Governmental corruption,peasants uprising and Jinn tribe,liao tribe overthrew the government,and emperor flee with officer from Northern China to southern china.
Soong is devided into North Soong and South Soong. |

Ok, I'm a military historian. There is a BIG difference between Mongols and Mongolians in view of the historic context. The Jinns did not consider themselves Han nor Tang. The Ming certainly did not feel Mongols belonged in China. And how long did the rest of China considered the Qing foreign occupiers?
To say they're all Chinese today is fine but back in their time, it is NOT correct to state that they were Chinese. They were not. They were different peoples with different styles of governments with different agendas. If is FROM that perspective that you've got to view things. To state that the Mongol Empire stretching from Europe to China was a Chinese Empire is false and extremely misleading. If it were so, then why did the Ming and the Poles fought so hard to kick the Mongols out? |

I've been to China and I understand what you're trying to say but what you're not understanding is that the Jinns, Laos, etc, did not replace their rulers. They kicked them out and set up independent kingdoms. That made them distinct from the Soongs or Hans or Tangs. Until Kublai united them all under one banner, they were not one country, let alone one people.
