TranscriptA threads post saying "There has never been another nation ever that has existed much beyond 250 years. Not a single one. America's 250th year is 2025. The next 4 years are gonna be pretty interesting considering everything that's already been said." It has a reply saying "My local pub is older than your country".

I used to be in the record business, and worked for a time for a Chinese record company who was releasing indigenous folk and classical music.

Western music traces back about 1000-1200 years, while Chinese music has an unbroken written musical tradition going back several thousands of years.
