    It helps that KFC is actually good outside the US.

    Taiwan (officially the Republic of China) definitely does think of itself as Chinese. The part they disagree with is the "People's Republic" part, not the "China" part.

    Welp, I guess Scotland support of Kentucky now. Good luck Kentucky, we are your problem and the republicans are not going to like us.

    Real colonizer energy. One of the benefits of central planning and long terms in power is that influence that takes time, becomes viable, like cultural erasure, rewriting of history and the generational impact of intentional cultural narratives.

    China is a collection of conquered people's with their own languages, traditions and history that stretch far beyond even the first colonialist Qin unification, a unification accomplished at the tip of a sword, with blood and violence. None of those conquered people ever chose to be labeled Chinese by their conquerors. They were forced into servitude.

    Same as any state. States can only be created and perpetuated through violence.

    It would probably be hilarious if Mainland China was part of Kentucky, specifically.

    Like if it was California that would be lame.

    But in a situation like the old kingdoms X modern states in Europe have it today.

    China is a semi-autonomous community of the crown/colonel hat of Kentucky but not a part of the republic of USA.
