For centuries China and India had been the greatest civilizations in the world! Their achievments are astonishing and they contributed to the human civilization as no other civilization did!!! It is pity that Europeans in the past 3-4 centuries destroyed not only India and China but also the rest of the world and have pushed the whole human civilization in a dark age, and we are witnessing nowadays poverty, wars, crimes, drugs and so on all over the world! If the Europeans had not destroyed the ancient civilizations over the past 3-4 centuries the world would be nowadays completely different and much better - the people could enjoy peaceful life and prosperity! I hope that in this century China will be able to recover, India as well, and next generations will enjoy a peaceful life and live in harmony!!!
