so the spread of buddhism into China as well as the Chinese defeat in the first Sino-Indian war was due to euro half breeds.
The standard euro version states that the Tarim inhabitants :
1. conquered their way down to Mathura after being pushed out by the huns
2. set up a powerful empire there
3. and then traced their footsteps back to reconquer their Tarim home base
4. and went on to smite the chinese
5, and were responsible for india's greatest works of art as well as the foreign spread of buddhism
Like the AIT, this seems a most astonishing sequence of miracles. A butterfly flaps its wings in the west and causes a tsunami in India.
