I guess you are Chinese then? That makes two of us. Or I could be deadly wrong.
Why was mongolia part of China again? Because once in the history, we ruled the world by the hands of mongols? (of course, another not-so-glorious version would be: once mongolian conquered and ruled China just as what they did to the rest of the world?)
Basically, it's like saying: I feel honored to be conquered by the golden horde, because that makes me part of golden horde too. I don't buy that.
In reality, invasion is invasion, just plain as that. Plus historically, monolian didn't bother to embrace the civlization of the conquered nations. They wanted to change China into their horse-farm and Chinese was placed at the bottom of their social ladder.
Granted, mongols did establish a dynasty in china and capitaled there. However, Mongols was, after all a military tribe. They were really good at applying captured technology onto the battle field, but didn't pay much attention to the culture thing. Their usual (and got to admit, effective too) approach is to capture a city, pillage it, keep the smiths and young women and slaughtered the rest.
I got a feeling that this discussion is getting completely irrelavant, and might be removed soon. Oh, well.

Woooo, I really wanna flame ya Temu, but ppl in here don't like that stuff.
Essentially we shall let it rest at this:
(1) The childish simplicity and shortness of your posts give the impression, rightly or not, that you don't know what you are talking about.
(2) This topic is not appropriate for this forum.
(3) I will ignore you from now on.
No offense intended :-)
