It's not like there are any other country that has anything as iconic, martial or strategic when it comes to war.
Like China what do they have in mainstream entertainment apart from Jacky Chan comedies, or Hong Kong action cop flicks, or ghost stories, or HK martial art stories, or Bruce Lee, or ancient martial art stories, or Shao Lin monks.
Like seriously when was the last time you think China and massive warfare. Where in mainstream culture outside of a strategy site would have heard of the three kingdoms, autumn and spring, or the red cliffs or the terracotta soldiers.
Its not like Chinese martial arts is so main stream that kids movies would be based on them like some sort of Kung Fu Panda thing.
Or famous generals of like the red faced general or that other one that no one talks about outside of military geeks... like Son Chew or something or rather.
Nope I confuse all of that all the time with Samurai just like every other Gui Lao.
