Some of you people have very poor history about this.
It was like some one go into your house, beat the shit out of you, rob you and proudly sell your belongings, but happened between countries.

They should keep the artifacts or else French children might think surrendering has been a long-standing tradition of the French.

Except the "country" that got robbed does not exist anymore. I am glad that the French got it, otherwise, the Communist Government would have destroyed it.

It's like saying even if you didn't got robbed, you would still spend the money anways.
So there is nothing wrong with the robbery.

You might want to take a deeper look in China.
They didn't make it to one of the wealthiest country (No5. gold reserve in the world) and No.1 bond holder of America just by selling counterfeits.

all this POV talk.....spankwire it is.

PS. Let it be, as they say "to the Victor go the spoils."
PPS. We all see the irony in the logic, but if China wants to deal with repatriating stolen treasures they will proceed appropriately.

OP's trying to redeem his name since that jackie chan thread got locked up.

i'd say he's failing again with his narrow-minded views.

many many countries want their artifacts back but bitching and whining at collectors like children isn't gonna get these items back

really the only person who has claim to the emperors items are his descendants but the commies and kuomintang made sure that the majority of them are dead

Please read what I said again, then read:

1) The artifacts belonged to the Qing Dynasty, not the country of "People's Republic of China" that we see today.
2) Puyi was the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
3) Puyi then became the ruler of Manchukuo, a puppet state of Japan.
4) If anything, Japan should have the right to claim the artifacts since they owned Puyi, the real owner of the artifacts.


At the end, Qing lost more than the artifacts because of its arrogance and incompetence. Why does it matter now?

The ironic thing is, if you were in China, making the very same statement about the artifacts during the reign of Mao in the Cultural Revolution, you would be sent to labor camps and be tortured to death.

yeah but its part of CHINESE history, despite whoever was ruling China at the time. The Chinese still have those ming dynasty vases etc because its a monument to our culture.
