家园 东方的集权主义成因 and French dirgist

dirgiste: both are agricultural nations deep at heart, with a large piece of flat land suitable for agriculture.

Both came into modern border/language at much earlier stage than their neighbors around them. Both cultures mature earlier than their neighbors. Both nations highly respect poets, artists and look down upon bankers, merchants... (not same today in China and not the same between Northern Chinese and Southern Chinese. but still the same problem in France now).

Both have symmetrical royal palaces. Both nations' capitals are the political and commercial centers.

Both nations look at America as unsophisticated uncultured bastards and both nationals deep in their heart believe that their cultures should be the global standards and other people should follow and look up to...(Chinese has this kind of pride until the Opium Wars, which completely smashed this sense of pride. But this sense is coming back now back in today's China).

The list will go on... I am sure Monsieur Li can give you more facts on the French history.

I write English because the system does not support chinese input. Also my Chinese input speed is extremely slow. It is easier for me to express myself in English now.

Nice chat and thanks/merci.
