Tell me about south east asians, who are they? whats their history? are they closer to east asians or south asians? why can't they into relevancy
>>
>>1959940
They're basically the cross-cultural zone between India and China. On the far west you have Burma which is the closest to India both geographically and culturally, and on the far east there's a similar relationship between Vietnam and China.

>why can't they into relevancy
They're very relevant when it comes to dictators, opium and child prostitution.

The region is actually bretty relevant in history due to the trade routes that passed there.

The Indonesians have always been a peaceful people, and thus, the spread of Islam to Indonesia happened in a peaceful manner through traders. The Indonesian people have prospered since then, having a history of several benevolent islamic leaders.

Philippines was heading the way of Malaysia/Indonesia until Spain arrived.

The Philippines was split between the highly organized, Muslim state entities with their trading & raiding and their victims, the last of the Flip pagans, who were also traders and raiders albeit less successful.

Since arriving in the place in the 1520s, Spain was initially btfo repeatedly by Muslim Flips, so they wised up in the 1560s by offering a conversion-for-protection scheme to the Pagans. Basically they built empty fortified towns with a church and told the pagans "You can live in here, with your cultures and your nobility will be honored but only if you convert to catholicism and think Charles V/Philip II is the greatest human who ever lived." Thinking that they'll just build a trade post and get out of the way of Muslim Flips.

And then the unthinkable happened: pagans were fuck desperate and converted in droves to avoid Muslim dicking and Spain accidentally united a huge portion of Filipino ethnic groups under the Cross and the Crown. and promptly used the Proto-Filipinos to destroy Muslim power in the Archipelago.

However, they only triumphed versus the Northern Muslim States. The guys down south pulled every contact they knew from Malaysia and Indonesia and resisted better, with Spain finally stopping due to threats from Japan, China, and the Dutch/Anglos during the 1600s-1700s.

SEA is mostly a blend of indigenous people and a constant Chinese immigrants. India just spread Buddhism. They never significantly emigrated or mixed genetically with SEA. So I'd say they're closer genetically to Chinese but closer culturally to India.
The darker skin should just be attributed to the indigenous due to historical closeness to the equator.
SEA is appropriately relevant considering its size.

There's a difference between where Turks came from historically and the genetic make-up of modern Turks.

Modern Turks are something of a mongrel race with more Caucasian and Middle Eastern influence than Central Asian.

Family of minde did that as well. In fact it is quite common for a dutch person to have some relatives fighting in that war, as we literally send the biggest dutch army ever to that war.

My great-grandpa was from an old noble family that seems to have been perpetually broke and pretty much relied on marrying daughters of rich industrialists to stay afloat and maintain their lifestyle.

In his 20's he invested quite a bit in Indochina, mostly in rubber farms. Ended up living there for a while. Great investment, it made him ridiculously rich. Though he managed to lose it all, in part because of the 1929 crisis but mostly because of gambling. But that's another story.

Anyway, he had dozens of bastards with Vietnamese women. But it was an open secret, he sent them a bit of money every month. Even his wife (that he married when coming back to France) knew. My grandpa helped them to move to France once we got out of there. I met some of them and their descendants, it was interesting. These women were servants, employees (or wifes of employees), a few were basically high-class prostitutes/"concubines".

It's still possible, there are more new rich eager to emulate traditional elites than ever, and they're ready to do anything to get that sweet, sweet nobiliary particle. Back then it was Americans who married into European nobility, nowadays in my experience it's Americans, Jews in general but sephardi ones in particular, and a few Europeboos Asians. I've had dumb rich girls get 100 times more interested in me once they saw my signet ring with my family's coat of arms on it, or once they find out that I have a "noble" surname. I'm not even a particularly great looking guy, but it gets their princess fantasies rolling to imagine that one day they could called "countess".

I've been fascinated by SEAn (and Tibetan) culture for a while now, probably because it's known so little, but mostly because it seems like adding Indian and Chinese toppings together goes with anything.

I'm a language nerd, so I've recently started trying to teach myself Vietnamese, but I really haven't been able to get past phonetics yet (and since it uses a Latin-based script, I really want to get that part passably correct before falling into bad habits). I picked it because having an Austroasiatic (i.e. related to Khmer) language get raped by Chinese vocabulary a la English by French can only result in something unique. Likewise for Burmese being a Sino-Tibetan language heavy into Sanskrit borrowings, so I may try to learn that next.

Meanwhile, while I'm not entertaining learning the languages just yet, I was able to learn the Thai (and Tibetan) alphabets after lots of effort. The way they're so mindbogglingly complicated makes me wish the Vietnamese had also developed their own alphabet, since stronger Chinese influences could only make theirs even worse (better). I can only imagine what a Japanese-like mish-mash Chinese characters with a Brahmi based script would have been like.

I'm pretty sure Vietnam did everyone in Cambodia (and quite frankly, the world) a favor by removing the Khmer Rouge.

I was in the North for a couple of days hiking (came down from China). And in Vientiane for a day.
Didn't seem dangerous at all (although supposedly the Hmong are still weapon-hoarding). The shittiest, most degenerate tourist town got shut down. There are warnings about not participating in sex trafficking. People seem nice enough.
Lot of Frenchies. Lot of Chinese in Vientiane.
Language is a lot like southern Chinese minority languages, and in turn like Thai. Food can be great.

Seriously why? not only its not true, its simply Ignorant, refer to >>1963169, >>1963189, and in the case of Indonesia there's more than one sub races, from Austroasians, Austronesians, to Australoid Melanesians

Speaking of which, what exactly are the Chinese influences in SEA, actually?

What direct influences did China have in the region in the past?

it depends whether its exact same chinese spring rolls or not, its not fair to say that SEA just replicate china, its more of the case that SEA can be seen as cultural extension of east asia and south asia.

we do adopt noodles and tofu from china for example, but we make it our own, according to local taste, just like japanese ramen and korean ramyeon are adapted from chinese lamian, and the same way europeans shared common pasta and cheese based dishes though pasta originates from italy

Indonesia in general doesn't really care anymore. Yeah they got some leftover architecture and the only reason Jakarta isn't flooded is because of old Dutch hydro-architecture. That's pretty much it.

>Indonesia in general doesn't really care anymore.
There are some people interested in reviving the Indo-Dutch diaspora/ethnicity, or something ancestry like that. Sounds great though, after all the shit they supposedly went through. Although from my own experience and knowledge, a lot of them are important figures. They're part of the powerful middle and upper class, not the refugee kind of thing like in the Netherlands. A revolutionary war is a civil war, after all, so it's unsurprising that people can find Indo-Dutch on both sides. Also, the compromise after the war has ended might allow them to keep at least some of their privileges.

The early 50s were a period of turmoil and instability. Every single special snowflake group rose and rebelled.

Depends on which Southeast Asians. Thais are the blessed children of the Chakri Dynasty and the immortal sires of the Sukhothai Kingdom that ruled over Greater Siam - the first and only power to conquer the entire Indochina Peninsula atop the ruins of the fallen Khmer Empire.

Meanwhile, Indonesia:
>inferior food in general (especially compared to Thai cuisine)
>inferior martial arts (more people rightly practice Muay Thai)
>poor quality of life leading to boat people bound for Australia
>colonized by Europe but learned nothing
>dominated by worst religion (Islam)
>ugly women with awful fashion sense (even by Islamic standards)
>inferior Javanese genetics
>Jakarta is at least 20 years behind Bangkok
>non-presence in global consciousness (more people know about Bali)
>more unwelcoming to foreigners and tourists than any other Asian country
>outlawed Christmas and Valentine's Day due to Islamic paranoia
>poorly defined national identity
>flag is just Poland flipped upside down
>language is just distorted Malay

4th most populated country in the world and most people don't even know they exist. Indonesians themselves didn't even remember they had a seafaring empire until a Dutch archaeologist stumbled on some ancient ruins and started doing all the research.

Synopsis

Each year, thousands of women travel to Bali in search of paradise. And many find it in the arms of Kuta Cowboys, the bronzed beach ambassadors whoʼve made the island one of the worldʼs leading destinations for female sex tourists.

COWBOYS IN PARADISE gets between the sheets of Baliʼs ʻholiday romanceʼ trade to reveal some of the islandʼs most closely-guarded secrets. The film also charts the typical trajectory of a Cowboyʼs life, from entry into beach life to his heartbreaking descent into obsolescence. By the end, the myth of paradise is shattered and the viewer is presented with a more realistic proposition: Paradise is always elsewhere.

I also like to add the curious stance on Indonesia from the perspective of some old dutch folks.
I am talking about the really old dutch people (>80 years) here, but most of them won't feel apologetic about the colonial past at all, in fact most of them will still declare 'that we did something great there' and such. The dutch have never accepted their colonial heritage as something with an inherently dark aspect. This is also the reason why we still don't speak about a colonial war when we talk about the independence war, but 'politionele acties' (literally translated: police actions). The dutch saw ( and the old people still see themselves) themselves as bringers of civilization instead of colonizers

Indonesia have many different ethnicities, Malays being one of them, however the dominant ethnic here are the Javanese which accounts up to 60 percent of the population, Javanese are different from Malays, racially Javanese are more Austroasian while Malays are more Austronesian with slight Indian admixture, also despite being muslims, javanese culture is more Hindu-Buddhist oriented while Malay culture is much more Islamic oriented

>>1985620
>island offshoot of Malay
Quite the opposite, most major Hindu-Buddhist Malay kingdoms, like Srivijaya, is located and originated in Indonesia, also, most Peninsular Malaysian Sultanates trace their origins and are formed by settlers who originally came from Sumatra, who fled after they lost war against Javanese Majapahits

To be honest, this screams of pseudo science to me, but leaving that aside, the graph itself has some problems that stop me from taking it seriously.

Why is the red group split in two around the light green group? Why is the first red group actually mostly dark red in the chart to the right? What's dark red even supposed to mean? What about white and purple? Why are Javanese on the green group if they're mostly red? Who even made this graph and what methodology did they use?

Dutch people are stubborn and opinionated, but they're not totally wrong on that one. It is acknowledged that the civilizing programs happened in the late 19th and early 20th century. Schools for natives were allowed and opening up here and there, political parties popping up, etc.

It's not inherently dark. Why would they be salty about it? Thanks to them we got our own independence. It's even written on the school textbooks here.

>>1988942
>genes are pseudoscience
I blame the American Public Education system, honestly.

His pic is from a paper that was in Science in 2009, titled "Mapping Human Genetic Diversity in Asia".

The caption for that specific figure is
>Maximum-likelihood tree of 75 populations. A hypothetical most-recent common ancestor (MRCA) composed of ancestral alleles as inferred from the genotypes of one gorilla and 21 chimpanzees was used to root the tree. Branches with bootstrap values less than 50% were condensed. Population identification numbers (IDs), sample collection locations with latitudes and longitudes, ethnicities, language spoken, and size of pop- ulation samples are shown in the table adjacent to each branch in the tree. Linguistic groups are indicated with colors as shown in the legend. All population IDs except the four HapMap samples are denoted by four characters. The first two letters indicate the country where the samples were collected or (in the case of Affymetrix) genotyped, according to the following convention: AX, Affymetrix; CN, China; ID, Indonesia; IN, India; JP, Japan; KR, Korea; MY, Malaysia; PI, the Philippines; SG, Singapore; TH, Thailand; and TW, Taiwan. The last two letters are unique IDs for the population. To the right of the table, an averaged graph of results from STRUCTURE is shown for K = 14.

I'm not a geneticist (and neither are you) so the methodology is gibberish as far as I'm concerned. I've no idea if sci-hub can be linked directly on 4chan and I don't care enough to find out but the DOI is 10.1126/science.1177074 so slap that baby into sci-hub and check the paper out if you're actually interested and aren't just nit picking autistically.

As >>1989362 said
You can't dismiss genetic study, language is a very fluid category since it's always affected by socio-political change, thus its less reliable to determine racial differences by it : for example, by your definition, Papuans are categorically Austronesians just because they speak Indonesian
>>
>>1989362
>genes
It's the accuracy of naming haplotype groups, and with linguistic families at that, that I have qualms against.

I read the paper and while it does explain the graph a bit better and addresses some of the inconsistencies (like the separated "Austro-Asiatic" linguistic group at the bottom), it doesn't answer all my questions about the colors and it keeps me wondering as to why they would even try to name (some of) them at all.

What's more, without Cambodians and Vietnamese to compare, and ignoring the names given to the haplotypes unless you can give me a reason not to, the graph only shows that peninsular speakers of Austroasiatic languages (almost) constantly show a mix of the haplotypes represented by red and blue; while Javanese and Sundanese show slightly more of that "red" haplotype than Malays (but even then, it's not like the Malays are devoid of it anyway), and that Malays do indeed show consistent proportions of the haplotypes that predominate in India, but all of them have barely any "blue".

If Cambodians and Vietnamese appeared on that graph and they were mostly red, I'd say you have a point. So far, the closest evidence you have of the sort is the Mal people. Otherwise, the only claim you can make is that Javanese and Sundanese have had less admixture with Indians than the Malays.
>>
>>1989670
That wasn't quite my point, though. Of course you can't reliably use language to determine racial heritage, as languages spread more easily than genes. That makes it all the more necessary to justify the naming of a haplogroup thoroughly if you're gonna do it at all.

The definitely did good things, I won't deny that. But the colonial attitude that a lot of those old people have was ( and is) that the indonesians were just savages who needed to be guided to the light by dutch civilization. Yeah, partly this might be true but a huge part of the colonial history was basically the exploitation of Indonesia by the dutch, there was no civilization argument for that, yet the dutch people don't want to be confronted with that aspect too much because it doesn't fit our national narrative of 'liberalism and tolerance, we were one of the first modern nations in the world etc'

Anyway i live in the South, this part used to be belong to the Khmers (and before that, Funan) and the Chams. Our language is somehow related to Khmer (i have noted some cognates and the similar structure). Viets were ooga boogas before our ancient kingdoms get annexed by Chinese.

Also the Acehs in Indonesia are related to Chams, and Rades in Vietnam's Central Highland. I actually know one "muh heritage" Cham girl, although she can't speak the language and completely Kinh'd.

Aside from some sultanates, a lot of tribes in Nusantara (at the time the Dutch arrived) could still be considered savages. My own ethnic for example dabbled in cannibalistic rituals and considered those outside of the tribe as subhumans, only good as slaves (and the aforementioned cannibal sacrifice). Compared to that, the Dutch at the time invented modern law and adopting humanism, even though it only applied to whites of course.

Even the combined GDP of the sultanates probably wouldn't beat the Netherlands at the time. This is just pure hunch though.

We used to control the maritime and spice trade route, we were much more well off than we are right now, actually we're probably more richer than the dutch before their arrival, less advanced of course, but well of, and the sultanates are quite informed in term of technology, they adopt firearms, ship technology etc from their surrounding trade partners, they're probably at the same level as indochina countries. There's nothing wrong with admitting that the dutch did build alot of stuff, but also destroy alot of stuff
Are you batak btw?

I used to think like that, but Western European proto-machinery were just too OP. Shit like windmills and so on enabled agriculture to be worked on more efficiently. It all started after the Black Death, I think. They had a lot of time, more productions, growing fresh population. Firearms, better access in steel quality (in proportion to its price in mass quantity, from Germany). The Dutch particularly was in their golden age when they first arrived here.

They built and destroy, how is it different than Mataram conflicts episode 1 or 2? Or how Majapahit conquered remnants of Srivijaya? And so on. They're just another conquerors, I don't harbor love nor hatred towards them.

Their and the Dutch economy were still too entertwined at that point. There was no substantial native Indonesian economic infrastructure and the Dutch were not going to lose an investment of 300 years to some local pseudocommunist strongman. Besides; shit was a mess in the post war period - and the Indonesians weren't angels themselves with two wars of agression and several genocidal massacres.

Do you start learning Vietnamese history in like the 2nd millennium BCE like the Wikipedia page starts?

Also, while this is completely off-topic, I must ask: What accent of Vietnamese do you consider to be more "neutral"? Hanoi, Saigon or somewhere in the center?
>>
>>1993976
Northern dialect is a most "neutral", although they still have their local slangs and pronunciation mistakes (they pronounce "n" to "l", so they actually say Hà Lội instead Hà Nội). The Southern one (the one that i speak) sounds like rednecks, people are too lazy to pronounce everything correctly. And the Central dialects are just...weird.

Nice.

Thanks. It's nice to see that such consensus is upheld even by people from the south.

I asked because I noticed some learning material for Vietnamese is actually based on the southern dialect (notably the FSI course, but also several learning channels on YouTube), which I found weird given that most sources I've found considered only the northern (Hanoi) dialect to be the standard, getting used in Vietnamese media and being the most widely understood throughout Vietnam.

When I think of Thai women I think of one girl in particular. She was in an episode of Parts Unknown (Anthony Bourdain). She's the daughter of a couple who own a street restaurant. She's dedicated to her family and their business but she wants to be married and doesn't discriminate against white men. Cute, witty, completely unlike and superior to most of the girls I interact with where I am.

As a white male this is the kind of girl I would want to be involved with there. Not a little girl or a monkey or a tranny.

I'll take this chance to bump this thread away from oblivion.

Which (regional or otherwise) powers are SEA countries more on friendly terms with? India, China, America, Japan?
>>
>>1997725
Officially we all supposed to go against China, but on the back it varies, with some being essentially Chinese vassal states while others though hates china are economically indebted to them
Vietnam is the only country who still stands up against China, Philippines goes from absolutely hating them to nearly worship them because of their new leader

All countries have good to normal relation with America, though some have bad view of them because of their history with them

Japan is seen as good investors and trading partners, though some had bad history with them like with America

Didn't Thailand arrest Chinese critics of the CCP on demand whenever they arrived to Thailand and deported them to China?
