Probably the oldest continuous civilisation in the world. We have one known AH.commer from mainland China and that is Bishop, and there are members of Chinese descent living in other countries, such as Aozhouhuaren, and more infamously, HelloLegend. Jonathan Kan hails from Hong Kong, and godel.chen is a member living in Taiwan. There are several Western Sinophiles on the board speaking up for Chinese-focused AH, such as Faeelin, Sargon and Hendryk.

A running joke on the board is that absolutely everything was invented in China first - not just the usually stated gunpowder, printing, movable type etc., but also exaggeration, censorship, America, imagination and, notably, bears (a fact deduced by Dave Howery). However, they have yet to invent a decent pudding.
