According to roar it's not an invasion if you claim you have a historical ownership of the land or water.
So China has not invaded Tibet and various SEA countries' economic zones.
China is preparing their people to take this even a step further. The book written by Xi Ping called Xi Ping Thought, includes sections where Xi Ping says Chinese people did not come from Africa but are their own race totally seperate and everyone else came from black Africans, but there is no black in Chinese. Furthermore Xi Ping goes on to say that China is the birth place of all of Asia and all Asians are Chinese brothers and should act collectively under the CCP to combat the West.
Read between the lines, and he's saying they are the superior race and all Asian peoples are basically Chinese and should be controlled by the CCP. I can't imagine why Xi Ping is telling his people this... maybe you guys can take a guess
And by the way, state employees in China, which includes about 100 million people, are required to take tests from time to time that tests their knowledge on this book to ensure they understand and follow its teachings. China is also in the process of integrating the book's teachings into the school curriculum
