This has been something I have thought up from spacebattles that I was wondering about. What would happen if the Han Dynasty from the Height of their power had all their land scooped up and placed in Middle Earth? This is not so much of a vs debate as of how people would react kind of debate. How would this scenario go down?
1. What would the People of Middle Earth think of chinese Culture, Music, Art, Architecture, Language?
2. How well would Chinese forces compare to armys of MIddle Earth at that time?
3.How well would they get along
4. What would the Chinese think of Middle Earth
5. The timeline of this is ither the Second Age of Middle Earth or the Third Age of Middle Earth I just have not thought of a good location of where they should be put.

Re: China in Middle Earth

hope my info helps you
suspicion but not overt they'd be seen as another Gondor basically it would throw a massive monkey wrench in Sauron and Sarumans plans they'll probably get overtures by the white council...it would be interesting to see how the Chinese react to a bunch of immortals who can telepthically UT their languageCiv001 wrote:1.

they might be seen as pariahs due to some of their more unsavory practices but i can see trade so long as they agree to fight the forces of darkness. on the other hand both mordor and Isengard will be trying to subvert the place
in the third age they'd either be a major power or a thrall state and a very massive and dangerous one. I think they'd be second to Gondor and mordor but probably able to contribute far more troopsCiv001 wrote:2. How well would Chinese forces compare to armys of MIddle Earth at that time?
they'll probably make good trading partners with the Dwarves easterling nations will be a constant issue for them Barbarian horde type xanyu situation basically. the Western powers might reach out to them and trade and all the elves ignore them until they push into their territoryCiv001 wrote: 3.How well would they get along
Dwarves would ignore them unless sought out but probably would trade
the cultural shock would be dramatic to say the least how they'd react to the supernatural stuff and what have you..will shape what happens to themCiv001 wrote: 4. What would the Chinese think of Middle Earth
they'd be a major power in the third age in the second age I can see them being a vassal kingdom of Numenor who would use them as a means to pacify the east. if they end up in good with the faithful it'll do well and they'll learn allot and then be a massive power...if not..i feel sorry for the alliesCiv001 wrote:5.

I know it is dissapointing that none has thought to answer this. Although most people say that Han Dynasty armys can't compare with Gondor is that true?

Re: China in Middle Earth
in terms of armor and metallurgy and the fact that Gondor did still have a decent population of superhuman by real world standard men...no not especially they outnumber them but breaching minas Tirith isn't ever happening they can probably manage a victory through enough casualties to completely remove the Hans as a power though.Civ001 wrote:I know it is dissapointing that none has thought to answer this.

it also depends on which era you are basing that off of at it's prime the united kingdoms are essentially a Diet version of Numenor..at it's weakest lead by crazy ol'Denethor is another story entirely
