Cheng Qiang, A Chinese living in Latin America.

Historically, Both countries were once the most affluent, Until the West bandits stole their money, Stolen money to make the West to become wealthy, until today.

So take a look at how affluent today's West, Then you know how wealthy yesterday's East, Because this money stolen from the east.

历史上，两国都曾经是最富裕的国家。

后来西方土匪洗劫了这两个国家，结果是西方富裕了起来，并保持到现在

看看今天的西方是多么的富裕，就能想象昨天的东方多么的富足。
