imported>Sol Pacificus m I personally like to avoid appelling 'empire' to Chinese dynasty names because it was never part of their official names or what they called themselves. I think "Song China" can be correct in the same way as "Ptolemaic Egypt", but the name for the state was just Song. / Is "warrior" the name of a Mongol rank? |
