Tibetans are genetically very close or almost identical to Han Chinese.

Tibetan and Chinese share the same linguistic root that is why they are called sino tibetan languages

The Tibetan on the Chinese side of the border have certainly won a lottery for their life and the life of their descendants.

Sikkim, Ladakh and Arunachal people seems hopeless. They would have no future staying with India, a country with different race, language and culture, in addition to the fact that India is still a very backward country and will be so for a foreseeable future. Nominal GDP per capita alone cannot fully express the gap between China and India.

These people should try to be autonomous regions within India, then independent and then try to be annexed by China. They would have no future either if staying alone.

When northeastern Indians go to India proper, they are called chinkies and their women are raped. India just has a lot of scummy and shady people proportionally with zero culture or decency. As Tibet continues to modernize and develop, these northeasterners will wish they were part of a superior and racially similar society.

Migyitun ,One of the very few villages under Chinese control in South Tibet south of The McMahon Line , recovered by China in 1962 China-India border war.

Migyitun, also called Tsari or Zhari, is a town in the Lhöntse County of Tibet's Shannan Prefecture. It is on the banks of the Tsari Chu river close to the McMahon Line, the de facto border with India's Arunachal Pradesh.

It's on the southern slope of The Himalaya Mountains, it's a very wet region rainiing all the time due to the indian ocean monsoon currents hitting The Himalaya mountains at this spot.

Thanks for all the photos and Video about Tibet I have observed Tibet's development for close to half a century. Starting with the Dalai Lama rebellion and the subsequent suppression of the revolt. Tibet is dragged into the modern world kicking and screaming But it warms my heart that they now enjoy peace and prosperity. Meantime new generation grew up better educated, well integrated into the Chinese mainstream. And they take the bull by the horn and claim their place in the sun.

Do you know that Chengdu has one of the highest concentrations of Tibetan with a permanent residence of 200000 and a floating population of close to 2 million. They have a lively and vibrant culture there like this Guozhang dance that ignites the craze of Circle dance or Gorshey all over the world where Tibetans live in the West.

They accuse China of displacing Tibetans in TAR is BS. Because the Chinese can't adapt to high elevation most of the Chinese are in NYngchi to the east of Lhasa Here is the beautiful song and dance of Tibetan compatriots

And I agree that Tibetan is so close to the Chinese look at this beautiful young lady I have a hard time distinguishing her from Han Chinese But these girls are from Garze prefecture close to Chengdu and not from TAR.

I did read that They share common ancestry with the Chinese(Yangshao and Majiayao culture) and split about 2500 BC Some went west and south to become Tibetan

Sino-Tibetan is the second largest language family in the world, spoken by more than 1.3 billion people, predominately in China. It originated in the Yellow River region around 8,000 y ago and expanded to the Tibetan Plateau by 6,000–5,000 y ago during the Neolithic Yangshao culture. This study presents the archaeological investigation into the lifeways of Proto Sino-Tibetan speakers, who migrated from the Yellow River to the NW Sichuan highlands. They may have integrated with indigenous hunter-gatherers and adopted broad-spectrum subsistence strategies, consisting of millet farming and local wild resource foraging. They retained important ritual traditions, particularly the alcoholic fermentation method and communal ritual drinking associated with dancing

Who said Tibetan culture died and China forced Tibetans to become Han Chinese Here is the proof in all the glory of Jiarong Tibetan dance and celebration of their heritage

Those local tribesmen were still head hunters 50 years ago, they had head hunting tradition for hundreds of years but PRC banned their head hunting tradition after 1950's.

Now they live in government buillt houses rather than in the jungle.
