Hello! I'm an international student from Austria and I am in Los Angeles a good walker (have done 4500 meters of altitude in one day), but have no climbing experience. I decided that when I finish my studies before coming to business, I go on my own or with a friend to Tibet, whether for a few months to just one or two years, on an adventure. Now I do not want to risk my life, but I do self-examination and just bring my backpack and money (you prolly do not need much beyond) to live. I wonder how should I do that? Im not a type of suicide do not want to die, only I experience some of Asia "peace". Im just 19 years old, but I am very mature and very athletic. (I work out very often). I'd like to hike and see a beautiful landscape and such ... I wondered if any of you had some general advice for me. I know that now is not the best time for it (with China 's regime oppressive), but tell me more about how to configure an adventure. Thx!

We hope this can answer your question: First, a correction is from overdue: the word "China" or "Chinese" can not be found in "China" language or "Chinese" rich history records. What? Are you kidding? NO, I'm not kidding. 1) "China" and "Chinese" were imposed / used by the Europeans, a reference to where where he was a china plate. But before the first Europeans set their sights on China, either a plate of rice or a cup of tea, people living on that land already had a name for your country. It is called Zhong Guo. The literal translation is the "Middle Kingdom". 2) What about its peoples? How to deal with each other? There is over fifty ethnicities living in Zhong Guo. The Tibetan people are one of them. The word "Tibet" or "Tibet" was also imposed by Europeans. But long before the Europeans (the English) landed on Tibet, Tibetans called themselves "BOD" or "po". This word is still in use, referring to both the place and the people. 3) Therefore, a question like "When was the first Chinese invasion of Tibet?" is an oxymoron. The fallacy is comparable to a hypothetical question: "When did Native Americans invade Navajo or Apache tribal lands?" In the U.S., you have Navajo, Cherokee, Choctaw, Sioux, Chippewa, Apache, etc. Zhong Guo, they have Han, Hui, Mian, Zang, Zhuang ... ... plus some 50 ethnic groups living in the land called the Middle Kingdom. 4) Therefore, like the Navajo people, who are ethnic Native Americans, the Tibetan people are an ethnic Chinese. What? How can you say that Tibetan people are an ethnic Chinese? Yes, they are. However, their culture, clothing and food are so different than the Chinese, if you object to my assertion. Be calm, my friend. When you say "Chinese" probably refer to Han Chinese, which is just one of many ethnic groups in China. But there's at least one dozen other ethnic minorities in China, whose culture, language, dress and forms of worship are as alien, if not more, as those of Tibetans! Then, what makes the Tibetan issue come to mind? The short answer is by the English and the CIA 's-never-ending meddling. The long answer is, well, we explain the long one: 5) As early as the seventh century, Tibetans and ethnic Han Chinese established close ties through marriage real things, the daughter of Han emperor married the head of the Tibetan tribe. The alliance was further strengthened in military and political union by mutual agreement or a bilateral practice, Han Chinese officials (or other ethnic Chinese who took control of the dynasty) came to Tibetan tribal court to assist in the administration and defense matters, while the Court of Tibet sent its officials to cut the central government. For a very long time, the China Central Court subsidized the Tibetan court. 6) This is a specific in Yuan Dynasty, which was controlled by ethnic Meng Chinese, or Mongols: In the middle of the thirteenth century (about 100 years later William the Conqueror invaded England), Tibet was formally incorporated in the Chinese territory of the Yuan Dynasty. Yuan Emperor Kublai entrusted the power to administer Tibet region to the Sakya sect, the creation of the General Council (renamed Political Council in 1288) was a central government organ exercising administrative power on the country's Buddhist affairs and Tibetan affairs. The Yuan government instituted the system of imperial preceptor, whose job was to confer titles leaders political and religious, to delimit administrative divisions, the appointment of local officials to take census, to collate and stipulate revenue and taxes for divide the Tibet region into thirteen Wan Hu (ten thousand households). The heads of Wan Hu were conferred upon and appointed directly by the Yuan Court. There were three Chief Military Commands offices of the Commissioners of peace ', which took over the garrison troops and the administrative affairs of the various Wan Hu Offices in Tibet proper and other Tibetan areas. (This paragraph was of historical records in China's authorized websites. I can not do otherwise since Yuan dynasty was about AD 1270-1370, and no other country can provide a detailed record on this issue. ) 7) This type of integrity has kept its steadfastness until the 19th century, when China's Qing Dynasty was vitally crippled by the opium trade imposed by the English. In 1888, the English invaded Bhutan and from there launched its first attack on Tibet. The invasion Tibetan met fierce resistance (see http://scholar.ilib.cn/A-xzdxxb200403002.html). In 1904 the English army, led by Francis Younghusband, launched its second invasion on Tibet. "Younghusband slaughtered Gyangze Tibetans in 1300. (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Younghusband) In the records Chinese, the British had killed more than 5000 Tibetans in all at the end of the invasion. The Anglo-Tibetan Treaty of 1904 was forced upon the Tibetans. This was at a time that the Tibetans' usual protector, the Emperor of China, could not even protect himself from the uprisings inside, she could not keep European powers from outside at bay. (The Qing Dynasty ended in 1911.) But in 1906 the English made the Anglo-Chinese Convention with the Emperor Qing. It confirmed the Anglo-Tibetan Treaty of 1904, Britain agreed "not to annex Tibetan territory or to interfere in the administration of Tibet" while that China exercise no "to allow any foreign state to interfere with the territory or internal administration of Tibet". In the Anglo-Russian Convention 1907, prepared by the British, Britain also recognized the "sovereignty of China over Tibet" and, in accordance with the accepted principle such, committed to "not enter into negotiations with Tibet, but by the intermediary of the Chinese Government" (The above was from Wikipedia. (seehttp: / / en.wikipedia.org / Wiki / Tibet # Sven_Hedin.27s_expeditions) 9) In 1914, China was in chaos. The English seized the chance to shovel "the Simla Convention" down Tibet and China's throats. By this treaty, the English are partition Tibet into two, Inner Tibet and Outer Tibet. (Incidentally, this treaty was the main Because of the border dispute between India and China.) China resisted, to no avail. In the end, Tibetans signed the treaty under pressure from English, while China's government refused to sign. Soon the World War I began, soaking everyone in it. When it ended, China was becoming a victim the hand of the Japanese despite that China sided with the Allies. So the revolution ensued. Young Chinese are going abroad in droves to find ways to save the country. They are supported by Russia, while the English and Americans refused (for the obvious reason that they intended to maintain its extraterritoriality a form of colony over which China had no sovereignty). This was the main reason that the Chinese Communist Party was growing fast and popular among the mass of China. Then the war anti-Japanese invasion, World War II and the Civil War occurred. Tibet was in neglect. 10) In 1949, she established the Republic Of China. Mao Zedong declared that new China shall "abolish all unequal treaties imposed on the peoples of China by foreign powers." This certainly includes treaties coerced Tibetans by the English. The Communist Party Army, called Peoples Liberation Army (PLA), chased the Army national, supported by the U.S. and the United Kingdom to the ends of the territory of China, including Tibet. Tibetans joined forces of the army to resist. They were simply not a match. However, Mao Zedong had no intention to crush or overthrow Dalai Lama regime. Remained intact. Dalai Lama's theocracy and its privilege, basically were the same as it had been. The Dalai Lama was happy when he was invited to Beijing to sign an agreement with Mao in 1951. Four years later, he and another Lama were at top Chinese central government and the PLA undertook the defense of Tibet. The centuries-old tradition came back and Lama delivered a speech in praise of it when he addressed the National People's Congress. Everything was going well until, 11) Well, here comes a part that is difficult to relate. Even if I can describe it, that probably do not. Part of the reason is that Hollywood, the media and publishers had rarely exposed (for purposes that do not yet know), Part of the reason is its uniqueness in the way the Dalai Lama regime governs its people before 1959. It was a serfdom in an extreme form plus a theocracy in the highest degree. This is a story told by my friend, who happened to be an aid to another Lama Pancho, Pancho is the second in Tibetan theocratic hierarchy. But Unike Dalai Lama, Panchan stay in China and lived in Beijing. About 1986, toured Panchan in southwestern Tibet, took my friend with him. What surprised my friend (who is not an ethnic Tibetan, but a man of Chinese origin) is that the region was so religious, so worship Lama, the whole entourage could hardly move the crowd Panchan for the people next door, What blocked their progress is not only the pious crowd, but also the money thrown at them by the inhabitants of the Tibetan people. For every 10 -20 Meters, Panchan limo driver and my friend had to stop to remove the paper money piling up in the windshield. This was around 1985, when China was about to develop, Inside China remains affected by poverty, still inside Tibet. But Panchan pious villagers gave all they got, when he had gone money, they start throwing bronze bracelet, bead necklace or whatever you believe value-worth in the environment. This was his first time to see a Panchan, a reincarnation of his belief. They had no reason to book, because your life w
