1. "A nation is a historically constituted, stable community of people, formed on the basis of a common language, territory, economic life, and psychological make-up manifested in a common culture." How do we interpret China from this angle, then? Short thread: https://twitter.com/eshaLegal/status/1355713316610564098

2. China is a country of 56 nations, but nowadays, the party speaks of the "Chinese nation" (中華民族), which in the past was interchangeable with the Han nation. However:

3. I think in today's context, due to the fact that the 56 nations form "a historically constituted, stable community of people, formed on the basis of a common language, territory, economic life, and psychological make-up manifested in a common culture," a "supernation" exists

4. It exists in a way that they can all be said to be of a single "Chinese nation," but at the same time, the historical particularities, languages, etc. of all 56 nations have been preserved, so they can in fact be said to all be separate nations - sibling-nations if you will

5. The quoted tweet was deleted for some reason, but basically I was just answering the question "can China and India considered nations by the Marxist definition of the word?"
