Tibet (Tibetan: བོད་, Wylie: Bod) was a de facto independent state in East Asia that lasted from the collapse of the Manchu-led Qing dynasty in 1912 until its annexation by the People's Republic of China in 1951.[1] For centuries the Chinese have claimed Tibet as an "unalienable part of China," despite Tibetans being culturally, historically, linguistically, and religiously distinct from Chinese. Communist China invaded Tibet in 1950. The Dalai Lama and a million Tibetans fled their homeland. They have been replaced by Han Chinese people who hold the best paying jobs and government positions. The Tibetans are second class citizens in their own country. China is forcing Tibetans to speak Mandarin as their first language. Many Tibetans are now in India, but some live in Pakistan and other countries.
