Western Imitation of China (復制中國)

Western Imitation of China (or: 復制中國, Fùzhì zhōngguó, "copying China") is an observational explanation for perceived flaws in historical records that are taken as proofs that the alleged achievements, architectural and cultural, of ancient civilisations in the West, taken to include Europe, particularly Greece and Rome, as well as Egypt, the Levant, &c., are modern fabrications no more than a few centuries old that were constructed to inflate the West and to demean China, the only true historical civilisation.
