    I admire it, it was one of the most advanced nations in the world until the Renaissance, but until that, nobody was more advanced technologically than them. I wonder who would win in a "what if" scenario where the Romans and the dinasty that I don't remember the name right now fought against.

    Didn't the Chinese have trade with the Romans during ancient times?

    There are accounts of chinese explorers reaching the shores of the Andes, so I'd say that the Chinese were well ahead of them, plus the Romans already were having trouble keeping their lands peacefull enough.

    Nope, just true if the Chinese emperor said yes to the expeditions, we would be speaking Chinese and drinking tea on chinaware.

    You'll want to read about Zheng He and his expeditions.
