Did they deserved to be invaded?

Yes.
It was a shithole and Chinese rule has only improve it.
Just another chapter in Humanity's tendancy towards Imperialism. Unfortunate, and worsened by the fact that communism is hard line atheist, and Tibet was a theocracy

Tibet was backwards medieval shithole compared to even contemporary China.
Why did China bother to invade, btw ?
What did they hope to gain, besides territory ?
>>1180378
Yes. It was a retarded theocratic pseudo-state.
They don't deserve to stay invaded and occupied though. And even less to be outbreed by han immigrants. It's almost genocidal.

Compelling argument faggot

It was Qing so they considered it to be part of China. No normal state tolerates secessionism when it's strong enough to prevent or revert it.

Pretty straightforward and sensible, i would had that china invasion has also a demonstrative value, but i may be wrong

Behead those who insult Avalokiteshvara
Hang the shamans, monastery war now
Yea why would dictator order invasion of weak nation with no military, no allies and completely different ideology and with leader who is possible tread to stability of China?

They had the nerve to ask for Qing Chinese protection from the Gurkhas and the Mongols but suddenly they wanted to get out of the program when their benefactors started weakening?
Got what it deserved desu. They also couldve helped out the Republic versus the Commies but noooo.

Of fucking course?
>start a contract where the chinese offer protection
>the chinese break the contract by being weak, therefore unable to protect shit
>but m-muh five nations! please help us against the commies!
Of all the things Tibet did wrong, seceding from a chinese state that was going to shit was the less important one. Probably not even wrong at all.
It's like Risk, they knew they were coveted

Except this isnt *just* help. The Lamas agreed to Chinese governance as well because they broke their country in shitty monastery versus momastery wars.
>>1180378
Yes. If you secede from a state that state has the right to work to prevent the secession.

Securing Himalayan borders was vital to Mao's five fingers' strategy against other imperialists expansionisms
