China has fought many wars, but probably less than most European powers.

Although China is thousands of years old, and a former empire, it focused more on unifying its peoples and protecting them against foreign threats, like Mongolian tribes.

China did conquer foreign territory Like Vietnam and Korea, but it was mostly happy having control of China, which was one of the largest and most advanced societies for thousands of years, until Europe became dominant from the 17th century on.

They did however make surrounding nations pay tribute to China.
