What's India China? (Other than what I consider minor territory disputes at the border.)

    India and China have a long standing but currently somewhat muted territorial thing.

    It’s not full blown war, but only because they agreed not to use firearms so they just hit each other with sticks.

    Edit: Israel to India

    They do get into some wild border clashes without guns though, some of my favorite modern war videos. Bunch of dudes shoving and whacking each other with axe handles.

    So do Israel Palestine, or Azerbaijan and Armenia, Guyana and Venezuela, India and Pakistan.

    Come on man, these are all subjects you can “look into” and then pretend you understand them while lording it over people and telling them that they should brush up on their reading comprehension.

    Get on that train!
