This is in fact also a reflection of the idea in Chinese history that China was the center of the world. When China was at its flourishing point, its influence stretching far and wide, its development of economy and politics has been based on culture. So in the early period of Hu and Han conflicts, economic and political considerations were not so important as cultural considerations.
這種多元化中心的臃腫症，實際也是過去中國中心論的歷史反映，但在中國光被四表的時代，經濟政治的發展，都以文化總其成，因此早期的胡漢衝突中，經濟與政治的考慮不如文化的考慮為高。
