BRIEF HISTORY OF TIBET
Map of Tibet showing Historial and Contemporary Boundaries A brief account of Tibet, its origin, how it grew into a great military power and carved for itself a huge empire in Central Asia, then how it renounced the use of arms to practise the teachings of the Buddha and the tragic conseguences that it suffers today as a result of the brutal onslaught of the Communist Chinese forces is given in the following passages. Five hundred years before Buddha Sakyamuni came into this world i.e., circa 1063 B.C., a semi-legendary figure known as Lord Shenrab Miwo reformed the primitive animism of the Shen race and founded the Tibetan Bon religion. According to Bonpo sources there were eighteen Shangshung Kings who ruled Tibet before King Nyatri Tsenpo. Tiwor Sergyi Jhagruchen was the first Shangshung King. Shangshung, before its decline, was the name of an empire which comprised the whole of Tibet. The empire known as Shangshung Go-Phug-Bar-sum consisted of Kham and Amdo forming the Go or Goor, U and Tsang forming the Bar or Middle, and Guge Stod-Ngari Korsum forming the Phug or Interior. As the Shangshung empire declined, a kingdom known as Bod, the present name of Tibet, came into existence at Yarlung and Chongyas valleys at the time of King Nyatri Tsenpo, who started the heroic age of the Chogyals (Religious Kings). Bod grew until the whole of Tibet was reunited under King Songtsen Gampo, when tha last Shangshung King, Ligmigya, was killed.

Tibet
History
Little is known of the beginnings of the Tibetan people. They originated from the nomadic, warlike tribes known as the Qiang. Chinese records of these tribes date back as far as the 2nd century BC. However, the people of Tibet were not to emerge as a politically united force until the 7th century AD. The Tibetans have many myths concerning the origin of the world and themselves. As the myths suggest, the Yarlung Valley was the cradle of the civilization. Credible historical records regarding the Yarlung Valley Dynasty date only from the time when the fledgling kingdom entered the international arena in the 6th century. By this time the Yarlung kings, through conquest and alliances, had unified much of central Tibet. Namri Songtsen (circa 570-619), the 32nd Tibetan king, extended Tibetan influence into inner Asia, defeating Qiang tribes on China's borders. But the true flowering of Tibet as an important regional power came about with Namri Songsten's son, Songtsen Gampo (circa 618-49). Under Songtsen Gampo, Tibetan expansion continued unabated. Armies ranged as far afield as northern India and emerged as a threat to the Tang Dynasty in China. Both Nepal and China reacted to the Tibetan incursions by reluctantly agreeing to alliances through marriage. Thus, Buddhism first gained royal patronage and a foothold on the Tibetan plateau. The king even passed a law making it illegal not to be a Buddhist.

The known history of what today is called Tibet has been traced back
to the seventh century, the era of the first hero-king, Song-tsen
Gam-po. Before that, what is known about Tibet is in the realm of ancient myths, including the one that says Tibetans were generated by a monkey and a mountain ogress. Gam-po is significant in that he has been credited with the translation of several Buddhist scriptures into Tibetan. This led to Buddhism's making its presence felt in Tibet. One of Gam-po's queens

TIBET
The Roof of the World
Photograph courtesy of Galan Rowell Until 1950, Tibet was a Sovereign State of three provinces of U Tsang Amdo and Kham , inhabited by six million people with a distinct language, culture and history dating back thousands of years. In 1950 Tibet was invaded by the army of her neighbour, The People's Republic of China.
Look at what has happened to TIBET since:
1.2 million Tibetans died as a direct result of Chinese occupation of Tibet. Over Six Thousand Monasteries, Temples and Historical Structures looted and destroyed. Tibet's ecosystem has been severely damaged: vast tracts of forest have been denuded, wildlife species decimated. Tibet's substantial mineral resources have been plundered. One quarter of China's nuclear missiles are stationed in Tibet. China is using Tibet as a dumping ground for nuclear waste . Some three hundred thousand Chinese troops are based in Tibet. 7.5 million Chinese colonialists have been shifted into Tibet in a move to dominate the Tibetans. A secret Chinese document in 1992 revealed plans to swamp the Tibetan population with even more Chinese.

...
Historical background

Introduction: the "peaceful liberation"

In October 1950 the People's Liberation Army (PLA) crossed the Drichu (Ch: Yangzi) and advanced on Chamdo (Ch: Changdu), cutting off the Tibetan Army's retreat. Chamdo, under the command of Ngabo Ngawang Jigme, was taken and the Tibetan troops surrendered. A Tibetan delegation, headed by Ngabo, was taken to Beijing the following spring to "negotiate" an Agreement whereby the Tibetan delegation would recognise the right of the PLA to continue their march westwards to "liberate" Tibet and the People's Republic of China (PRC) would recognise the right of the Tibetans to carry on with their own affairs without undue interference by China. The "17-Point Agreement" was signed on 23 May 1951. Over the next few years, relations between the Tibetans and the Chinese continued to decline, with a major revolt breaking out in eastern Tibet in 1956. As Tibetans from these areas fled westwards towards Lhasa, news of Communist reforms and the harsh suppression of the rebellion spread to central Tibet. In March 1959, an uprising against Chinese rule broke out in Lhasa, involving thousands of Tibetans and leading to the flight of the 14th Dalai Lama into exile. China announced that the Agreement had been effectively "torn up", and in June of that year, speaking at a press conference in Mussoorie, India, the Dalai Lama declared that it was not valid because it had been signed under duress.

1. Introduction
We will separate the history of Tibet into several periods; (A) pre-history (pre-7th century), (B) dynasty, 7th century to 9th century, (C) feudal era, 10th century to 17th century, (D) reunification and part of Ching Dynasty, 17th century to 1911, (E) semi-independent, 1911-1951, (F) part of P.R. China, 1951 to present. Each era offers many fascinating stories. I shall try to recall as many as possible from memory.
A) Pre-history:
What is the origin of Tibetans? We shall examine two aspects of it; the Tibetan story, the known facts from Han history records. (1) Tibetan story: The Tibetan was the descendents of a male Monkey and a female Rock-demon. This was probably invented by outsiders when they witness the Tibetan custom of covering or painting their faces to protect themselves from harsh weather conditions. Later on, in the writing of the great 5th Dalai Lama, the story changed the Monkey to Avalokitesvara, a disciple of Buddha and known as GuanYin by Han people (Jiaga in Tibetan) as a goddess, the Venus of Han. Moreover, the Rock-demon became a goddess (Tara or Mother-savior, Jeo-Tuu Muu) in Buddhism). In fact, the great 5th Dalai Lama further claimed that the Tibetan King, Srong-tsan-gam-po (Songtsen Gampo) , was a reincarnation of Avalokitesvara, and his Han wife, princess Wen-Cheng , was the reincarnation of the goddess Tara or Mother-savior. This becomes an important story of Tibet. Even today, the palace of Dalai Lama in Lhasa is called `Potala Palace'. Note that `Potala' is the residence of Avalokitesvara which in Han Character is `Putou', and there is an island in the East China Sea with the name Putou San which is supposed to be the residence of GuanYin.

Why Tibet? HISTORY LEADING UP TO MARCH 10TH 1959
Immediately after the communist party took power in China in 1949 it began asserting its claim that Tibet was part of Chinese territory and its people were crying out for "liberation" from "imperialist forces" and from the "reactionary feudal regime in Lhasa". By October 1950 the People's Liberation Army had penetrated Tibet as far as Chamdo the capital of Kham province and headquarters of the Tibetan Army's Eastern Command. The region was routed and the Governor, Ngawang Jigme Ngabo, taken prisoner. Chinese forces were also stealthily infiltrating Tibet's north-eastern border Province, Amdo, but avoiding military clashes which would alert international interest. That year the 15-year-old Dalai Lama, his entourage and select government officials, evacuated the capital and set up a provisional administration near the Indian border at Yatung. In July 1951 they were persuaded by Chinese Officials to return to Lhasa. On September 9, 1951, a vanguard of 3,000 Chinese "liberation forces" marched into the capital. By 1954, 222,000 members of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) were stationed in Tibet and famine conditions became rampant as the country's delicate subsistence agricultural system was stretched beyond its capacity.

var defOn = 'education'; var defOn2 = defOn; var defOn = defOn2; on(defOn); History Early History The Invasion of Tibet Present Situation Until 1949, Tibet was an independent Buddhist nation in the Himalayas which had little contact with the rest of the world. It existed as a rich cultural storehouse of the Mahayana and Vajrayana teachings of Buddhism. Religion was a unifying theme among the Tibetans as was their own language, literature, art, and world view developed by living at high altitudes, under harsh conditions, in a balance with their environment. The Dalai Lama, an individual said to be an incarnation of the Buddha of Compassion, had been both the political and spiritual leader of the country. The current Dalai Lama (the 14th) was only 24 years old when this all came to an end in 1959. The Communist Chinese invasion in 1950 led to years of turmoil, that culminated in the complete overthrow of the Tibetan Government and the self-imposed exile of the Dalai Lama and 100,000 Tibetans in 1959. Since that time over a million Tibetans have been killed. With the Chinese policy of resettlement of Chinese to Tibet, Tibetans have become a minority in their own country. Chinese is the official language. Compared to pre-1959 levels, only 1/20 monks are still allowed to practice, under the government's watch. Up to 6,000 monasteries and shrines have been destroyed. Famines have appeared for the first time in recorded history, natural resources are devastated, and wildlife depleted to extinction. Tibetan culture is close to being eradicated.

    General Travel Information Facts for the traveller :
    To visit Tibet, the legendary, forbidden land on the roof of the world, has been the dream of many Westerners.
    Getting there : By air : Kathmandu - gonggar : a twice-weekly flight operates between Kathmandu and Lhasa from the beginning of April through October and sometimes till November depending upon the weather conditions. The 55 minute flight offers spectacular views of the Himalayas and the southern Tibetan plateau. By road : an approach that has great appeal for hardy and adventurous travellers is to enter or leave Tibet by road, following the footsteps of explorers who for more than a century tried (and usually failed) to reach Lhasa overland. Visa : the Chinese governments prohibits individual traveller to visit Tibet. The Chinese embassy will only issue visas to travellers on group tours i.e if there is a single tourist or a tourist group of less then 05 pax then they will have to join a group in order to get a visa. In addition to the visa, it is necessary to obtain an aliens' travel permit for travel in Tibet. Please carry 04 passport size photographs + smaller us dollars denominations for faster completions of visa formalities.

Jego obszar siêga oko³o 2,500 km od wschodu do zachodu bêd±c ¼ród³em wielu wielkich rzek jak Jangtse, Brahamaputra, Salween, Indus, Sutlej, Kali Gandaki, Trisuli, Manas, Subansuri.
    Tybetañski Rejon Autonomiczny (TRA) sk³ada siê z mniej ni¿ po³owy historycznego Tybetu i zosta³ utworzony przez Chiñczyków w 1965 r. z powodów administracyjnych. Warto zwróciæ uwagê na to, ¿e w³adza lub prasa chiñska u¿ywaj±c terminu Tybet rozumie przez to tylko Tybetañski Rejon Autonomiczny(TRA) natomiast Tybetañczycy u¿ywaj± tego terminu aby okre¶liæ te wszystkie prowincje Tybetu tzn. obszar tradycjonalnie znany jako Tybet przed chiñsk± okupacj± w 1959r. Stosunki tybetañsko-chiñskie istnia³y przez ponad dwa tysice lat. Ogólnie nie jest znanym fakt, ¿e Tybetañczycy mieli wielkie mocarstwo w siódmym wieku pod w³adz± króla tybetañskiego, Songtsen Gampo. W 763 r. Tybetañczycy zdobyli by³± stolicê chiñsk± na Chang'anie(Sian) ale w 10-tym wieku mocarstwo tybetañskie odparto zostawiaj±c znaczn± liczbê etnicznych Tybetañczyków poza granicami politycznego Tybetu.
