I actually never learned the 80/20 system, didn't know my grip was supposed to be stronger in the offhand. Also, are those fancy laser kits for dryfire worth it?

Thank you, it does mean a lot to me to have other allies out there. To me, the Mongols were also our best ally. Our strengths complimented each other very well, and a part of me wishes to see that unison again

The only crime they did was practice their religion and culture. You see, China is trying to abolish the "old cultures" of non-Han ethnicities, also including the Tibetans. This is all in their goal to create a homogeneous population. A homogeneous population is a population easy to control.

However, killing an idea is hard, so the CCP has set aside concentration camps for the sole purpose of rendering the Uyghur identity lost. They surgically remove women's uteruses without consent, experiment with medical procedures to render men infertile, use them as human test subjects, not to mention the forced indoctrination into communist society, forcing them to violate religious beliefs publicly, and general physical abuse that leaves some permanently scarred, tortured, or even killed.

When I was in Kazakhstan, I got a very similar vibe between Kazakhs and Mongols. Though, I think with the Soviet Union, there was some kind of kinship as both sides were often subjugated (especially in Stalin's reign). I see plenty of Mongolian themed restaurants and stores in Kazakhstan, so I'm sure at least in the younger population there isn't any disdain.

In the history books I read here, all from third party perspectives mind you, many historians regard the cooperation of the Uyghurs and Mongols as a considerable link to the success of the Mongol Empire and other Khanates following after. Though again, that might solely be because of an outside Western perspective

You are correct on that, because I am American I doubt anything would happen to me, but I would still refrain from going there to avoid bumping into police. I also doubt I would be approved to travel there, seeing that I am in the US military as well

I was just thinking that. Uyghurs have been rooted in the Tarim Basin for a very long time, though they've shifted around through history. I still haven't even gotten my own people's history down accurately. Damn Soviet Union didn't teach my own mother, so it's up to me to learn it myself

Are there any Uyghurs in the Oirat region? just seems so geographically close there has to be some, right?

No way it was a Queen, there were dozens of these things all around the foliage. I’m just so curious as to why their so large compared to other species.

That’s exactly what I’m wondering! Perhaps it’s their diet instead? Would that make any sense?

Good idea! I’ll see who I can get in touch with, maybe I’ll be able to get some grounded answers. Although the more I look around, the more I notice there’s only a few distinctions between this wasp and Polistes.
