If China is erasing Tibetan culture, why China allowed barbaric Tibetan traditions as sky burial still, this would never be allowed in the west. China is very understand and actually let Tibetan people still practicing something so barbaric as this. Also, if China is genocide Muslims, why China have more than 40000 mosques for its 1.7% Muslims still. People in Xinjiang still have its traditions and language's, the same with Tibet. the one child politics never apply to other minorities besides Han Chinese, Remember that, also just visit China and see with yourself instead of western. propaganda. Remember China invite every leaders from the world to visit Tibet and Xinjiang in 2023, every Muslim's countries visit it and none of them accusing China of genocide. U.S and its lapdogs didnt visit. We all know what the west think of Muslims, Gaza is perfect example. western hypocrisy doesn't work anymore, rest of the world is waking up

It is like calling Guangzhou "Canton". Even though Canton is no longer used, "Cantonese" is still common usage because there is no other word for it in Western languages.
Thanks for making this video. Just wanna add something, actually back in the days, China also called Bod 吐蕃, "Tubo", which sounds like Tibet. But yes Tubo is long gone
Yes, Tubo (and similar sounding renditions) was the name used since the days of the Sui ad Tang dynasties. I was also wondering that the name "Tibet" actually was Chinese in origin. The Tibetan name was and is Bod. The Chinese transliterate it to Tubo (land of Bod). Middle eastern languages, Persian, Arabic registered it as Tubat or Thibat, which in turn made its way into Latin and middle English. Hahaha. Anyway, the name "Xizang" has been in use since the early Qing Dynasty; so really it is not a new name at all. What the Chinese is doing is reasserting their own names for their own territories. The same way that Turkey now wishes to be called by its proper local pronunciation "Turkiye" - they don't wish to be referred to as a "turkey" anymore.
@@luceafarul579 If they want to, they have the right. The Chinese refers to their own country as Zhong Guo, which name was first found on a bronze vessel from the Zhou Dynasty. They do not use "China" in any internal communications. Till the 2nd half of the 20th century, people in S.E.Asia referred to China as "Tiong Kok", which is a few dialect's pronunciation of Zhong Guo. But heck, Zhongguo won't come off Trump's tongue nicely. "Zhongguo, Zhongguo, Zhongguo"
@@csking6377 “Zhong guo” means “the central country” or “the middle country” there is no reason to make such a demand on westerner’s tongue for a term that simply means the central country. The name should be “Central Hua” which makes the most sense and it is the official name. Chinese people call Chinese ethnics “Hua Yi”, Chinese descendants “Hua Qiao”, Chinese nationalities “Zhong Hua Minzu”. So the people should be called Hua, which everybody in the world can pronounce, the language should be called the Hua language, and the country Central Hua.
@@luceafarul579 People and nation are different. Zhong Hua just means people of Zhong country. Hua Yi mean people of Han ethnicity who is not a Chinese national - ie all Han people spread out all over the world through migration - the Chinese diaspora. Hua Qiao means Chinese nationals (all ethnic groups) who are living abroad with PR status but who have not given up the Chinese nationality. Since you like this so much, I'll throw in another term - Hua Xia. This means people who are descended from the common ancestry of people of the Central Plains (Zhong Yuan) where they believe their civilization first flourished and which gave rise to the first dynasty, the Xia Dynasty. Hua Xia is a much broader term and includes ethnicities other than Han. The name Zhongguo came from this place ZhongYuan , Central Plains in English. ZhongYuan was also variously referred to as ZhongTu (Middle or Central Earth), ZhongZhou (Middle or Central region). All dynasties had their power seat in this region until the Mongols came. Yes, you are right. No need to make such a demand on the western tongue. So it's unlikely that China would insist that western people called it Zhongguo. But if it wants to, it has every right.
It would be good to see the contrast between Xizang and South Tibet (re-named Arunachal Pradesh) currently occupied by fascist India. According to some stats, it's the second most murderous state in India, from total neglect and zero investment.

She belongs in the feudal lord class and that’s why her family is able to immigrate to France! The feudal lord class in old Tibet were slave owners and they owned nearly 95% of the land with the rest being owned by Buddhist monks. Tibetan feudal slaves owned no land or any kind of property whatsoever, their lives are completely controlled by the feadal lords and their job is to make the feudal lords as rich as possible! They worked tirelessly until they dropped dead from exhaustion or disease (Usually by 31.5 years of age) to make their feudal masters as much money as possible in the rice fields and other labor intensive felids of work. When China was finally able to kick those westerners out of Tibet it banned the brutal feadal system from existence and brought democracy and human rights to the regular Tibetan people, something the US likes to hide and spin from this fact into something completely the opposite. Anyway, when China finally gained back control of Tibet and banned the feudal system all of the rich feudal lords ran away from Tibet into India, the US, UK, France, and other wealthy western countries where the money that they have made from the backs of their feudal slaves were able to provide them with a good living. The US joined forces with these rich Tibetan feudal lords to spread hate and disruptions against China in Tibet in order to separate Tibet from China as a way to weaken China just like it is trying to separate Hong Kong and Xinjiang from China. These feudal lords that are living in foreign countries love to help the US to separate Tibet from China so that they could return to Tibet as rulers of the land as they once were and reclaim their properties and privileges that they used to have, including reclaiming their rights to own the feudal slaves that they once had for thousands of years! Rights that China has prevented them from owning ever again! Free Tibet? Well, China has certainly done that!

You are right. The word Tibet refers to Weizang, Kangba, Ando, and xizang refers to the current area of the Xizang Autonomous Region. Now the Xizang Autonomous Region is the boundary demarcated by Xizang and the central government during the Qing Dynasty. Tibetan areas in Qinghai and Sichuan have always been under the jurisdiction of the central government of the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty emperor also designated the Dalai Lama to be responsible for the former Tibet area in Wei zang, and the Panchen Lama to be responsible for the latter Tibet area in Weizang.

@@SagarPrasad-t2cTibet is a foreign name, it wasn't even called Tibet back then, this so called Tibet have many names from different countries. Like how china called India in the past, Tianzhu, meaning heaven. Also, Bod used to be a war hungry empire, Bhutan today still practices a traditional dance which celebrates the success in fighting against the Tibetans. Tibet wanted to conquer Bhutan, but failed. It doesn't matter what your religious texts write about it, it's about the choice of the people. Do they want to continue their life as serfs? Or do they want freedom like they have right now? This is not about religion anymore, this is about human rights. If they don't want to be conquered, then why did the local Tibetans serfs start an uprising against the feudal lords, fighting alongside China?
South Tibet is under a law called AFSPA (Armed Forces Special Power Act). AFSPA is imposed on areas India deemed 'disturbed', such as Kashmir and South Tibet. Rape by Indians in South Tibet is a major source of tension, not to mention the thuggish Saffron Brigade harassing the people showing them who is the boss. One thing the Saffron Brigade likes to do is to parade through the neighborhood, banging gongs, and chatting in a passive-aggressive manner to intimidate the people. Years ago, yet another rape in South Tibet triggered a standoff between the local Tibetan police and the Indian army. The incident festered to a point where it caught the attention of the central government. Eventually, India threw in the defense minister to South Tibet to suppress the uprising. People in South Tibet are under the brutal occupation of India, but they dare to get angry but dare not to speak up, lest they run afoul of the authority and disappear, like what has been happening in Kashmir. Free South Tibet from India.
@@SagarPrasad-t2c I don't have a strong opinion on Xi, but I do have a strong opinion on Mao, China's biggest traitor. Under Mao, China lost territory left and right, including South Tibet, to India in 1951. If China doesn't have a civil war and the Republic of China (Taiwan) is still in charge, there won't be the so-called Arunachal Pradesh in India. When India invaded and annexed Tawang in February 1951, both the Tibetan Lhasa government and the Nationalist government of the Republic of China (by then had already retreated to Taiwan) protested India's invasion while Mao's China made no noise. It is because of Mao's indifference to China's territorial integrity that South Tibet is under occupation by India today.
@@SagarPrasad-t2c Not a problem - IF accompanied by actual CONSTRUCTIVE criticisms and EVIDENCE to back up the claims. Salacious comments on the other hand are regarded as nothing more than MALICIOUS with an intention to disrupt society and will be dealt with to maintain peace and harmony. Insanity is not tolerated.
These self exile Tibetans are disfranchised, realise they have now a lousier standard of living than their compatriots in China and prefer to make noise instead but truth is most of them have given up andvleft Dharamsala since India has done nothing for them. Lest we forget conveniently, they do not protest India holding Sikkim If India was so generous, they should give Sikkim to Tibetans😂
I’m noticing that none of these concerned westerners raise the concern of the name “China” which is never what the Chinese people call their country and purely came from the west. They don’t seem to have a problem with that. Hmmm I wonder why?
Persian (Iran) called China Chin. Chin established the Chin Empire, the first dynasty that unified the land. [Han] Chinese should have calked themselves Chin (or Qin) instead of Han . But the First Emperor of Chin, Qin Shi Huangdi was too ruthless and hated. And Chin the Empire lasted only 15 years and replaced by Han dynasty that lasted over 400 years . Chin the kingdom lasted many centuries before the Qin Empire. Chin people (Chinese) being located west of China had contacts with Persians then. So I don’t think Chinese minded being called Chin people (Chinese) or their country China as Chin was China’s most glorious moment in history. Now China as an semi-exonym is too stuck in the mud to be changed back to Zhong Guo - how Chinese call China.
@@Buckzoo2030 actually nope. The source of China first came from Cina from Sanskrit. The Persians got it from them. It was widely popularized that “Cina” came from the Qin dynasty however the Sanskrit term was in use before the period so it is not certain where it came from. Even if it came from Qin, it makes very little sense because the Qin dynasty only lasted about 15 years, AND it only had around 1/3 of the modern Chinese territories (hence why we shouldn’t call ourselves Chin instead of Han, because Han dynasty expanded to other territories). During the Qin dynasty the identity of Han Chinese wasn’t even established yet. So no, I think we DO mind. Because this popularization had been used by the west to suggest that China should only be the territory of the Qin dynasty, even the southern parts should not be part of China.

@@SagarPrasad-t2c I could care less about your books, and I don’t have feelings about changing the English name of Tibet one way or another. They can change it to Bod which is what Tibetans call their land themselves for all I care. But congrats you get one minute attention seeking browning points for your culture.
@@luceafarul579 again! English were not there when Tinet name existed.. BOD in tibetan means pure, this is sort of an adjective/ another way to call your land! Like today many countries call their land Motherland/Mathribhumi etc.. And Tibet is an Sanskrit word, this videomaker is just ignorant.
Nope im UK British Chinese, ive heard of Tibet in the West for sure... but me and my parents have always called / referred to it as Xizang or have always known it as youve explained it West Zang! And it sounds the same in Cantonese as it does in Mandarin! And it makes sense!
Historically, Lhasa hasn't controlled areas such as the Kham region, but it does control areas in South Tibet (what India now calls the so-called Arunachal Pradesh since 1987). In fact, Lhasa has monastic authority stationed in Tawang for tax collecting purposes, an unambiguous demonstration of exercising sovereignty all the way till February 1951 when Tawang was invaded and annexed by India in February 1951.
Nowadays, the long ago “Tibet” is called, Xizang and Aksai Chin, in China. And in India, Ladakh, Arunachal Pradesh, and a few other Indian turfs. I heard Dalai Lama is in Ladakh. While there, maybe he will declare Ladakh back to “Tibet”.
Different dialects and languages spoken inside China might refer to the same place with different names, but the official language is Chinese mandarin. Therefore the official name used by the international community should follow the name in mandarin. You can say whatever within your circle, but other Chinese people might not understand you. If you say Tibet or Bod to some random Chinese, they mostly possibly will not understand. But they could very likely guess out Xizang from its pronunciation.
Why do they care if it's called Xizang or Tibet? Tibet is an exonym anyway, locals call the place Bod, so does it really matter if it is Xizang or Tibet, They are currently a part of China under the CCP so their naming of the place that is Xizang would make sense to be the international standard for now if they don't want to use a western exonym which is kinda gaining traction with Turkey becoming Turkiye or India turning to Hindustan or Bharat, it would be great if we as a planet used endonyms as a sign of respect to others, so China becomes Zhong Gou or Middle Kingdom and Germany as Deutschland would be preferable.
In 1903, British forces, under Colonel Francis Younghusband, invaded Tibet in a brutal military campaign. Claiming to protect British interests against Russian influence, the expedition turned into a violent massacre, targeting Tibetan resistance. Thousands of Tibetan monks, soldiers, and civilians, equipped with little more than swords and outdated weapons, faced off against modern British artillery and rifles. The lopsided confrontation at Guru, near Gyantse, saw a horrific loss of Tibetan lives. ruclips.net/video/85PvPUNyOBw/видео.htmlsi=E1-RQ3RI9s2DMZwf
then why do you call China, China.... China is not a chinese word either... why do you call Germany, Germany is not a German word either. I have no issue saying Zhongguo and Deutschland, but the reality is English is a stupid language. you will have to destory most of English to correct all the term it has. xD
It's all due to the usual arrogant bally-hoo of the British who once "ruled the world" and whose descendants are still dominant in a third of the world in places like North America, Australia, and New Zealand - none of which are their original homeland.

Chinese version of xizang means Western Treasure House. Not a region in Western Tibet called Tsang in Western Tibet. Tibet itself was derived from Tubod which is from Toe Bhod which literally mean region in Himalaya where first Tibetan civilization began in a region around Mt Kailash or Gang Rinpoche thousands years ago practising mainly native religion called Bon which is similar to Zaorastrain of Persia. All the great civilizational rivers of Asian starts from Tibet. No wonder voth China and India were the richest in the world. Before industrail recolution most wealth xone from agriculture. The three of civilisational of of China come from Tibet. So does in India where the civilzational rivers of northern eastern India comese from Tibet. Tibet river even nourishes countries as far as Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Myanmar , Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal etc. My main objection in use of Chinese name is that China deceptively changes names to sound more like Chinese to claim it as theirs All Tibetan names if people, places etc were changed since 1950 occupation.

Say what you say it's TIBET !!!
It is like calling Guangzhou "Canton". Even though Canton is no longer used, "Cantonese" is still common usage because there is no other word for it in Western languages.
you can simply use the term "Guangzhou hua"
Canton is very much still used in French, idk about English
Thanks for making this video. Just wanna add something, actually back in the days, China also called Bod 吐蕃, "Tubo", which sounds like Tibet. But yes Tubo is long gone
Yes, Tubo (and similar sounding renditions) was the name used since the days of the Sui ad Tang dynasties. I was also wondering that the name "Tibet" actually was Chinese in origin. The Tibetan name was and is Bod. The Chinese transliterate it to Tubo (land of Bod). Middle eastern languages, Persian, Arabic registered it as Tubat or Thibat, which in turn made its way into Latin and middle English. Hahaha.
Anyway, the name "Xizang" has been in use since the early Qing Dynasty; so really it is not a new name at all. What the Chinese is doing is reasserting their own names for their own territories. The same way that Turkey now wishes to be called by its proper local pronunciation "Turkiye" - they don't wish to be referred to as a "turkey" anymore.
@@csking6377they should change the name China into “central Hua” too. No where in Chinese history was it ever named “China”
@@luceafarul579 If they want to, they have the right. The Chinese refers to their own country as Zhong Guo, which name was first found on a bronze vessel from the Zhou Dynasty. They do not use "China" in any internal communications. Till the 2nd half of the 20th century, people in S.E.Asia referred to China as "Tiong Kok", which is a few dialect's pronunciation of Zhong Guo.
But heck, Zhongguo won't come off Trump's tongue nicely. "Zhongguo, Zhongguo, Zhongguo"
@@csking6377 “Zhong guo” means “the central country” or “the middle country” there is no reason to make such a demand on westerner’s tongue for a term that simply means the central country. The name should be “Central Hua” which makes the most sense and it is the official name. Chinese people call Chinese ethnics “Hua Yi”, Chinese descendants “Hua Qiao”, Chinese nationalities “Zhong Hua Minzu”. So the people should be called Hua, which everybody in the world can pronounce, the language should be called the Hua language, and the country Central Hua.
@@luceafarul579 People and nation are different.
Zhong Hua just means people of Zhong country.
Hua Yi mean people of Han ethnicity who is not a Chinese national - ie all Han people spread out all over the world through migration - the Chinese diaspora.
Hua Qiao means Chinese nationals (all ethnic groups) who are living abroad with PR status but who have not given up the Chinese nationality.
Since you like this so much, I'll throw in another term - Hua Xia. This means people who are descended from the common ancestry of people of the Central Plains (Zhong Yuan) where they believe their civilization first flourished and which gave rise to the first dynasty, the Xia Dynasty. Hua Xia is a much broader term and includes ethnicities other than Han.
The name Zhongguo came from this place ZhongYuan , Central Plains in English. ZhongYuan was also variously referred to as ZhongTu (Middle or Central Earth), ZhongZhou (Middle or Central region). All dynasties had their power seat in this region until the Mongols came.
Yes, you are right. No need to make such a demand on the western tongue. So it's unlikely that China would insist that western people called it Zhongguo. But if it wants to, it has every right.
It would be good to see the contrast between Xizang and South Tibet (re-named Arunachal Pradesh) currently occupied by fascist India. According to some stats, it's the second most murderous state in India, from total neglect and zero investment.

@@dongiovanni8899 HAHAAHAHA true.
she’s cleary Tibetan it’s just that she lives in France that why she speaks french use your brain cells
She belongs in the feudal lord class and that’s why her family is able to immigrate to France! The feudal lord class in old Tibet were slave owners and they owned nearly 95% of the land with the rest being owned by Buddhist monks. Tibetan feudal slaves owned no land or any kind of property whatsoever, their lives are completely controlled by the feadal lords and their job is to make the feudal lords as rich as possible! They worked tirelessly until they dropped dead from exhaustion or disease (Usually by 31.5 years of age) to make their feudal masters as much money as possible in the rice fields and other labor intensive felids of work. When China was finally able to kick those westerners out of Tibet it banned the brutal feadal system from existence and brought democracy and human rights to the regular Tibetan people, something the US likes to hide and spin from this fact into something completely the opposite. Anyway, when China finally gained back control of Tibet and banned the feudal system all of the rich feudal lords ran away from Tibet into India, the US, UK, France, and other wealthy western countries where the money that they have made from the backs of their feudal slaves were able to provide them with a good living. The US joined forces with these rich Tibetan feudal lords to spread hate and disruptions against China in Tibet in order to separate Tibet from China as a way to weaken China just like it is trying to separate Hong Kong and Xinjiang from China. These feudal lords that are living in foreign countries love to help the US to separate Tibet from China so that they could return to Tibet as rulers of the land as they once were and reclaim their properties and privileges that they used to have, including reclaiming their rights to own the feudal slaves that they once had for thousands of years! Rights that China has prevented them from owning ever again! Free Tibet? Well, China has certainly done that!
@@0strawberii0Speak on your language to your fellow men and women, not propaganda towards foreigners! Foreigners just see quarrels, not real local understanding.

There are total of six million people of Zang (Tibetans) in China, three millions lives in the province of Xizang.
Another three millions live outside of the province (even in different time in Chinese Dynasties) and many lives everywhere in China currently.

Xizang I love Xizang
I would love to visit Xizang and see the Potola temple.
You are right. The word Tibet refers to Weizang, Kangba, Ando, and xizang refers to the current area of the Xizang Autonomous Region. Now the Xizang Autonomous Region is the boundary demarcated by Xizang and the central government during the Qing Dynasty. Tibetan areas in Qinghai and Sichuan have always been under the jurisdiction of the central government of the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty emperor also designated the Dalai Lama to be responsible for the former Tibet area in Wei zang, and the Panchen Lama to be responsible for the latter Tibet area in Weizang.
And now people who screaming "free Tibet!", "free Xinjiang!", "free Hong Kong!" on the street become homeless or just jobless? I really curious.🤔

@@SagarPrasad-t2cTibet is a foreign name, it wasn't even called Tibet back then, this so called Tibet have many names from different countries. Like how china called India in the past, Tianzhu, meaning heaven.
Also, Bod used to be a war hungry empire, Bhutan today still practices a traditional dance which celebrates the success in fighting against the Tibetans. Tibet wanted to conquer Bhutan, but failed.
It doesn't matter what your religious texts write about it, it's about the choice of the people. Do they want to continue their life as serfs? Or do they want freedom like they have right now? This is not about religion anymore, this is about human rights. If they don't want to be conquered, then why did the local Tibetans serfs start an uprising against the feudal lords, fighting alongside China?
South Tibet is under a law called AFSPA (Armed Forces Special Power Act). AFSPA is imposed on areas India deemed 'disturbed', such as Kashmir and South Tibet. Rape by Indians in South Tibet is a major source of tension, not to mention the thuggish Saffron Brigade harassing the people showing them who is the boss. One thing the Saffron Brigade likes to do is to parade through the neighborhood, banging gongs, and chatting in a passive-aggressive manner to intimidate the people. Years ago, yet another rape in South Tibet triggered a standoff between the local Tibetan police and the Indian army. The incident festered to a point where it caught the attention of the central government. Eventually, India threw in the defense minister to South Tibet to suppress the uprising. People in South Tibet are under the brutal occupation of India, but they dare to get angry but dare not to speak up, lest they run afoul of the authority and disappear, like what has been happening in Kashmir. Free South Tibet from India.
Hahahahahaha!
I dare you say something bad about Xijinping
Btw foreign media is allowed to go Arunachal Pradesh and see for themselves.
You don't know history coz Mao erased everything!
@@SagarPrasad-t2c I don't have a strong opinion on Xi, but I do have a strong opinion on Mao, China's biggest traitor. Under Mao, China lost territory left and right, including South Tibet, to India in 1951. If China doesn't have a civil war and the Republic of China (Taiwan) is still in charge, there won't be the so-called Arunachal Pradesh in India. When India invaded and annexed Tawang in February 1951, both the Tibetan Lhasa government and the Nationalist government of the Republic of China (by then had already retreated to Taiwan) protested India's invasion while Mao's China made no noise. It is because of Mao's indifference to China's territorial integrity that South Tibet is under occupation by India today.
@@SagarPrasad-t2c Not a problem - IF accompanied by actual CONSTRUCTIVE criticisms and EVIDENCE to back up the claims. Salacious comments on the other hand are regarded as nothing more than MALICIOUS with an intention to disrupt society and will be dealt with to maintain peace and harmony. Insanity is not tolerated.
Xizang is the correct name
These self exile Tibetans are disfranchised, realise they have now a lousier standard of living than their compatriots in China and prefer to make noise instead but truth is most of them have given up andvleft Dharamsala since India has done nothing for them.
Lest we forget conveniently, they do not protest India holding Sikkim
If India was so generous, they should give Sikkim to Tibetans😂
Thanks for pointing it out!
Thank you for this short explanation. I don't think many people believe in the "China is suppressing Tibet" meme nowadays
Thank you so much Luke for providing the historical context to XiZang
Thanks to this country, we are finally free in Tibet.
I’m noticing that none of these concerned westerners raise the concern of the name “China” which is never what the Chinese people call their country and purely came from the west. They don’t seem to have a problem with that. Hmmm I wonder why?
Persian (Iran) called China Chin. Chin established the Chin Empire, the first dynasty that unified the land. [Han] Chinese should have calked themselves Chin (or Qin) instead of Han . But the First Emperor of Chin, Qin Shi Huangdi was too ruthless and hated. And Chin the Empire lasted only 15 years and replaced by Han dynasty that lasted over 400 years . Chin the kingdom lasted many centuries before the Qin Empire. Chin people (Chinese) being located west of China had contacts with Persians then.
So I don’t think Chinese minded being called Chin people (Chinese) or their country China as Chin was China’s most glorious moment in history. Now China as an semi-exonym is too stuck in the mud to be changed back to Zhong Guo - how Chinese call China.
@@Buckzoo2030 actually nope. The source of China first came from Cina from Sanskrit. The Persians got it from them. It was widely popularized that “Cina” came from the Qin dynasty however the Sanskrit term was in use before the period so it is not certain where it came from.
Even if it came from Qin, it makes very little sense because the Qin dynasty only lasted about 15 years, AND it only had around 1/3 of the modern Chinese territories (hence why we shouldn’t call ourselves Chin instead of Han, because Han dynasty expanded to other territories). During the Qin dynasty the identity of Han Chinese wasn’t even established yet. So no, I think we DO mind. Because this popularization had been used by the west to suggest that China should only be the territory of the Qin dynasty, even the southern parts should not be part of China.

Nope im UK British Chinese, ive heard of Tibet in the West for sure... but me and my parents have always called / referred to it as Xizang or have always known it as youve explained it West Zang! And it sounds the same in Cantonese as it does in Mandarin! And it makes sense!
Historically, Lhasa hasn't controlled areas such as the Kham region, but it does control areas in South Tibet (what India now calls the so-called Arunachal Pradesh since 1987). In fact, Lhasa has monastic authority stationed in Tawang for tax collecting purposes, an unambiguous demonstration of exercising sovereignty all the way till February 1951 when Tawang was invaded and annexed by India in February 1951.
Nowadays, the long ago “Tibet” is called, Xizang and Aksai Chin, in China. And in India, Ladakh, Arunachal Pradesh, and a few other Indian turfs.
I heard Dalai Lama is in Ladakh. While there, maybe he will declare Ladakh back to “Tibet”.

What's 'Mount Everest' real name ?
Fake name

珠穆朗玛峰
I looked it up, its Mount Sagarmatha on the Nepal side and Mount Qomolangma on the Chinese side.
Let’s be fr do they actually be calling their land “Tibet”, they call their land “Bod”
Different dialects and languages spoken inside China might refer to the same place with different names, but the official language is Chinese mandarin. Therefore the official name used by the international community should follow the name in mandarin. You can say whatever within your circle, but other Chinese people might not understand you. If you say Tibet or Bod to some random Chinese, they mostly possibly will not understand. But they could very likely guess out Xizang from its pronunciation.
It is just plain word for “highland”, in another derivation “uncivilised”.
Why do they care if it's called Xizang or Tibet? Tibet is an exonym anyway, locals call the place Bod, so does it really matter if it is Xizang or Tibet, They are currently a part of China under the CCP so their naming of the place that is Xizang would make sense to be the international standard for now if they don't want to use a western exonym which is kinda gaining traction with Turkey becoming Turkiye or India turning to Hindustan or Bharat, it would be great if we as a planet used endonyms as a sign of respect to others, so China becomes Zhong Gou or Middle Kingdom and Germany as Deutschland would be preferable.
Zhong Guo, not Gou. Better stick to China !
In 1903, British forces, under Colonel Francis Younghusband, invaded Tibet in a brutal military campaign. Claiming to protect British interests against Russian influence, the expedition turned into a violent massacre, targeting Tibetan resistance. Thousands of Tibetan monks, soldiers, and civilians, equipped with little more than swords and outdated weapons, faced off against modern British artillery and rifles. The lopsided confrontation at Guru, near Gyantse, saw a horrific loss of Tibetan lives.

Plus China is not an ethnocentric state. It tries not to promote one ethnicity over another so none of its provinces have ethnic reference.
Tibet should came from the word Tubo（吐蕃） the old Tibet Empire's name, used both by themselves and Han Chinese.

Chinese version of xizang means Western Treasure House. Not a region in Western Tibet called Tsang in Western Tibet. Tibet itself was derived from Tubod which is from Toe Bhod which literally mean region in Himalaya where first Tibetan civilization began in a region around Mt Kailash or Gang Rinpoche thousands years ago practising mainly native religion called Bon which is similar to Zaorastrain of Persia.
All the great civilizational rivers of Asian starts from Tibet. No wonder voth China and India were the richest in the world. Before industrail recolution most wealth xone from agriculture. The three of civilisational of of China come from Tibet. So does in India where the civilzational rivers of northern eastern India comese from Tibet. Tibet river even nourishes countries as far as Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Myanmar , Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal etc.
My main objection in use of Chinese name is that China deceptively changes names to sound more like Chinese to claim it as theirs
All Tibetan names if people, places etc were changed since 1950 occupation. Eg Ngari (region around mount Kailash and historically important) as Ali,
Amdo as Qinghai, Kyirong or Kyidrong as Gyirong.
