Excuse me for the double post, but I would just like to inform people such as The Corporal and Bigdaddy that I'm not an expert on International history and I do not follow current events as closely as you may think I do. I primarily created this thread for people to understand more about Chinese culture and the differences from Western culture, not to enter into philosophical debates about human rights and such. I would be better suited to answering questions such as: "What are some examples of Chinese holidays?" and "How are the schools different in China?". Thank you.

I wasn't trying to be a d-bag, just confused on some things.

The above post reminds me - other than Chinese New Year, what are the other major Chinese holidays? New Year is the only one we hear about in the U.S....
