You Cannot Pilfer History!
A large expanse of the north-eastern periphery of the ancient China had been a major living space of the Kingdom of Koguryo (B.C.37--A.D.667), the predecessor of Koryo (Korea). Archives, royal tombs, frescoes and Stone Memorial testify to the validity of the history of Koguryo. Documents of the neighborly countries, China and Japan, have to a recent point, explicitly and implicitly voiced no contradictory viewpoints pertaining to the validity of the kingdom.
History of a nation is not like real estates changing hands from one person to the other. Even the real estates are recorded in a public registry, which is the documentation or histories of landlords' rise and fall. You do not realize every momentum of a specific behavior of an agent. Greed might be a motivation. But any sudden contradictory claim of a property ownership over the public registry is considered false.
History is not bunk. It is a small yet strong truth which a great historian or a big government of a big country cannot change nor modify. You can pilfer one's possessions, kidnap others' women, and make other nations offer tributes to your country for a little while. But you cannot pilfer another country's history.
