Nice - Tibet is a big wasteland but acts as a buffer to China. Also the Chinese don't build Tibetans. All of Tibet is now under Han control. All businesses and merchants are Han Chinese. Tibetans live like they have always lived, a peasant life. Nepal and China have big Himal range in between so I don't think they would ever want Nepal. They just want Nepal as a pro-Chinese country like Burma. It is India that wants Nepal, because of geographic continuity. But as long as there is King and Monarchy in Nepal, it will be independent. The minute Nepal becomes a Raja-free democratic-republican country, it will lose its foundation and will be part of India.
