Why did China take over Tibet?

Well, China is not the first to conquer Tibet, although the Chinese did occupy Tibet briefly in the 600s. The first people to completely conquer Tibet is the Mongols in the 1200s. But the Mongols in China ended up becoming sinicized (became Chinese) as do almost every other nomadic tribes that conquered China. So they established a Chinese dynasty called the Yuan and Tibet is incorporated to the Mongol Chinese Yuan empire. The Yuan dynasty only lasted 80 years and then a peasant rebellion in China kicked the Mongols back to the Gobi Desert. A new Chinese dynasty(Ming) is established and continued to rule Tibet for the next 300 hundred years. When the Ming dynasty ended in 1644, the Manchus(a former vassal of the Ming emperors) unified China and they also ruled Tibet. So all in all, Tibet was part of the Chinese empire for 800 years. In 1911, the last Chinese dynasty was toppled and a republic was formed. However, a year later civil war begin in the republic as each province of china seceded from the union and ruled in de-facto independence, the ruler of these independence regions was called the Warlords and they fought each other for control of China. During this time, Tibet also had de-facto independence like every other province of China. China went from the warlord era to World War II( against the Japs) and then to the fighting between Communists and the Nationalists( from 1945-1949). The Communists won and unified China( including Tibet) for the first time in 40 years. So depends on what time period you are talking about. Why did the Communists conquer Tibet( well as part of their unification process). Why the Yuan dynasty, MIng dynasty, or the Qing dynasty conquer Tibet( to expand the territory of the Empire)
