This is the official answer I found in http://www.friends-of-tibet.org.nz/tibet.html: "In September 1949, Communist China, without any provocation, invaded Eastern Tibet and captured Chamdo, the headquarters of the Governor of Eastern Tibet." ---- However, I doubet on it. It is really "funny" that China which just survived from an aggressive war started by Japan and a civil war afterward not to chose rehabilitation, but to "invade" Another Country, and the reason is "to extend its sphere of influence"?
