John did not discover China; rather, China has a rich history that spans thousands of years, long before any individual could be credited with its discovery. The first known European to reach China was Marco Polo in the 13th century, but various other cultures had established trade and contact with China long before that. The term "discover" often implies a Eurocentric perspective that overlooks the rich tapestry of indigenous histories.
