Hell, even the word 'China' refers to the 'Chin' dynasty - a bunch of semi-literate barbarians who overthrew the Ming Dynasty about the time America was being settled.

Actually, "Chin" is from Qin Dynasty 221BC

Also check CIA's website:

You can find this line:
  221 BC (unification under the Qin or Ch'in Dynasty);
