What is your basis for saying this? Does this have anything to do with the Tower of Babel? I've read that the Chinese did well after the TOB because they drew pictures to communicate.

The territory of China was invaded and conquered by many different nationalities in the past over 5,000 or 7,000 years.

The "Chinese character" was designed by the Shang Nationality (Shang dynasty 1600 BC - 1066 BC) whose people was a branch of Semitic family.

In Modern, the Northern Chinese people are relate to Altaic family. But the Southern Chinese people were related to Sino-Tibetan family.

Also interesting fact: the only Aryans of Europe happen to be Gypsies. Oh irony!

No, the Gypsies are of Dravidian origin (Southern India). The Aryans were in Northern India.

Linguistically though, they speak an Indo-Aryan language. But it's true that language doesn't equal ethnic origin.

According to some googles, they are believed to come from Rajasthan, which is North-Western India.

They are genetically related to people who live in Southern India, and yes, they may have learned the language of the Aryans, like the Bolivians learned Spanish, but language is not always related to ethnic origin.

Genesis 11.

And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. (11:1)
And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. (11:2)
