Western Pseudohistory Theory

The term "Western Pseudohistory Theory" (simplified Chinese: 西方伪史论; traditional Chinese: 西方偽史論; pinyin: Xīfāng wěi shǐ lùn) is a catch-all term referring to a series of Russian-inspired Chinese fringe theories that question the authenticity and reliability of Western history, and which generally hold that the histories of ancient Greece, ancient Egypt, and ancient Rome contain a large number of fabrications, or even that all of them are fabricated. Many elements of this theory are borrowed from the Russian mathematician Anatoly Fomenko's new chronology theory, and the term has thus been traced back to 18th-century French priest and classical scholar Jean Hardouin.
