I find it funny when people see China as a single country imagine if someone referred to Europe with all its cultures as a single culture who all ate the same thing. Now picture China with probably 5,000 years of culture must be immensely more diverse.

Exactly. I am kind of annoyed when people assume I speak Cantonese simply because I am Chinese. Cantonese speakers only constitute 5% of total Chinese population. Nobody assume if you are European, then you speak Italian.
