No worries. Southern China is better developed than Northern China. That could be another counter example. It could be argued however that guangdong and fujian developed before liaoning and jilin because of their proximity to developed Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The counterargument there is that the Chinese are probably descended from the Yellow River Ghost Population, i.e. a more northerly, cold winters group, who expanded south

Southern and Northern Chinese look really different to me though. Don’t know when that would’ve happen but must’ve happened some time ago as they seem to have diverged.
