Zhao edit

The linked word Zhao goes to a disambig page, and it is not clear from context what the word refers to. // Konvalj 01:37, 14 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Vietnam edit

The Vietnamese should probably be mentioned, shouldn't they? Badagnani (talk) 23:18, 7 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Meng Huo edit

The line about Meng Huo being their leader during the Three Kingdom's period should be removed. Meng Huo is a fictional character used to personify the Nanman and was not actually a leader. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.73.167.196 (talk) 20:55, 7 March 2011 (UTC)Reply


Three Kingdoms History, and Fiction edit

The Nanman King, Meng Huo's existence is highly debatable, there is no mention of him existing in the Hou Han Shu, ZZTJ or Sanguozhi. He's only found in Luo Guanzhong's novel: Romance of The Three Kingdoms. And, historically, very little is documented about Zhuge Liang's Southern Campaign, though it is mentioned, no details were specified other than some participant generals, however; none of the 'barbarians' were mentioned by name, and the "seven captures and seven releases" is just a work of fiction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.96.119.74 (talk) 20:04, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
