considerable and long-term political and military commitment provided by Yamato

(Japan) to support Paekche and Koguryo between 660 and 668; I shall be proposing the

following postulate.

This assumption is called “Paekche’s principle”; together with its four main theoretical

proposals it is sufficient for the attainment of a simple but consistent theory. This theory

demonstrates that the current version of this ancient period of history, here called

“classical theory”, is a hologram.

Analogous to that technical process, the classical theory is the result of a clever

construction from historians of the Tang Dynasty combining two apparent sources.

1- The kingdom of Paekche, the main object, was consciously stripped from its features,

distorted and its reality erased from history.

2- The reflection of the original Paekche civilization (adorned with its own unique social,

political, cultural and spiritual qualities for the needs of this creation) was renamed Shilla.

Under this principle, there is a single kingdom: Paekche. The real Shilla kingdom had little

existence outside what it was before 527, a very conservative aristocracy yet lavish.

Although allies, Shilla was used by Tang China. On the opposite side of the political

chessboard, was a very confident and domineering Tang Dynasty. Shilla never had the

time to develop any socio-political and cultural contexts, be able to understand and

embed the inheritance of social, physical, technological and industrial sciences,

humanities and spirituality that are inseparable from the authentic Kemit Buddhism. As

soon as the fruits of the Paekche civilization were squandered, the agony seized Unified

Shilla. The bursting of the kingdom in numerous petty fiefdoms focused on clans’

interests guaranteed a rapid and definitive implosion.

The Tang Dynasty thus forcefully closed more than three centuries of an intense rivalry

between two civilizations of African origin on one hand, and of Chinese origin on the

other. This opposition brought into conflict Sui (581-618) and Tang (618-907) dynasties

with three competitors Koguryo, Paekche and Yamato (Japan) determined to follow a

different path in culture, even opposite in many ways, from the Chinese model. This

coalition arose from successive alliances gradually built by Koguryo, Paekche, Yamato,

and episodic cultural allies in “Chinese” territories (Northern Wei (386-534) and Eastern

Chin’s (317-420) kingdoms). By choice of its society, without borders with China, and

for its continental position, the kingdom of Paekche was long the strategic pivot of this

political and cultural coherent whole.
