The breakup of Germany is only 80 years ago. The invasion of Tibet was less than 70.
This is what I'm saying about current people. They think they're special because it didn't happen in their lifetime. This shit has been happening for millenia, and it's not about to stop now just because a bunch of people pray hard enough.
The breakup of Germany was a result of WWII, and the invasion of Tibet was perpetrated by China, who is their direct neighbor.
Neither of those are similar enough to be compared.
You want examples of civil wars wiping out ethnic groups recently? There's even more examples of those.
