===China=== [[File:Roujiamo, La Taverne de Zhao, Paris 17 September 2016.jpg|thumb|right|{{transliteration|zh|[[Roujiamo]]}}, the "Chinese hamburger"]] In China, due to the branding of their sandwiches by [[McDonald's]] and [[KFC]] restaurants in China, the word "burger" ({{lang|zh|汉堡}}) refers to all sandwiches that consist of two pieces of bun and a meat patty in between. This has led to confusion when Chinese nationals try to order sandwiches with meat fillings other than beef in fast-food restaurants in North America.<ref name="Sohu-2017">{{Cite web|url=https://www.sohu.com/a/161318777_224814|title=汉堡和三明治有什么区别?强力科普这些外来词!|date=August 1, 2017|website=Sohu}}</ref> A popular Chinese [[street food]], known as {{transliteration|zh|[[roujiamo]]}} ({{lang|zh|肉夹馍}}), consists of meat (most commonly pork) sandwiched between two buns. {{transliteration|zh|Roujiamo}} has been called the "Chinese hamburger".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://thewoksoflife.com/chinese-hamburgers-rou-jia-mo/|title=Chinese Hamburger, Rou Jia Mo 肉夹馍|date=March 4, 2017|website=The Woks of Life|language=en-US|access-date=January 5, 2020}}</ref> Since the sandwich dates back to the [[Qin dynasty]] (221–206 BC) and fits the aforementioned Chinese word for burger, Chinese media have claimed that the hamburger was invented in China.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.eater.com/2015/4/14/8414083/china-claims-it-invented-hamburger-burger|title=China Brazenly Claims it Invented the Hamburger|last=Shah|first=Khushbu|date=April 14, 2015|website=Eater|language=en|access-date=January 5, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.huffpost.com/entry/what-are-chinese-hamburger_n_7020056|title=The World's First Hamburger Comes From Where?|date=April 8, 2015|website=HuffPost|access-date=January 5, 2020}}</ref><ref name="Sohu-2017" />
