Dumpling evolution

I recently came across Ravs of the World, a sparsely illustrated series of webpages that trace the history of dumplings in different cultures throughout history. Several tree-like diagrams depict the "primitive dumpling theories" of the Middle Ages up through the "Modern Unified Theory" of 1926, which states that "all dumplings can be unified in one's stomach."
Obviously this is for fun, and it's listed in the humor section of its parent page, The Kalebergs. Try as I might, I can't really figure out who these people are or what their deal is, but all in all, the site is good for a laugh. The dumpling trees are thorough in their coverage of the dumplings of many lands, and some of the other food-related material on the site is worth a look as well.
