Not so. Have a look at http://www.isc.org/ops/f-root/ for the part
that refers to f.root-servers.net
There are at least 2 other Internet root server instances in
mainland China, and additional ones in the Hong Kong area.
Lack of access to root servers was definitely not at the source of
any unreachability.
I agree with Joao and many others.
One can look at many places, also look at a map that I try to keep
