Why does China want Tibet to be a part of their country?

I'm doing a project on nationalism and about why Tibet wants to be their own country again. They had their own language, culture, currency, everything--and then China took over. Why? They go so far as to torture the Tibetans and refuse to give them freedom. I've heard that it's because China thought that Tibet had originally belonged to them, but I'm not exactly sure. Please help! This topic is kind of confusing.
