[quote=@Vanguardian] Ah ok, Im fine with that, but could I still at least have Mongolia as a state, since they have been a state of China before, and at some points in history they where just a vassal. Edit: Also, I hope Japan likes colonialism, cause Africa shall be mine... I mean OURS! Edit 2: Just an extra idea here. What if after the war, Japan overthrew the Qing Emperor in China and Implemented there own Dynasty with the new Emperor being some High ranking official from Japan. It would secure decent relations between the two countries, it would show Japan as even more powerful, and I can pick a name for the dynasty that is easier to pronounce then Qing. [/quote] I don't see them putting a Japanese official on the throne, that probably would not work out and being highly unpopular amongst the Chinese Nobility. Although disposing them and replacing them with a Chinese Noble who would be supporting towards Japan. And as for colonialism...they are probably still recovering from the War with Japan. That be pretty destructive towards the former Qing Empire and the new Chinese Emperor would probably be fixing that mess. Although playing nice with Japan would open up access to Japan providing them with some technology so they could recover better. Colonies probably wouldn't be a thing for China, at least for a while.
