Your Political Ideology

In other words, it's impossible.

Your Political Ideology

I consider myself an anarchist. Not a "let's watch the world burn" stereotype, but a "let's work together and live in happiness and peace" kind of way, you feel?

You can believe this if you want, of course. But that's a very unrealistic way to look at things.

Just sayin'.

The Gods are Crazy

It is open.

I'm poor.

I told Aaron I couldn't make any promises, but if I get a chance to gib sum monies, I will.

The Catalina is probably one of my favorite planes from the olden days. Looks really cool.

I'd imagine we'd be beyond biplanes (but that's not to say we wouldn't still use them, I personally would like to mention them here and there). So I guess WWII-era planes, with Spain and China having some prototype jets like the ones near the end of WWII.

As Aaron said:

North Korea is a member of the Third International, under which they get protection from China - and really anyone else in it - as well as a more international stage for dialog in and representation to front, debate, and decide the larger policy of the Comintern. Within this is also economic partnership and access to the Chinese Space and Science ministry (which I should work on bringing up in the near-future).I imagine they'd be annoyed that they didn't get all of Chosun from Japan in '71/'72. But they're not really a power capable of arguing the point real well or who can take on the entire Japanese Empire (which is open).South Korea is in effect an overseas territory of the greater Japanese Empire and not a wholly independent nation in the same way North Korea is. So if you wanted to play as Second-Best Korea you'd probably need to do some sort of independence movement.

It's a Chinese-lead alliance of countries comparable to NATO. But it deals with more than just military stuff. North Korea isn't more tied to it than any other member, it's just a member of it.

I was under the impression from the lore summaries that North Korea was already independent, albeit in pacts and economic treaties with the Chinese. Granted, there really isn't much about the Koreas in the lore summaries, so I'm kind of working with what I'm being presented here.

I think this is true. They're not a part of China, just heavily influenced by them. Either way, I don't think a rebellion to get out of the Chinese sphere of influence would go very well. Not to mention that, given how much support they get from the Comintern, I doubt they'd want to get out of it and go back to being on their own in a region almost completely dominated by China and the Comintern.

A rebellion in South Korea might make a bit more sense, but you'd still be in a bad spot. Because in the end, even if you somehow succeed, you'll be sitting between China and the Comintern, and the Japanese Empire.

Aaron doesn't know what's happening anywhere outside of Asia, anyway.
