!!Korean Uprising (Keijō Spring)

->'''Official Name:''' Chōsen Sōtokufu

->'''Ideology:''' Colonial Government[[note]]Despotism[[/note]]
As of 1996, the area formerly known as Korea has been ruled by the Japanese colonial government, Chōsen Sōtokufu, for more than half a century, a rule that can be described as pre-modern, which is unusual among developed countries, even as other countries are liberating their colonies just before the turn of the 21st century.

The majority of the people living in Chōsen-Hantō are Naichi-jin who migrated from the main island and Korean-Japanese who assimilated into Japan under the Imperial Civilization Policy. The people of Chōsen-Hantō were once oppressed by racial discrimination and oppression, and a resistance movement had continued until 15 years ago, but it was completely wiped out by the suppression of the Japanese Imperial Army, and the light of hope of those who had hoped for independence from Japan was almost extinguished.

Moreover, the younger generation has little interest or concern for the idea of Korean independence, recognizing themselves as subjects of the Japanese empire and severely abusing older people who wish for independence as "Futei-Senjin (不逞鮮人)".

Sōtokufu bureaucrats are rushing to develop the area so much that it can be assimilated into part of mainland Japan now more than ever.

Still, there are many independent activists in the villages deep in the mountains and in the Korean communities on the Japanese mainland, much less in Manchuria and China, who are longing to return home and be free.
They are waiting for the time when they will be able to rise up in the chaos of the recent socialist movements and the terrorist activities of Aum Shinrikyo.

->'''In-Game Biography'''[[labelnote: Click To Show]]Nguyễn Xuân Oánh was an exceptional pupil at Kyoto University and the National College of Japan from 1944 to 1955. According to Japanese documents, he was even persuaded to stay in Tokyo to teach economics as a university lecturer. Upon returning to Vietnam, he was appointed Governor of the Central Bank in 1965, following Nguyễn Khánh’s military coup d'etat and the establishment of the Republic. In 1990, Oánh got the promotion to Minister of Finance and was completely put in charge of the nation’s economy. Oánh is not happy with the Republic’s distressing entry into the 1990s. He indicates that South Vietnam needs to completely alter its economy, in a way that differs the rushed reforms under Nguyễn Cao Kỳ’s presidency. Oánh likes neither Bùi Diễm’s idea of an oligarchic economy nor the current outdated policies. According to him - individual freedom must be commonplace and absolute, regardless of the potential risks. Based on his extensive knowledge about economics, the Republic can implement privatization at a much faster rate than its northern rival - and ignoring this potential would be such a foolish act.Oánh is the spearhead of the liberal wing of the Nationalist Party of Greater Vietnam, and is reinforced by the strong support from the intelligentsia. Many are still wondering if Oánh can establish a concrete position - especially in a sea of despots and radicals.[[/note]]

Ký studied in the University of Hanoi and succeeded in getting a bachelor’s degree in engineering. After the Japanese takeover of Indochina, Ký became a member of the Nationalist Party of Vietnam and took part in the fight against the Việt Minh. Many people defined Ký as a ‘man who is at war with everybody’ due to his perplexing relationship with almost every leader of the Republic. Under Vũ Ngọc Anh’s administration, he was at odds with the corrupt nature of the government and disdained the display of weakness toward the communist insurgents. When Nguyễn Khánh abolished the monarchy in 1965, Ký was re-invited into the government to serve as Minister of Internal Affairs; however, this quickly ended as Ký and Khánh failed to find a common ground. In 1980, Nguyễn Văn Thiệu signed a decree which outlawed other political parties - and Ký was persecuted in the process, as Thiệu saw him as a threat. However, under the presidency of Dương Hiếu Nghĩa, Ký was reinstated and nominated as the new Minister of Foreign Affairs because of his previous effort to strengthen unity within the Sphere in the struggle against communism. Being highly admired by his passion, Ký utilizes this reputation to call for national unity, reforms in economy, politics, culture and education.

->'''In-Game Biography'''[[labelnote: Click To Show]]Having led the armies of the Việt Minh through the hardest battles of the Liberation War - Lê Đức Anh is considered one of the ‘top dogs’ of the military, a war hero and charismatic figure within the Communist Party of Vietnam. Being a staunch conservative, Anh narrowly avoided persecution by the reformist faction - thanks to his reputation amongst senior Party members and most of the military officers. Anh is considered even more uncompromising than Đỗ Mười, and repeatedly recommended maintaining a tight leash on both domestic and foreign affairs. As a man who has fought tirelessly in the brutal war - he wants the armed forces to gain the authority to become more involved in politics and governmental affairs. But unfortunately, his militarist clique has experienced a significant decline in influence and members - which has forced him to make a pragmatic deal with Đỗ Mười’s conservative wing. However, his belief remains unchanged. Lê Đức Anh has always considered the army to be the true cornerstone of the revolution - and no politicians can ever have a better backbone to carry out such an important task.[[/labelnote]]

->'''In-Game Biography'''[[labelnote: Click To Show]]Đỗ Mười became the President in 1991. He was renowned for being a devout follower of Marxist-Leninist doctrine and a staunch supporter of a return to communist orthodoxy. On a particular occasion, he struck a chord after saying: "Capitalists are like sewer rats; whenever one sees them popping up one must smash them to death!". Now to answer the rather tricky question: How did a hardliner like him become prominent in an increasingly reformist environment? As it turns out, he nominally allied with the reformist wing since 1992 and showed a supportive stance towards Kiệt’s reforms - hence he became trusted by Kiệt thanks to his architectural skills and dodged multiple political purges. But as Võ Văn Kiệt grows older day by day, Mười slowly expresses his true ideological intentions and consolidates his position as the de-facto leader of the conservative faction within the CPV.To him - ‘Đổi Mới’ is but an insidious conspiracy to defy and contravene the true principles of the revolutionary and bring corrupt capitalism to Vietnam. Mười has plans to transform Vietnam into the immortal bastion of communism in Southeast Asia, regardless of how long it takes him to prepare.
