Republic of China

Official Name: Republic of China

Ruling Party: Zhōngguó Guómíndǎng - Shànghǎi Bāng^note Nationalist Party of China - Shanghai Clique

Ideology: Dang Guo^note Despotism

After beating back the Japanese during the Great Asian War, China established itself as a respected regional power. While it has seen unprecedented growth since then, the country is yet to fully recover from the scars of Japanese imperialism and a brutal war that left millions dead.

• Commie Nazis: Even after their right-wing shift, the KMT retained the Leninist Vanguardism it acquired from its cooperation with the Soviet Union in the early 1920s and adapted it into their political organization via Dang Guo. This is made all the more ironic by the KMT's vehement anti-communism.
• Necessarily Evil: The KMT ditched their original plans to democratize after the Great Asian War, believing China is not yet prepared for the logistics of implementing democracy in a nation of billions.
• People's Republic of Tyranny: China portrays itself as a liberal democracy, but it is in fact a one-party state under the "tutelage" of the Kuomintang.

Tropes pertaining to the rework

^{Asian Development Organization} 

Official Name: Republic of China

---

• Corrupt Bureaucrat: Applicable to the entirety of the Chinese civil service. Bureaucrats are often knee-deep in "Black Gold" cases, with some just ignoring their administrative tasks to partake in corrupt schemes involving local politicians, businesses, criminal organizations, and the military.
• Democracy Is Bad: China is the largest democracy on earth, yet it is ripe with corruption, mismanagement and crime, significantly hampering China's development and ability to project its power outside of regional affairs.
• Realpolitik: China negotiates with practically any government that is willing to side with them against the Soviets, and has little interest in the ideological back-and-forth of the Cold War.
• Red Scare: The rise of the Soviet Union and the failure of the two nations to reconcile following the Hanoi Talks led to a wave of anti-communist sentiment spreading across China, leading the KMT to ban the Communist Party of China. Even after democratization, China maintained its anti-communist laws.

Prime Minister

Wen Jiabao

Role: Prime Minister

Party: Zhōngguó Guómíndǎng^note Nationalist Party of China

---

• Corrupt Politician: Even Wen Jiabao, who ran on an anti-corruption platform, is corrupt. His relatives were significantly enriched since he came to power.
• Internal Reformist: Since taking office, Jiabao implemented various political reforms to expand China's nascent democratic system, many of which succeeded.
• Irony: Jiabao, who is a politician of the Chinese Communist Party in OTL, is an anti-communist in this timeline.
• Wide-Eyed Idealist: Jiabao's greatest dream is to see China become a strong, powerful democracy, and has worked to reform the Chinese political system and give his successors the chance to achieve his dream.
