I think China should unite Vietnam.

Your word choice is terrible. I believe your propaganda machine will shout out "Liberate VN friend from Capitalism influence" or some stupid stuffs like that, and millions of you will believe. Yeah just like how China "liberated" Uyghur in 1951.

 

[IR-TR]

First of all, Not really much of a point saying what land "SHOULD" belong to Russia, if you claim so, how about Russia never existed? How about What if Germany or France conquered Russia by winning Stalingrad and Moscow or What if Napoleon won the Battle of Waterloo.

You ask a what if question about the future, and the future is based on actual history now, hence what you think what Russia belong DOES NOT MATTER, what matter is that Russia control East of Ural NOW. And if you have to go and ask what if there are East Asian union, then you need to factor in Russia with the threat level as of current, otherwise if you want to go with the "Alternative History" lane, then your question is nothing more than a fictional story,

Second point is, you cannot "Control Collapse" a nuclear power, you can do it before in the 1950 by NOT intervening the Korea War and let the US and UN force conquer North Korea, and unify it. Then there will not be a reason for US to station troop in Korea and in some sense, even japan, but the problem is, you intervened, that's in hind sight is the dumbest thing you can do. As China now created a buffer that unstable and missed the chance to capture Taiwan.

Thirdly, Economy is not EVERYTHING and you are seriously underestimate Japan. Even if Chinese GDP are 6 times of Japanese own, Japan simply won't fold and enter into a Union with China, US bombed Japan to shit during WW2, that's Zero Productivities for those who care to think about, and they did not enter a Union with US instead they stated independent. And even in historic term, refused to denounce the emperor and accept certain demand to "bend over" to the US, who actually asked for an unconditional surrender. They have more national pride than any one else, including the US and China

You are, as with other Chinese member here, over-estimated the Economic Aspect, you expect if you invest in some country then that country will fall into line, but you know what happened in reality? in Real history? Those Country will simply say thank you then took your money and ran. Again, as I mentioned many time in this forum, it had happened to the US in the 50s (Cuba), 60s (Laos), 70s (Afghanistan), 80s (Iran) and 90s (Iraq), what, why and how would you think they will not happen to China??

Business is Business, Political affiliation is another Question. It is dangerous to think investment and trade can forge long lasting relation. What if someone offer a bigger pie to that country? Would you think they will not switch side?

Now, this is the Reality

I disagree. Those drunken vikings conquered SUCH a big piece of lang, that they can stick their noses in anybodies business. They're European, Asian, East Asian, West Asian, Caucasian, Middle Eastern etc etc. How the F do you sustain that with only 140 million unproductive people?? Nukes? Give me a break. They won't use nukes.

You're way to pessimistic. Same about NK, Japan and business in general. This isn't the 40's. People don't listen to emperors anymore. Jobs are jobs are jobs.

First of all, Russian aren't Viking, Vikings are Scandinavian, particularly Dane and Swede. Russian are Cossack

Second of all, If you feel like you want to go challenge Russia, which phasing your own word "drunken and unproductive" Russian, please do go ahead.

And by saying "People don't listen to emperors anymore", that alone show how little you know about Japanese Culture.

Hence I rest my case.

They say pictures are worth a thousand words. Well, in the Japanese context, as it regards to the Imperial House, a picture is worth ten thousand words....

The Prime Minister Abe Shinzo in deep bow before their Imperial Majesties

His Most Imperial Majesty the Emperor Akihito precedes before the Diet

His Imperial Majesty Presides over His Government....

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

not gonna happen
but hypothetically speaking amrikis will have a heart attack

 

[Audio]

I like the title.....Most Imperial Majesty.....kinda over the top


Anyhow, if this materializes, i vote Nihonjin for chief minister and me for minister in charge of combating debauchery! Which i would by channeling it to my chambers and strive to achieve Mao's goal of getting life energy through (literaly) coitus with virgins!

But i promise, tentacle ****/carton **** (hentai is called irc) afficionado's would be weeded out. If not by any other measure than a firing squad!

 

[Aepsilons]

amrikis will have a heart attack

lol, Amrikis? Is this a local colloquial term for American?

Well that is the most conservative term we refer to His Imperial Majesty The Emperor.

Unless should we refer to His full title....The Great son of Amaterasu Amikami, Imperial Descendent of The Sun Goddess, Son of Heaven, Ruler of the Sacred Japanese Nation, Father of the Nation,.....trust me it is long.

There is supposed to be some ancestral connection.

I should mention; the concept of Emperor is as old, if not older than the very Nation of Japan. It traces back to the first Emperor Jimmu, who ascended the throne over 2500 years ago.

That is the DIFFERENCE between China and Japan. Their Emperors and dynasties cycled ; at least every 200 to 300 years with one dynasty being replaced by another. In JAPAN, there was only One Imperial House --- a constant --- like the Rising Sun. And That is The Emperor.

Ya, that.....

Chinese too have this elaborate titles, i always found it all a bit funny, excessive.

The difference; China no longer has an Emperor. Ours --- He Sits on the Crysanthemum Throne , a dynasty unbroken for over 2500 years.

spot on

I think this is the second son of the current emperor.
He will not be the next emperor but he has a young son who has an excellent chance to be the next emperor.
