8. "Of The People, By the People, For the People"
The newly powerful Republic of China entered the 1950s with much to look forward to. Ties to the USA and Europe were strong and trade was already beginning to bring economic growth where it was desperately needed to recover from the war with...
7. "If The Idea Of Revolution Is To Win Out, It Must Be Through Political Enlightenment"
The new situation in China in the post war world shook up world politics. The communists had been the ruling government in China for a long time and many had expected that it would remain that way. The...
Have no fear, the KMT won't be as nasty as that. Its not going to be a complete opposite. Mainland China is going to become a major American ally and trade partner through the 1950s-1970s, of course they do have that long border with the Soviets for plenty of tension to arise.

3. “Only Powerful People Have Liberty”
The collapse of the United Front between the CCP and KMT gave a reprieve to the northern warlords who had been expecting a similar attack from the communist forces similar to the one that had destroyed Wu Peifu’s armies. Sun Chuanfang was a northern...
I've contributed a couple of short stories to another anthology publisher who suddenly delayed their releases (by almost a year) and has only recently posted on their website why it may be related.

I actually didn't pay attention to the burn scars and his Nagasaki story enough to connect the dots but when he implores Tagomi not to give up on meditation it made me think that he knows about 'jumping' between timelines. Just a feeling I had form the way the actor delivered the...
Just finsihed the final 3 episodes.
Absolutely loved it.
So many unanswered questions, which is good. More chance that they are planning another season
I just figured that with the comment from the mother that it meant Trudy from an ATL had suddenly arrived. maybe it will be picked up in the next season. After all if films can travel between TLs no reason people cant.
