When the Republic of China was founded in 1912, the government had debated which dialect of Chinese to adopt as the official Language. In the end, it was decided to continue the use Mandarin. But they nearly decided to adopt Cantonese, common in Southern China, along with Macau and Hong Kong. As well, it was the most used dialect of Chinese expatriates around the world.
What if Cantonese was adopted instead? Perhaps is the Chinese civil war still played out, the fighting between the KMT and CPC may have also been over Linguistics alongside ideology.
