I thinking of starting an RP based off the idea that the Sino-Soviet split went deeper than IRL, and resulted in China basically entering the Cold War as a third super-power. China claims this title by first and foremost revealing their nuclear capability and then supporting communist movements in their local area, with the most attention going to Indochina and Indonesia. The Chinese also support rebel groups in Africa and South America, gaining the ire of the United States, who are beginning to escalate the war in Vietnam, and sending in "advisers" to many South American countries.

The RP would take place in 1969.
AH, PMT, some FT.


Your test scores indicate that you are an open-minded ultra-progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a generally optimistic attitude towards humanity in general.
Your attitudes towards economics appear neither committedly capitalist nor socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a liberal.
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a considerate idealistic egalitarian with many strong convictions.

Hahahaha lol no.

Pls. If you want this to happen, basically you need to for Mao not to push the Great Leap Forward somehow. From there, he'd need to continue to work the third stage of China's 2nd 5YP. This should have their economy striving, but the problem is that's not very maoist of Mao. He'd push for massive collectivization, but this doesn't give him that so it'd be hard to conceive him being in power and doing this. On the other hand, you need him in power to keep up this Maoist (pro-stalinist) ideology. It's this ideology that causes the sino-soviet split as the Chinese start to resent the Soviet revisionism that's going on with Khrushchev. So you'd need a very hard-line China, but the problem in doing this is that no one is as hard-line as Mao is and if you have them be hard line, they wouldn't modernize due to the GLF plan destroying the small scale capitalism in the communes which is what was helping them industrialize under the 5YP's in early china.

On the other hand, perhaps you could have a very revisionist USSR that seeks peace with the USA in the 50's like Esienhower and Khrushchev tried. The only problem with this is that a major aspect of Chinese promotion of communism was that it was partially to oppose the soviet hegemony that was scaring them. As well, if you had a China that tries to do this, it may go GPCR like it did IRL under Mao and effectively destroy all of its progress.

So I don't see this very likely.

Do it! I really wanna be either a khanate-esque nation in the plains or a mega-empire in the pampas-Brazil that's similar to hinduism.

When should the RP start? Once Eurasia and America are separated? 1000 CE? 1500 CE?

Ah, I see. I think it would be more interesting if that RP began close to the time of contact with Afroeurasia.

No, I mean IRL contact (actual civilizations/nation states and contact between Europe/East Asia and native tribes/nations).

I think maybe 1000 CE, enough time to advance before the Conquistadores come, and also to war against each other.

That'd have to have a fast IC, otherwise the RP wouldn't last long.

Yes... Okay... 1500 then...

The Spaniards have some islands where there aren't many huge animals.

Then they decide to come see us.
