Europe is quite notable for the marriages between princes, princesses, dukes and duchesses and kings and queens of different states around the continent, a practice that lasted for centuries right up to the 20th Century.
Has the same happened for East Asia? Could it happen if it did not, specifically during the emergent nationalisms of the 19th and 20th Century? I understand that places like China, Korea and Japan are quite homogeneous and there has been historic hostility between these peoples, so that might be a problem. How popular would the dynasty be after such a marriage?
