I have been writing a rather detailed timeline for a few months, now I have arrived at a point where I have an quickly developing nationalist China competing with a democratic Japan (even if less democrating than OTL) that still has an independent foreign policy and retains Korea and Taiwan. How do you guys think the situation would develop? Does an industrialized China mean that Japan is going to get thrown out of mainland Asia? In my TL Korea still retains its culture and customs, even if with some Japanese influences, while Taiwan is completely integrated into Japan proper
