I mean regardless of what happened in China, the Brits still profit, Qing or no Qing.

However two groups found the proposed law absolutely dreadful. The Hungarian Magnates and the Venetian Oligarchs found the proposed bill absolutely dreadful,

This bit is a bit awkward, it's basically saying the same thing twice.

Any predictions for the future? I hope some of you got the small hints I dropped in the chapter.

Why is Taiwan 9 percent white?

That would be a spoiler.......
A certain event in the future causes an immigration scheme. All the immigrants not being able to go to America need to be replaced by some method!

They can go to Mexico South Africa Canada Patagonia and the Anzacs. Seems weird for the Brits to send Euro's to Taiwan when they can get cheap labor from neighboring countries like Japan China and the Philippines

Who said they're there for cheap labor?

 

[Glory2Cabinda]

Who said they're there for cheap labor?

What else did they take Taiwan for the resources and it's position. And the labor needed to exploit them. Why else would the Coolie system have been so popular?

Like I said their are many settler colonies and Immigrant nations they can got too.

Again immigrations don't always happen for cheap labor. Skilled manpower such as merchants, businessmen, entrepreneurs, administrators, lawmakers, policy jurisdictions, economists, agricultural experts, marine builders, naval experts, technological firms also beget immigration. Before independence virtually all colonies had sizeable European minorities before most of them immigrated back during the independence era.

Fair point. But to my knowledge the ones in Asia were very small and never made a significant portion of the population. They were just a small group of people numbering in the thousands to my knowledge. Where talking South Africa levels here in Taiwan though. How can a small group of skilled workers become 9 percent of the population?

The answer for that would lie in the series of events that will take place in the future between China and the UK. Spoilers not allowed for now on that front! Let's just say an event prompts Han Chinese emigration on some level back to China in Taiwan.

The Afghans have been defeated! The Austrians have fallen into instability and Felix wants reform! The Mapuche embarrass the New English and the New English desperately hold onto land in Patagonia and a new era has started in China under the Tian Dynasty. Thoughts? Predictions?

- The Afghans have been defeated: And so Afghanistan as the Graveyard of Empires is no longer...that's it really...

- Habsburg Cell: Ultimatum: I'm kinda curious as to what Felix is threatening the various imperial magnates with, ngl.

- The Great Game of the Southern Cone: So the New English has been beaten back for now, but the game still continues, as Argentina and New England will still be eying the region. Feeling bad for the Mapuche, truth be told, because they lose no matter what happens.

This seems forced for plot reasons.

That...sound ominous, at late 19th/20th century Han Chinese have been on the island for more than two century, whatever issue forced them to leave must be really, really bad.

The British empire is no stranger to ethnic cleansing.

I suppose its a theological question depending on your point of view. If it were a divine revalation i suppose someone else could receive it,as that would be up to God. .
