So I was reading this AHC on Spain it mentioned that Napoleon the Third suggested Spain take Tonkin in the 1860s during its campaign in Indochina.
If so how would Spains control of Tonkin effect the region? It mentioned that Spain would gain acess to the Southern Chinese Markets and that Tonkin was quite wealthy.
So what would the butterflies and pod's be? I have little info on this and I plan to incorporate this in a planned TL I have so I am looking for your responses on this?
