Yan Xishan was a warlord of Shanxi and seems to one of few warlords who seemed to be good. He did alot to develop Shanxi and modernise to verying levels of success, supported by some modern and progessive social policies at the time. He was once on times magazine as next president of china so there was some belief he could have taken control of china, but he couldn't due to his army and lands being less populated and developed compared to the nationalists, if he did gain control of china would china be better off or no and how would ww2 go for china if he was in charge?
