Yang Dynasty
 * Government: Celestial Monarchy
 * Emperor: Kang (174 AD-186 AD), Liu (186 AD-present)
 * Economy: The Yang economy relies on taxing subjects, which are the peasants of China. They are currently looking towards the west for possible trade openings, maybe a larger Silk Road. With Romans and the Chinese accepting deals in one of their own settlements, it is hoped that the Silk Road would be expanded on this by the end of the century.
 * Capital: Xi'an
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 60,000,000
 * Xi'an: 610,000
 * Luoyang: 300,000
 * Beiking: 290,000
 * Chengdu: 490,000
 * Other cities and settlements: 19,000,000
 * Rural areas: Whatever that's left. I'm not calculating the whole thing.
 * Ethnic Groups: 84% Chinese (regardless of ethnic groups like Han), 8% Daevite, 8% other
 * Religion: 80% Chinese religions (this also includes Confucianism), 7% Buddhist, 13% Other (Daevite Blood Gods [that's what I think its supposed to be, since I was the Daevite cultural group in the past] and Tocharian paganism)
 * Military: 700,000 soldiers and levies. Note that China has one of the largest populations at that time so it makes proper sense to have a large military that spans all over the empire itself. Naval ships may count up to hundreds of small ships and dozens of large ships.
 * Diplomacy: N/A
 * Events
 * The Aftermath of the Plague: The plague has decimated much of the Yang Dynasty as the failures of bureaucrats and the governor in Hainan to contain the plague which spread throughout the next few years (175 AD to 183 AD). The population went down by millions, marking the sharpest drop recorded in local history. Not only the depopulation of rural areas, cities are affected too.
 * Raiders from the North: Nomadic raiders from the north and local oppressed Daevites (wich were often raided by some warlords in Yang and back), which are accompanied by the Xiongnu too apparently are sacking northern villages. As a result, the Yang Dynasty withdraws their own occupation within former Tocharian holdings in modern Xinjiang (East Turkestan), only to be swarmed by nomadic raiders. Two factions are marking its biggest strength yet and are killing off or enslaving any Chinese men for hard labour.
 * Traitors and Pretenders: Remnants of the Au Lac people (which were influenced under the rule of the Yang Dynasty for a while now) have risen up in the south. These people want to secede and potentially rejoin their masters in the south. They are led by a Chinese governor and general, Chen Ning who defected from being loyal and leading another rebellion in the south. Some warlords and governors had broke off to form their own independent dynasties/kingdoms in hopes that they would be protected from raiders from the north and bring stability to the local region after the plague. This seems to have failed.
 * The Peasant Rebellion: Dong Zhuo has seized Luoyang in what he says is to "protect the emperor." The peasants of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, numbering millions are being suppressed and attacked by 300,000 troops led by notable generals that you may see from the early stages of OTL Three Kingdoms. Of course, they would eventually betray the Yang Dynasty and fracture the empire up once more.
 * I'm sorry, but this had to be done.
