Republic of China (2023)
 * Wars: China begins its first global war as a part of GEMA, and continues to expand on its own in the Pacific.
 * Chinese Invasion of Japan (March 17, 2023 - Present): On March 17, Chinese naval vessels seize control over the disputed island chain in the South China Sea and Sea of Japan. Chinese fighters then attack Japanese air bases on the main islands, neutering 20% of Japan's air force. Chinese troops begin landing in Japan, seizing the southern fifth of the nation. Chinese troops launch attacks northwards in a blitz fashion, after bringing over hundreds of tanks from the mainland. Hiroshima is seized on April 24. Kochi is seized on May 2, as the advance continues. While Japan is heavily militarized, new Chinese equipment gives China the edge in this war. Kobe is reached by June 17. By early August, Chinese forces have reached the outskirts of Kyoto. Heavy street fighting endures as Japanese and Chinese troops duke it out in the city. China, however, with more men, forces Japan to retreat from the city in late September, after a month of fighting. With a good chunk of the Japanese army decimated in the battle, there is little to stop Chinese forces from pushing north. They continue to push north towards Yokohama and Tokyo, and they continue to push north until mid December. By now, the mountains have frozen over, which allows China to push northwards along the coasts and a few mountain passes, which will limit their number advantage. The air is also too cold for China's new planes, and the military leaders do not want to risk it, using planes only for supplies. The ocean in this area has iced over as well, leaving no room for naval support. Thus, Chinese forces hunker down in Shizuoka, a mere 40 miles from Tokyo.
