China

== THE GREAT FLASH ==
Directly after the nuclear war China was left in a state of disarray. Millions had been vaporized and many that survived would die in hours to weeks. Nobody thought it would happen and the Chinese government didn't have a particular plan to keep people calm.
The results of the instability began in the outskirts of major cities spreading quickly across China. Major mutinies in the army began as the government couldn't find the money to pay its soldiers. Regions farthest away from government jurisdiction declared independence first.
Independence movements would strike against the Chinese government just hours after the nuclear bombing. President Xi Jinping has yet to make an announcement to China and its citizens. Rumors begin to circulate that he has died in the bombings.
=== BEGINNING OF THE END ===
Tibet and Xinjiang would be the first regions to declare their independence. Both regions would be invaded immediately by the People's Liberation Army. Just hours after declaration major portions including most cities of the nation's would be occupied. The newly declared governments would have little to their name except small militias. 
China would finally get information from the government 33 hours after the nukes dropping, Xi Jinping is not dead but in critical condition, he states. 
"China shall prevail from even the worst situations, we have stuck together through great leaps and imperialistic invasions, it is not now that we must fail to support every one of each other." - Xi Jinping
=== FREEDOM OF THE PEOPLE ===
Minutes after making this announcement Xi Jinping would pass away due to radiation poisoning with many believing his last words were "Free me from this inferno."
Tibet and Xinjiang would create an alliance over radio connection to help try to preserve their freedom. While Tibet has begun to hold its ground, Xinjiang continues to lose territories to the People's Liberation Army.
China has begun to see an economic crash as the next morning would come. Millions do not come into work and those that are still alive likely have nowhere to work. The government would attempt to call an emergency meeting but due to the nuclear bombing most government officials have disappeared or died.Revolts would begin in the interior of China as military forces listening to revolutionists saying they would save them, join against the inactive People's Republic of China. Major mutiny in the Sichuan valley would begin and through unstable infrastructure the news would begin to spread across China. Many forces in Tibet and Xinjiang would revolt against the People's Republic of China.
== FALL OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA ==
As death of the leader of the People's Republic of China spreads across the country, there is now little holding the many power-hungry leaders from taking control over separate regions and armies. Without someone to tell them no, this would become what many leaders would do, like a domino effect one would cause all to break away from the People's Republic of China. This would seemingly collapse the People's Republic of China, but communist leaders would agree to cooperate to preserve the ideology in China.
=== A GRAND REBELLION ===
The People's Liberation Army would begin to be pushed back quickly as the weakened cooperation between forces and many more deserting to local militias to fight for themselves would strain the central government. Further, allegiances by many of these forces would switch to the Chinese Trading Republic as they promise the conscripts more than the People's Liberation Army.
It was at this time that the Chinese Trading Republic would form the Federacies that would eventually make up the nation. The Republic would quickly grow from a small revolt to spreading across the country uniting people everywhere. With new momentum the revolt had it would consolidate large sectors of land overtaking the People's Republic of China.As the strength of the People's Liberation Army would crumble a new government, the Chinese Trading Republic would emerge. While unstable for the time it would hold its strength and as time continued to prove, it was extremely popular among the impoverished. China now had new leadership and more than ever the Chinese people were hoping for change in such dire times.
The December Revolts would occur rapidly and without warning though, the Chinese Trading Republic would have internal corruption left behind by the People's Republic of China. Multiple provinces in the south would attempt to break off from the Chinese Trading Republic and quickly seize large amounts of military power. The Chinese Trading Republic would be quick to respond to the revolts though slowing their expansion.
Due north due to the quick actions of the December Revolts the Communists would be able to seize control over the Beijing region and further instigate revolts in the north. Major issues would continue to show in the coming weeks as the Chinese Trading Republic would quell revolts from forming and expanding. 
== RISE OF THE CHINESE TRADING REPUBLIC ==
As the time of the Chinese Trading Republic would dawn continued revolts would occur, the siege of Wuhan being one of them. This was an attempt of communist revolutionaries to take control of the capital of the Chinese Trading Republic. While a failure these continued revolts would eventually be one of the many reasons for the downfall of the Chinese Trading Republic.
As movements would quell though the Chinese Trading Republic would begin to consolidate its power, military force would attack rebellions and secure more victories in important regions. While to the north larger hordes would begin to take control over large swaths of land including regions of Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang. Muslim supporters would begin to fight against the growing communist threat in Xinjiang forming coalitions against their forces.
The leader of the Chinese Trading Republic, Guanyu Zhi would state "A new dawn is upon China that we cannot take for granted as it is our choices that will decide the fate of every person in China." He later would become the last modest leader of the Chinese Trading Republic but became a leading cause of future corruption.
As the Chinese Trading Republic would continue to condense its power an invasion of Beijing would begin, the daring but resilient Kingdom by the Bay would stop the invasion though. The Kingdom by the Bay would continue to repel multiple invasions by the Chinese, many numbering the hundreds of thousands, this bravery would show their willingness to fight and never surrender,
=== DEFENSE OF A LIFETIME ===
The Chinese Trading Republic would begin to see small cracks due to these continued failed attempts to take Beijing, though support for the Chinese Trading Republic would still remain extremely high. Chinese would continue to support the expulsion of communists disciplining them heavily for who they are.
== A NEW ERA OF "FREEDOM"' ==
The cracks in China would begin to form as the leader Guanyu Zhi would die leading to a power struggle which nobody truly would give into. This along with a period of downturn before the death of Guanyu Zhi due to the fall of trading routes between Europe and China would see major economic struggle leading to revolts and governance problems.
The Chinese Trading Republic would begin a major military operation into the northwest moving to retake control over the Hexi Corridor to promote new growth in China. The congress of China would become very corrupt during this time of poverty using the military to suppress even peaceful revolts and take control over nations that the Chinese Trading Republic once had treaties with.
=== TRUST IN CHINA TO FALL ===
As the Chinese people would begin to see corruption in China, they would begin to lose their trust in the Chinese Trading Republic. Revolts would begin to seep in the cracks of the government, land would begin to revolt, and generals would become warlords. The Chinese Trading Republic would begin to see an end. As The Chinese Trading Republic would see multiple rebellions leadership would go into a panic.
Large amounts of corruption would begin to be exposed as trust in the party would collapse, larger organizations that would've once supported the corruption of the government would turn their backs and neighboring countries would begin to take advantage. Chaos would begin in major cities and production in rural and industrial regions would begin to cease.
At a large famine would begin and economic downturn would become common place, the northern drug crisis would begin as the Chinese Trading Republic could no longer secure its border and the Hexi Corridor would fall once more. 
Continuing throughout the next couple decades major downfall into the party of the Chinese Trading Republic would occur while elsewhere in the country, communists would begin to see their time to rise. Large nations would be toppled, and communist governments would form across multiple regions of China. Now it is only time before the new factions emerging in China compete for dominance.
