As for Tibet, (also the case with Taiwan, Manchuria, and East Turkestan)
???
Tibet actually has a history of being a sovereign nation centuries ago, so for a civilization in the game you could base it off of that I guess. That's not the case for the other three. Like you could do the Manchus but they literally became China. It would just be weird.
To be fair to "East Turkistan" you could totally add a Uighur/Tarim Basin/Sogdian civilization centered around trade that would be awesome. Tibet would also make a great civ, had many wars with China for control over the Tarim basin, specifically during the Tang.
civ 5 had polynesia, so they could have a Taiwan city i guess. maybe the maori in civ 6 could be changed to be pan-pacific islander and they could also have a taiwan?
oh he meant 17th-19th century taiwan under dutch, ming and qing settlement? those civs already exist, they can settle an island
oh he meant taiwan under japanese occupation? that civ already exists, that's a warmonger penalty
oh he meant 20th century taiwan post civil-war under mainland GMD occupation? that's... idk
oh he meant 21st century taiwan under gmd/democrat leadership and flirting with independence? that's oddly specific. gonna need a Lao civ, a Sri Lanka civ, a Burkina Faso civ etc before that.
