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.
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.
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.
