when they're in a secure position again Asia's gonna pretty naturally gravitate around them but who knows what that's gonna look like in the 21st century. Tribute's a little archaic lol
bit idea: japan being forced to produce an annual tribute of anime
Who knows, a lot of Asia hates China more than the average war hawk in the US does. It’s pretty obvious that even without the US there are lots of attempts to ‘contain’ China to prevent it from reaching that point. Taiwan, Japan, Vietnam and Indonesia all seem to have a relationship to keep China as an equal partner instead of a superior one. India has a very tense border with China because of water restrictions in Tibet as well as most of the southern neighbors who China ‘encourages’ by building dams. I also doubt the Russian/Chinese friendship will continue for too much longer.
Tribute still happens, it’s just called luxury now where you pay more for the same thing.
