Am I missing something or is Sophian origin not actually available to the empire?

dude half the people who live in china agree that china is terrible, take your objectively wrong political standing elsewhere schmidtkaffe
Taiwan is a country

If this mod work well, it may be best mods i ever see

As an American, I proudly sing the praise of one of our founding fathers, Nikki Avagnar!

Sending the wrong message my rear. Do not apologize for Taiwanese irrendentism and Taiwanese dominance of China. Celebrate it.

@schmidtkaffee

Lol

this mod sucks

cyprus, do i need to say another word?

@Petra lol, lmao even

Is this mod compatible with Alpha Memes?

@Mort Strudel
fine,i have seen this.I respect you but i don't agree your opinion, just agree disagree.

The icon is meant to represent the flag of the modern Republic of China, not any particular political party therein. I certainly don't know enough about internal Taiwanese politics to comment on any particular political party.

The comment about Taiwan retaking control of China was an absurd joke, but I'll grant that it was sending the wrong message.

My criteria for adding a nation to this mod was almost entirely based around whether I could find a good Style mod to integrate with it. The Combined Logistics Command mod fit the criteria so I decided to add some Taiwan representation. I have since removed this integration as comments from people with a better knowledge of the region suggested that the imagery wasn't really very fitting.

The Structure itself remains, as there's no harm in simply representing Taiwan here.

Of course, if you think Taiwan is not an independent country whose people should be allowed to govern themselves, then I suggest you take such posturing elsewhere.

dude,what the heck is the bloody "taiwanness orign"?You put KMT's symbol while this shameful party lost china mainland in 1949 and lost its domination of taiwan since 2016.
i am chinese and i live in china mainland,i once wrote a lot of words,but then a reviewed the comments and decided to give up telling you the chinese history and the wishes of most chinese people.Because i think it is a waste of time to convince a guy who believes taiwan rebels or KMT can retaken the control of chinese mainland.If you want to build a chinese nationalism ideology,a easier,more convincing and safer way is to use the Beiyang government's flag(which is also used by the interim government of ROC established by Mr sun,who is respected in china)

Time to make a Japanese origin imperialist expansionist colony made up only of anime races that thinks war crimes are merely part of the fun

soviets being nationalists is beyond based

- Added Japanese Origin
- Removed integration with Combined Logistics Command

@LNBalestra My Political Compass mod has an Anarchist precept, which is unlocked by the Liberty meme. At the moment, I'm not really inclined to tie specific ideologies to structures, as the concept behind a structure is to be more or less cosmetic, while memes and precepts determine your actual positions on things like government.

@LNBalestra bit of an oxymoron

Hey mort, I have an idea. What about anarchist structures?

I'll have to find a way to make this adapt to an existing save - The chance to relentlessly antagonize Soviet scum in combination with the Warcrimes Mod, is far too cathartic to pass up.

*sees american structure* *STAR SPANGLED BANNER INTENSIFIES* MURICA, **** YAH

@Mort Strudel, personally, I think the mod can be improved if you change 'Taiwanese origin' to something like 'Nationalist Chinese' origin. The Taiwanese spirit is no longer about taking back China or to reunify, but to be a free country independent from PRC.

However, the mod seems to be going for the old ROC focus, which would make more sense if it was about 'Nationalist Chinese', not 'Taiwanese'.

@conk creet Thank you for this insight! I'm going to be updating this mod soon. Do you think that there's a way to rework the Taiwan structure to be more reasonable, or would you say that the mod would be improved by simply removing it?

Hi, Taiwanese person here! As you already know, Taiwanese politics is a sensitive and a controversial topic, so I will keep everything as objective as possible, from the perspective of a native.

In the past, the ROC government learned towards the idea of one unified China, but that idea needs either the PRC or ROC to disappear, which was very hard to negotiate. But we're way past 1950s, and now the majority of people wants to keep our freedom of speech, democracy, etc.

But as a Taiwanese, I think I can speak on behalf of everyone that we wish to stay in the current neutral situation where nothing is concrete and has room for negotiation. Like everyone in the world, we are all scared of war.

The idea of 'Taiwanese Nationalism' in this mod isn't very accurate in modern terms. It's an idea mainly from the 1950s when KChiang Kai-Shek was still around (And trust me, nobody likes Chiang Kai-Shek. He's known as a dictator even in Taiwan.), but it's just a mod, so whatever.

@dopamine terrorist As a westerner I have only a dim understanding of the cultural situation in Taiwan, but from what limited searching I did (to make sure I wasn't including anything horribly offensive in a different cultural context) the position of the government is firmly in the Republic of China angle, but there's a growing Taiwanese nationalism movement throughout the country as new generations become more culturally distant from the mainland, and just want the PRC to fuck off and let them be their own country.

But I don't claim to really understand the cultural nuances of a region I've never even been to. If a ROC national wants to weigh in, they'd be a much better source than I ever could.

dont all of the nationalistic people in taiwan really emphasize the republic of china angle instead of the we're a new country angle?

原来你也玩原神

worstachestershire sauce

Been looking for a good ol murican start
Appreciate the mod Mort

awesome sauce

@Vukanshak Not yet, this is a planned feature down the road

Do the different origins have different name generators (soviet origin has pawns that generate with soviet names, etc)

@AOBA Nah, calling it Chinese Nationalism would be redundant. There's already insectoids in Rimworld. Freedom for Taiwan!

@AOBA Taiwanese nuts

@AOBA I had considered calling it 'Chinese origin' and adding jabs to imply that the ROC had retaken the mainland from the PRC in my lore.

@qux My discord is on my steam profile, go ahead and send me a message!
