What about decapitate and exsanguinate?

I know that Chinese culture prohibits that. That's why I'm confused. At the very least, whatever dynasty is in control of China will have to deal with instability thought around this time, from reactionaries and those wanting swifter modernization to combat the major colonial powers?

There's the problem. There's not a whole lot of thigns that are that efficient, and are a lot cleaner than coal and oil. I don't really know of any minerals that could be used as substitutes. Wind and hydro, and to some extent, solar, would be good candidates-however, they probably won't power the IR. Burning things is just more efficient-and entertaining.

But would there be more elements incorporated into it? Like say have two gold bands on either side of the SPQR?
