The Japanese Split



After deciding not to give the go ahead to use an atomic bomb American president Harry S. Truman calls upon the best American generals for a co-opt American/Soviet assault on the Japanese mainland.

Soviet Leader Joseph Stalin, Surprised by this choice decides his best scientists will work on making there own bomb as they use the invasion of Japan as a distraction.

British leader Winston Churchil remains focused on European affairs and stays away from the war with Japan, and declared a white peace unless something happened to change his mind.

Meanwhile in the east, the British Raj region wishes independence from Great Britain, as does Indochina from France, Quickly Japan tries to use this as a weapona gainst the Allies, promiing several colonies and dominions freedom if they joined the war.

1946: Invasion and Civil War.

South Sakhlin island was the first and best target, American troops in Okinawa gave the go ahead for a full scale Soviet Invasion.

This invasion was bloody and fierce, the Soviets lost two hundred thousand while the Japanese only lost thirty as after two months of combat, they had fled.

The British Raj ruptured into several civil wars, one dominating Independence with Communism, another with Democracy and one who wished to remain as they were.

These groups were known as the Indian People's Republic, British Raj, and The Republic of India, each nation wanted dominance, Burma used this a month in to declare independence from the British, who let them go without a hitch.

As Britain suspected involvement of Japan with their affairs, the only nine month long armistace had come to an end, Britain launched an assault with it's heaviest hitting ships on the newly developed Japanese port, this act crippled Japanese sea combat which allowed America to enter through Nagasaki, starting an invasion that would last for the next half a decade.

1947: The fall of Nagasaki and China's struggle.

After hearing about America reaching the mainland, The Republic Of China begged for help in their civil war, offering up key islands and allied control of the nation, Britain ignored this still dealing with Japan and India, America sent 25,000 Troops, France sent 1800, Canada sent 10,000, and Belgium sent 1000, each with high level equipment.

The Soviet Union disliked this action and sent in a million men, this started what was known as the "Proxy Wars."

Tibet, fearing it's independence status with two majors clashing by there side formed an East Asian alliance with Mongolia, Nepal, Bhutan, and what remained of the warlords.

This faction, known as the East Asian Defensive Pact (EADP) Was to make sure each country within it wouldn't have to worry about being invaded as they'd all help out the other.

Burma and Thailand would also join this a few months in as their borders started to be lined by soldiers from several fronts.

The Communists in India managed to take out the Raj and were now fighting dwindiling Democratic forces by June.

China and Allied forces hold Qinhai, Xinjiang, Yunnan, and Sichuan from closing in forces, while the Soviets and Americans fought one front together, they also fought one apart.

The USSR threatened to declare a direct war on the Americans themselves if they did not leave the war in China by the end of the year, knowing the nukes would not be used on them.

America themselves left but not after building a massive wall of machine guns and calling upon whoever could join the war.

Turkey, Australia, New Zealand, The Philippenes, South Africa, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, and Greece joineed sending a combined total of fifty thousand men.

While this was certainly not as high as the Soviet-PRC count, this would hold the lines for now until Japan was dealt with.

Nagasaki traded hands several times,, once with the American invasion, then Japan took it back, then America stole it once more before Japan fought to take it back, until finally Britain and The USA recieved artillary backup in which they controlled the now ruined city.

Overall half a million innocent civillians had lost there lives so far since the invasion of South Sakhlin, this caused riots in the streets for the Americans to leave, the Japanese to surrender, or just to go back to the status qou.

Two hundred more died because of that in what's known as the Nagasaki massacre.

By the end of the year Americans had taken over the rest of the most Southern island with relative ease.

1948: Fall Of Hiroshima and the Chinese Push.

China and allied forces after defending for a prolonged amount of time start taking back land quickly, the People's Republic's army was retreating, but why?

Soon they'd know however, as several large bombs were dropped on allied forts and defences, each creating more destruction.

One of these bombs had accidentally hit and killed a Tibetean-Chinese woman named Li.

This caused the defensive pact to join the war and start fighting against the Communist army.

India had just lost Pakistan to an idependence referendum as the Communist Army takes Delhi in an eight month long seige, now the People's Republic had taken over and were ready to supply the Chinese with more men and guns on a seperate border.

So they conscript to the millions, the allies had made it to Guanxi in the south and was nearing Beijiing in the north with help of the Mongolians.

Seeing this as anyones game now, the Soviets quickly bombed Hong Kong and Macau to help prevent the allied forces from winning.

This action only made Portugal and Britain to join the war with other non already involved commenwealth nations.

India imediatly pulled after this, not wanting to risk there independence so soon after gaining it.

Tibet managed to steal Delhi off of them in a peace deal as well as Assam in order to make sure the allies left India alone, India moved their capital to Mumbai.

In China, Chiang Kai Shek had been stabbed and killed by a traitor.

Mao, using this as his oppertunity attempted to convince a unification, which about of a third of the cabnit agreed, but the Allies threatend war if they did, and so the ROC decided to become a democratic nation fully and face off against Mao's army, not wanting to make the allies who were already in much of their land to declare war.

Belgium started to get greedy however, demanding a port in the country so it could ship weapons and supplies in for their soldiers, Britain denied this so Belgium pulled out of the war with a small number of 213 men still alive.

Seventy-Six of those were still seriously wounded and unable to leave China with out medical attention, that the allies wouldn't give unless Belgium re joined, in which it did not.

Sixty of those wounded died In China, another thirteen after escaping the country with help from civillians.

Only the most important were treated if they promised to help lead the Turkish armies as their general had been killed, this made communication hard however which caused Turkey to leave the war.

Mao now noted his apponants were sick of combat and gave them a message that if they joined they wouldn't suffer conflict anymore as China and the Soviets would protect them.

Greece and Portugal agreed, albiet with a Greek civil war attatched that lasted thirty four days, leading to a democratic victory which in the end lead many to consider the deal pointless in China, it did however pull the Greeks out of the war as they had to fix there broken nation.

Meanwhile in Japan; American military had succesfully invaded Hiroshima after a fire bombing campaign.

This lead to thirty nine thousand and eight hundred more dying in the city, the city was evacuated by the military days before the fire bombings, causing much hatred to the American's by the people of Japan.

The Soviets had also just made it to the mainland, landing in Sapporo and taking out majority of the north.

It looked they'd make it to Tokyo first compared to the slow American advance.

But the United States had one trick up it's sleave.

1949: The Assasination of Hirohito and the fall of Japan.

An American elite team and snuck into the royal palace and killed most of the family, including the Emperor, all besides Atsuko Ikeda, Who was only Seventeen.

She was captured and sent to a British prison outpost in Okinawa.

Soon without the Emperor, the person whom was so worshipped by the native population, the country had surrendered.

Duirng a peace conference Japan was Split into the East and West, the Allies gained the richer west as the Soviets gained the east, the Soviets added the full Sakhlin island to The PRJ's territory, to make it seem bigger on maps and more intimidating.

Meanwhile, Tibet, Bhutan and Nepal had unified and surrendered to the PRC who took all their land as the rest of the mainland fell, the Tibet goverment was exiled to Assam as China had become stabalized under a democratic goverment and joined NATO when it formed in the same year.

The ROC and a few other nations didn't recognize the PRC's Tibet land and just recognized Greater Tibet, while others fully recognized both, Tibet had control over Assam and  The PRC over the rest,
