Developer Notes

 * Jiang Zemin did many things in the 2000s that are seen as positive; the peaceful return of Hong Kong and Macau to China occured during his Presidency being notable. He opened China to the outside world with hands of peace and influenced Kim Jong-il to inact a tolerance of the free market (which in turn bettered the lives of many North Koreans). One of the things he attempted to do before stepping down form office was establish a guiding principle for China to follow int he 21st Century. This philosophy is called the 'Three Represents'. The Three Represents was in OTL adopted into Party Doctirine in 2002 it promotes economic growth, cultural development, and poltiical consensus. Those three where to represent the success of China. The Philosphoy in OTL was replaced in 2007 by the Scentific Outlook on Development . The situation in China is complictated as while Jaing's reforms and those of his successors allowed the Chinese Nation to prosper it also saw the rise of a class society that had nearly been extinguished under hardline Maoist doctrine. This rise of a middle class became concerning to party conservatives in the 2000s. We must proceed carefully; our first point of interest lies with Bill Clinton. Again I iterate that we are focusing on people so many lives are being analyzed in this endeavor.
