Manchukuo (No Communism)

Manchukuo is a nation located in East Asia. It was originally established as a Japanese puppet state, although in recent years it has gained some legitimacy. It is a member of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.

Qing Dynasty
After the Manchu tribes they replaced the Ming dynasty with the Qing. However, the Qing emperors did not fully integrate their homeland into China. This legal and, to a degree, ethnic division persisted until the Qing dynasty began to fall apart in the 1800s.

As the court in Beijing weakened, many outlying regions, such as Kashgar, became independant or fell under the control of the Imperialist powers. In the 1800s, the Russian Empire was most interested in the northern lands of the Qing Empire. In 1958, Russia gained control of a huge track of land called Outer Manchuria thanks to the Supplementary Treaty of Beijing that ended the Second Opium War. Russia was evidently not satisfyed by this, and made numerous attempts to control the rest of Manchuria as the Qing Dynasty continued to decline. Inner Manchuria came under a strong Russian influence in the 1890s with the building of the Chinese East Railway through Harbin to Valdivostok.
