In-Game Description[edit | edit source]

Chintao, formerly Qingdao, is one city among many conceded to Japan in the aftermath of the Second Sino-Japanese War. Located in a strategic region which allows its owners direct access to the Yellow Sea and China proper, the city has had a history of foreign powers seizing it, first in 1898 by the German Empire, which the Japanese took in 1914 prior to its return to the Republic of China in 1922, before they seized it again once and for all during the invasion of mainland China in the Second World War. It served its new masters well, and Chintao became a valuable economic and military asset to the Empire of Japan. In the foreseeable future, the city of Chintao may turn into an economic powerhouse itself, perhaps even rivaling the power of the three pearls of Guangdong. Just maybe.
