}}The Great Asian War is a conflict that erupts between the [[Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere|Co-Prosperity Sphere]] and the [[National Liberation Front]] sometime after the Fall of Nanjing to the [[National Protection Army]], though some may argue that the Great Asian War started in the beginning of the Western Insurrection between the [[Republic of China]] and NPA.

The rapid military buildup to liberate China from what Long Yun saw as
Ultimately, this ultimatum would be rejected, kickstarting the Western Insurrection. Due to the extreme manpower inequality between the two belligerents, an AI-controlled NPA would usually capitulate within a few months, with neither side garnering enough support to gain any allies.

By the 1960s, the majority of the [[National Protection Army]], [[National Revolutionary Army]], [[Chinese Communist Party]] and other southwestern bandits were countered by [[Yunnan Province|Yunnan]] governor [[Lu Han]]'s plans to develop and modernise the province, employing militia and guards to counter their influences and effects on the state, while also massively developing the province economically to be on par with the rest of the
