The '''State of Guangdong''' is a country located in southern China, occupying the majority of Guangdong province. A puppet state of [[Empire of Japan|Japan]], Guangdong borders the [[Republic of China]] to the north and east, the South China Sea to the south and the [[Guangxi Clique]] to the west. |

''Carved out of the Republic of China as a concession to the Zaibatsu at the end of the Greater East Asian War, the State of Guangdong is an experiment in corporate colonialism, an unnatural entity existing between its Chinese roots and its Japanese suzerain. Despite its independence, Guangdong is far beneath Japan, China, or even Manchukuo in status - its Chief Executive playing second fiddle to the rest of the Co-Prosperity Sphere, even as the Four Companies of Guangdong greedily exploit Guangdong's land and people for their own benefit.'' |

''Guangdong is a country without a nation: a society bound together by wire transfers, banknotes, and share certificates. In the glittering Three Pearls of Guangdong - Honkon, Makao, and Kōshu - the Four Companies and the Chief Executive indulge in boardroom politics as the Japanese expatriates lord over the Cantonese-Japanese Zhujin, who struggle for recognition as second-class citizens. Beneath them all, the Chinese are herded from their ancestral towns into the electronics sweatshops on the Pearl River, a people displaced inside their own homeland. And as Asia awakens, few ask: will Guangdong survive the storm to come?'' |

===Country Overview=== |
|||
{{Template:Spoiler}} |
|||
Carved out from the <span style="color:dodgerblue">Republic of China</span> as an independent state by Japanese fiat in the Kanton Protocols of 1950, the <span style="color:salmon">State of Guangdong</span> is an experiment unlike any other in history: an artificial nation dedicated solely to corporate colonialism. Where the <span style="color:saddlebrown">Empire of Japan's</span> other conquests in Asia - even its most artificial child, the <span style="color:darkorange">Empire of Manchuria</span> - pay lip service to the <span style="color:red">Co-Prosperity Sphere</span>'s vision of Pan-Asianism, Guangdong stands alone in its devotion to the yen under the whim of its <span style="color:yellow">Four Companies</span> - <span style="color:red">Sony</span>, <span style="color:white">Matsushita Electric</span>, <span style="color:deepskyblue">Fujitsu</span>, and <span style="color:yellow">Yasuda</span>. Through a combination of neglect from Tokyo and the reckless ambition of its tycoons, Guangdong has become a place in the Sphere where pretenses fall away in favor of naked greed and the pursuit of profit. But all is not well inside the world's only bastion of unchecked capitalism. |
|||
The native <span style="color:royalblue">Chinese</span> population toils endlessly in the factories of the Three Pearls of Guangdong - Kōshu (Guangzhou), Honkon (Hong Kong), and Makao (Macau) - while receiving none of the benefits accruing to the <span style="color:darkred">Japanese industrialists and expatriates</span> that oversee their corporate exclave. Between them, the <span style="color:mediumvioletred">Zhujin</span> - educated professionals and businessmen, fluent in Japanese but local to Guangdong - both serve and benefit from Guangdong's economic order, a middle class decried as collaborators by the <span style="color:royalblue">Chinese</span> and seen as useful proxies by the <span style="color:darkred">Japanese expatriates</span>. <span style="color:red">Crime and corruption</span> are widespread, with the <span style="color:limegreen">Triads</span> and <span style="color:mediumvioletred">Yakuza</span> vying for control over the web of vice that sprawls across Guangdong's underground, in defiance of an undermanned <span style="color:cornflowerblue">Guangdong Police Force</span> and an uncaring <span style="color:darkred">Kenpeitai</span> garrison. In Guangdong, crime is less an aberration than simply another means of doing business, a reciprocal relationship of favors done and debts owed. |
|||
==[[File:LegCo Icon.png|40px|link=]] The Legislative Council== |
|||
Internationally, Guangdong is afforded the trappings of a country and little else. <span style="color:dodgerblue">China</span> - holding fast to its pride - refuses to accord Guangdong's representatives the equal treatment they deserve, while <span style="color:saddlebrown">Japan's</span> attention has long since drifted away from its unnatural tributary. <span style="color:darkorange">Manchukuo</span> - the original pan-Asian experiment - remains the crown jewel of the Sphere, equally condescending towards China's poverty and Guangdong's corporate upstarts alike. Guangdong is a country without a nation, in either spirit or in form. And as <span style="color:salmon">Chief Executive Suzuki Teiichi</span> begins his uneasy mission to bring Guangdong and its corporations back into Japan's dominion, the people and tycoons of Guangdong wait, <span style="color:yellow">and yearn for a future, a nation, that could yet be theirs</span>. |

[[File:Guangdong LegCo Start.png|350px|thumb|right|Composition of the Legislative Council at the start of 1962|link=]] |
|||
Inside [[File:Guangdong Generic Icon.png|20px]] <span style="color:salmon">Guangdong's state of corporations</span>, something resembling a democratic Parliament akin to the ones in Japan and Britain exist. Though these seats are not elected, rather they comprise <span style="color:yellow">100 of the most important businessmen in Guangdong</span>. These businessmen are the ones who vote on the <span style="color:yellow">ordinances of Guangdong</span>, which dictate policy and the future direction of Guangdong. The businessmen flock to where it is most profitable to be, and their votes and loyalty are traded as currency by the different presidents of the main companies of <span style="color:salmon">Guangdong</span>, or are in some cases <span style="color:salmon">bought away to change the dynamics of the Council</span>. |
|||
=Guangdong (Characters)= |
|||
The Chief Executive proposes the ordinances of the [[File:LegCo Small Icon.png|20px]] <span style="color:salmon">Legislative Council</span>, and should <span style="color:yellow">50 seats support the ordinance</span>, it will go into effect. The businessmen are not bound loyally to a corporation however. For the <span style="color:yellow">ordinances of Guangdong</span>, the usual voting period for it is <span style="color:yellow">30 Days</span>, though exceptions can occur in special cases. An ordinance usually does not survive <span style="color:yellow">without changes</span> and might need amendments which will be proposed by other parties to seek out more than <span style="color:yellow">5</span> amendments. Whenever a bill's vote had been concluded, it will be archived in the <span style="color:yellow">ordinance history</span>, and will stay there to document the history of <span style="color:salmon">Guangdong's Legislative Council</span>. |
