This is an amazing work. I won't say it is 'authentic' because you have much more immediate experience with China than I. But it has the 'feel' of authenticity... and it is well written, too.

Bravo!

The Heavenly Kingdom of Great Peace (Now THAT'S how I would name my country, even Austria-Hungary's full official name couldn't beat that :D ) is coming...


And hopefully going down fast, but I think that the Son of Heaven should learn from this rebellion and adapt some of its good qualities to the Imperial government.

Or maybe they win? Then the AAR continues as a Taiping AAR! :cool:

I have just stumbled over this AAR, and after reading only a few updates, I feel compelled to comment on how utterly absorbing this piece of work is. Fabulous.

I very much hope that you will find the time to continue this veritable Chinese epic.

I truly thank you :) I have spent some time there, but it takes a lot of reading and research to try to get these results - and the formatting, oh the formatting - the pics can be a challenge to find too.

It is a great name, isn't it :D

Who knows who will be the next son of heaven ;)

Ohhh, what a great idea. Replace those awful Qings in favour of the true Chinese eh!!! :)

jeff, out of curiosity, what do you study?

History, theology, Chinese, and English are where I seem to dedicate my studies most, friend.

Appreciate it mightily! I've worked hard on it... though, a lull of a few months.
It is not dead. China goes down now and again, but it never stays dead. NEVER.

Is this dead?

Jeff, we need you to bring this magnificent AAR back!



:) asd

NEVER! I am just so busy lately... I am sorry I've sorta let you guys down a bit, but I promise no one has seen the end of this AAR yet. Like a phoenix it shall arise from the flames...!

Oh thank you, thank you.

Or should I say xie xie :) It's these kind of comments that really fuel me. Too bad I'm travelling and working so much these months. But I promise, she'll be back.

elbasto said:
This AAR is easily amongst the best.

Too bad the author seems to be too busy =(


Busy, yes :( But Truly, it is not too busy to declare it dead. I will be back. Consider this the first course... the second course of Chinese will be here soon :D

To everyone who waited... I am back in China, and I suspect we will see more of the Empire under Heaven AAR :)

I am eagerly awaiting an Industrialized China. Would this China Embark on a series of campaigns later on in the 19th and 20th century into asserting it's dominance over the world? After all , all five Continent should be brought under the mandate of heaven if China is truly the Center of the World!

Looking forward to millions of Chinese infantrymen marching on St Peters burg , London and Washington!
