It's just plain old capitalism.

It's the perfect temperature for brine though

I like your style

Aren't most of these companies too big to merge with each other?

My guess is the current front line will soon become the new borders

Yup, China will inevitably transition into a democratic socialist state, ceding the means of production over to the people. Not turning into a capitalist Republic that's controlled by wealthy oligarchs.

You're gonna be waiting a long time

At what point has enough time gone on before Taiwan is no longer a government in exile? Maybe 5-10 years, but that war ended in 1949. If you really think China and Taiwan should fight to death to determine who's the true ruler than I think that's pretty fucked up. Maybe you think the US should be a British colony again? Or maybe Ukraine should be part of Russia again? At this point the CCP has controlled China longer than the Kuomintang did, so I think that means they win.

My character is such a moron it'll break your campaign

If you're aware of history, then how exactly is China not China? I must've missed a century somewhere

You must be one of those people that can't accept when civil wars are lost. I'm assuming you're also waiting for the South to rise again.

Your speculating that I'm speculating is also speculation! You are the one whomst engages in frantic semantic antics!

Don't be mad cuz you're wrong. Xi Jinping stated that he has plans to peacefully reunify Taiwan and China. How you want to interpret that is up to you, but the media wants you to interpret "peaceful reunification" as "violent invasion." If you want to believe that, that's on you.

I think China is more than capable of reunification of Taiwan peacefully and invading would be a real dumb idea. Also, according to their own news, only 48.9% of the Taiwanese people support national Independence. So there's definitely a possibility of China winning the people over.

The entire idea of reunification is that it is supported by the will of the people. I'm not speculating that it will be peaceful, I'm just pointing out what Xi said. You claiming that he's lying is speculation.

The Kuomintang party is willing to cooperate, while the Democratic party is not

No, that's annexation, ya dingus

The Kuomintang party supports one China

That's pure speculation on your part. Xi specifically stated the goal is peaceful reunification.

Reunification of Germany was entirely nonviolent.

"...beef cattle operations with an opportunity to generate offset credits that they can sell."

This creates a market for selling beef cattle credits. They have to sell the credits to someone. Do you think a company that is also engaging in these incentives would buy the credits? Or maybe the credits would be purchased by companies that aren't helping the environment? It's the second one, btw.
