you dont get enough divs out of the states you take to properly hold your borders and fill line gaps
because china's states are massive
i ended up fleeing south to chongqing and held it for a year and then quit cause japan stopped pushing into china

Democratic Japan has a focus to give Manchuria to China in exchange for an alliance, the focus requires Japan to be a faction leader, the only way for Japan to be a faction leader is to take a focus that requires you to take another focus that declares war on China. Am I missing something here?
