The joint Chinese and Korean Peoples Republic

At first the Western sponsored uprisings sparked in Tibet and Turkmenistan were a small issue for the Marxist-Leninist hardliners in control of China but as money and arms flowed to the insurgents their cause grew and soon they became a significant threat. The security of the Chinese state was in question and popular uprisings in Beijing, Nanking, and some other major cities further destabilized the government. As war broke out they were in no condition to fight only a small force could be mustered and they were soon overrun in Manchuria and the southern provinces leaving a densely concentrated pocket of chinese defenders cut off from Communist Chinese held lands they were outnumbered and encircled. Heroically they held out for 7 months in Xi’an giving the communist government time to recover and build up as winter arrived the communist government had built up the sheer number of defenders to hold off the the capitalists and take South Korea a stalemate endured for 4 years before an armistice was signed and the war came to and end. The current borders are a result of the treaty. There is an uneasy peace and war could break out once again at any second.
