It's referring to Japan, since Japan started sending troops to China in the 1920s, then took over border regions, and finally started a much larger war that merged with World War II.

Like I said in an earlier thread, it really feels like the producers are just going through the motions with a lot of the content. It's like they're going down a checklist of what scenes and dialogue...

This episode corrected the negative trend of the previous installments. Everything came together very well. I was particularly impressed (and surprised) by the part where Wraith came in disguised as...

It may just be that they're constrained by the number of episodes they have to adapt each novel, but to me it seems like there hasn't been a single scene or moment that hearkens to the original FMP...

Discussion about China's role tends to paint the country and its leadership as a monolith which is misguided to say the least. There are hardliners and "liberals" in the Chinese government, which has...

This does not bode well. To me it suggests that 24 episodes (or is it 13 now?) wasn't not enough to cover all the remaining novels, so Gatoh had to come from with an abridged version, or perhaps...

The North Korea arc is overall the best-conceived in the series IMO. It combines a good amount of drama and suspense with well-placed action and resolution. Hong Kong was good as well but the...

Stay-at-home moms provide better quality of life to those around them than if you "empowered" them by sticking them in an office career. I hope Japan doesn't give into the pressure and instead...

I get the feeling that they'll either have to cut out one or more of the novels or condense everything to point where it feels more like recap than actual story. Personally I'd prefer that they cover...

One issue I can see is that even though a 4th season is confirmed, remember that it took them like 40 epsiodes to cover the first four books. IIRC there are 12 volumes for the novel and it's really...

Learned a couple things from dating a Chinese girl that I didn't learn from having a Chinese mom:
a) Chinese people seem to love keeping relationships outside the home before marriage.
b) this...

Another motivation for making such a big show of the WW2 victory I can think of would be to gain international respect. Putin and other leaders have more reason to show up to a parade celebrating the...

It's kind of unusual for the Chinese to go full Russian and put on a giant show of military force to celebrate the WW2 victory. I suspect it has not been a tradition because WW2 wasn't really the...

It's a good way for Xi Jinping to set up a nice victory parade for himself and to show the Party that he is very much in charge. WW2 is likely the least of things on his mind.

It's tradition for them, not "old-fashioned," nor is it strictly propaganda, at least not anymore. Losing 10% of your population in a war can do that.
