The Hundred Year Leap
The Chinese people have lived under the boots of Strovalskyan economic policies, that have forced us to exile in the north. We must industrialize, develop, become greater!

"起床，你这狗屎！" was the yell of the sergeant in the camp. Conditions were... bare to say the least. The camp, located in rural Manchuria, is allegedly for "Political Re-engagement", however it's clearly for another use. Chinese infrastructure is beyond awful; even the most basic agricultural tools are locked away in the hands of the elite. As had been for the past hundred years, since the Chinese Revolution.

But what's happening now is far, far worse. The Chinese government, targeting Strovalskyan elites and foreigners, conscript citizens into the "All-China Industrial Concern", a forced labour organisation intended to transport POWs and civilians alike to factories across China. But before it was only criminals.

The train rattled as it trundled along the pass, the insides dark and damp. The only light available was a thin slit on the carriage window, as the prisoners sat on benches, tied down by their necks. What crime, you ask, did they commit? Most were landowners, some were students. Others yet were Igatovites the same, who did not conform to the semi-Orthodox Neo-Igatovism practised here.
