@SeaYa said in Need help determining the fate of manufacturing in Kwangtung:
That’s an interesting point! The rules often refer to “originally controlled” territories, to which the national emblem markers are referenced, regardless of current occupation. I wondered if the phrase “Chinese territory”, without the explicit “original” verbiage allowed for a Chinese occupied territory to be considered Chinese.
The sentence I quoted above seems pretty airtight, especially in the context of the rest of the section.
I think it is a moot point in this case, as I believe the Chinese are restricted from building factories anyway, but an interesting point to consider: is a (insert power) territory only restricted to original territories when referenced in the rules, or, without the word “original” explicitly stated, does it also expand to include occupied albiet not original?
I don’t believe there are any other such instances in the rules. In any case, I would say not, as the rules often also refer to “X-controlled” territories.
