    I've heard about the concessions in Tianjin, but this is the first time someone explained them to me. Although this might be a bit nit-picky, the flag you used for Austria-Hungary is not the national flag of the nation. That flag is the civil ensign (what they use on civilian boats) and is very different from the national flag.

      @@GwainSagaFanChannel The Dutch had a trading outpost on Taiwan/the ROC I think, with a fort at Kaohsiung (髙/高雄) city, until Chinese admiral Konxingha (郑/鄭成功) conquered Taiwan in c.1639. Soon after, China's then Ming Dynasty was replaced by the Qing Dynasty, which then ruled Taiwan, until it was ceded to Japan under the treaty of Shimonoseki after the Sino-Japanese War in 1895, all the way until Japan's defeat in WW2

    It's a miracle that they even managed to march out of Tianjin together, diverged into separate fronts and remerged in the center of Bejing without accidentally pissing off one another.

      They didn't have the time. The Japanese attacked the Italian concessions as soon as they heard of the armistice. They were besieged for a time, and then the Italian garrisons were taken prisoner. Mark Felton made a video about it (title is "Italy vs. Japan - The Forgotten Pacific War").
