Pan-Asianist (Minus most of the imperialism) fever dream, basically
The way I see this timeline playing out:
1. More successful Freedom & People's Rights Movement
-----------------------------------------------------
2. Industrialized, independent Korea via successful Gapsin Coup
-----------------------------------------------------
3. Sino-Japanese War
-----------------------------------------------------
4. Industrialized China via successful Hundred Days' Reform
-----------------------------------------------------
5. Boxer Rebellion crushed by stronger Qing
-----------------------------------------------------
6. Independent Philippines via no Spanish-American War
-----------------------------------------------------
7. Xinhai Revolution still occurs and succeeds despite facing stronger resistance
-----------------------------------------------------
8. Chinese history continues as it had in OTL (Warlord Era, etc.)
-----------------------------------------------------
9. Prolonged Taishō Era (No Mukden Incident, Sino-Japanese War avoided)
-----------------------------------------------------
10. Japanese diplomatic aquisition of Southeast Asian colonies during WW2 (Granted independence after war end)
-----------------------------------------------------
11. Unified China under Nationalist government forms a regional bloc (Prevents rise of communism in Southeast Asia)
-----------------------------------------------------
12. Sino-Japanese reapproachment in order to curtail Soviet influence (Form a sort of mega-ASEAN/Asian NATO)
-----------------------------------------------------
13. Sino-Japanese split after fall of USSR
-----------------------------------------------------
12. Modern-day US-Japanese alliance/Sino-Russian alliance
I invite anyone to improve or revise this timeline if you think something is implausible or unrealistic
