--Environment--
The Pan Asian Bloc is composed of a vast variety of highly different landscapes, with mostly plateaus and mountains in the west, and lower lands in the east. Principal rivers flow from west to east, including the Yangtze (central), the Huang He (Yellow river, north-central), and the Amur (northeast), and sometimes toward the south (including the Pearl River, Mekong River, and Brahmaputra), with most Chinese rivers emptying into the Pacific Ocean.
In the east, along the shores of the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea there
are extensive and densely populated alluvial plains. On the edges of the Inner Mongolian plateau in the north, grasslands can be seen. The southern Pan Asian Bloc is dominated by hills and low mountain ranges. In the central-east are the deltas of Pan Asian Bloc's two major rivers, the Huang He and Yangtze River (Chang Jiang). Most of Pan Asian Bloc's arable lands lie along these rivers; they were the centers of Pan Asian Bloc's major ancient civilizations. Other major rivers include the Pearl River, Mekong, Brahmaputra and Amur. Yunnan Province is considered a part of the Greater Mekong Subregion, which also includes Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam.
In the west, the north has a great alluvial plain, and the south has a vast calcareous tableland traversed by hill ranges of moderate elevation, and the Himalayas, containing Earth's highest point, Mount Everest. The northwest also has high plateaus with more arid desert landscapes such as the Takla-Makan and the Gobi Desert, which has been expanding. During many dynasties, the southwestern border of The Pan Asian Bloc has been the high mountains and deep valleys of Yunnan, which separate modern China from Burma, Laos and Vietnam.
The Paleozoic formations of The Pan Asian Bloc, excepting only the upper part of the Carboniferous system, are marine, while the Mesozoic and Tertiary deposits are estuarine and freshwater or else of terrestrial origin. Groups of volcanic cones occur in the Great Plain of northern Pan Asian Bloc. In the Liaodong and Shandong Peninsulas, there are basaltic plateaus.
The climate of The Pan Asian Bloc varies greatly. The northern zone (containing Beijing) has summer daytime temperatures of more 30 degrees and winters of Arctic severity. The central zone (containing Shanghai) has a temperate continental climate with very hot summers and cold winters. The southern zone (containing Guangzhou) has a subtropical climate with very hot summers and mild winters.
Due to a prolonged drought and poor agricultural practices, dust storms have become usual in the spring in the south. Water, erosion, and pollution control have become important issues in China's relations with other countries.
--Social--
The Pan Asian Bloc is organised through individual Communes in each town, which are responsible for every aspect of the town and the surrounding area. These communes are organised through direct participatory democracy, where the local population are free to elect anyone they choose to act as a representative for them at the national level. The population decides specific local policy through political meetings and discussions.
The Communes Representatives throughout the country meet monthly at the Communes Representatives Committee to discuss National Policy, Defence, Economics, Social Policy, and other matters important to local people. This is the closest thing the bloc has to a 'State', but to remain transparency throughout the discussions the public are welcome to attend every meeting between these officials.
--Defence--
Defence is solely provided by the peoples militia called the 'National Guard', whose commanders and other officers are elected through universal suffrage of the population. The population are solely responsible for the defence of their communes and organising any defensive capacity vital to the survival of the commune. The Communes Representatives Committee discuss organising defence on a national level to defend against foreign counter-revolutionary threats.
--Police--
There is no conventional police force, instead the population works together to eliminate crime themselves.
--Economy--
The economy is organised in an Anarcho-Communist manner, with individual communes intertrading with each other to sustain one another. All money has been abolished, as money is viewed as a capitalist tool of oppression and alienation.
