How is Siujun viewed (as Zhongdao's former colonizer)?
As long as the sun and stars remain in the sky,, Siujun will be a big pot of bickering politicians.

colonization attempts

I was thinking that Zhongdao could have originally been colonized by Arumdaun for strategic and trade purposes in 1512ish(?), of course perhaps there were failed expeditions by Corumian powers prior to that. Although I apply the term 'colonizing' loosely, since it would probably only consist of control over a select few strategic ports, and then it would have been handed over to the Siujunese later, perhaps in 1531?

any precious mineral resources present in large numbers?

I was modeling the nation geographically off Cuba, so maybe nickel and bauxite?

independence date

May 16th, 1962

topography

Since I'm basing it off of Cuba geographically, I would say that Jianghua is generally flat to rolling plains apart from the Sheshan mountains or Jianghua's 'spine' as it runs through the island. However, Xunya is more mountainous and less flat.

capital city- coastal? how many people?

The capital is Shenggu and is in the Jianghua's hinterland with a population of 482,000. The nation's economic and financial capital is the coastal city of Chengzhai with a metropolitan population of 4.2 million.

urban/rural pop %

82% urban/18% rural

EDIT: Forgot Sab's,

The typical Zhongdan's view on Siujun largely depends on their ethnicity, with most Zhongdan-Siujunese, Auricher's, and Creole's having mixed to positive views of Siujun, whereas Zhongdan-Hindustani's, Javanese, Maroons, and Taíno's tend to hold more mixed to negative views of Siujun as they faced informal discrimination during colonial rule.

By 'drug' I assume you mean 'narcotic' however no, Zhongdao does not suffer from heavy involvement in the narcotics trade, although the nation is a huge transshipment point for Lucerna South American narcotics destined to Corum.

Zhongdao enforces relatively strict environmental guidelines and plans to wean it's self of fossil fuels and switch to more renewable sources.

Wahyu Somohardjo - A prominent Javanese activist who called for religious reconciliation between the Muslim Javanese and the rest of Zhongdan society.

Ehhhh, maybe, it'd have to be recently discovered though. However, even then it wouldn't be all that much, at most 5 billion barrels (which is kind of a lot)
