Questionable Questing

Meating Leila would have been possible with a more European-focused voting block instead of the Japanese one.

I don't have anything in the CG world planned right now, but I'm probably going to include expies of a few CG characters in my story The Hand We're Dealt.

To bad, really enjoy your writing style, but I'm not a fan of any of the fandoms you're currently writing for.
Also, what would have been some ideas if Lelouch had meet Leila during the Quest, like what could have happened and what kind of goal would she have had?

I still wanna know what's significant about the year that was provided as the Chinese calendar epoch in said quest.

You'll have to remind me about that one. Nothing particularly comes to mind other than its relation to Lihua's rule.

You mentioned the Chinese Federation has had an unbroken line of dynastic succession since 127 BC. What's special about that year? It was in the middle of Emperor Wu's reign IOTL.

That's canon. IE: https://codegeass.fandom.com/wiki/Chinese_Federation

[Moreover, the Mausoleum of the 88 Emperors and said 88 emperors suggests that, assuming each Emperor ruled for about 25 years each, the Dynasty has ruled in unbroken succession from around 127 B.C., the time in which the Han Empire was in its heyday.]

Scroll down to the 'Background' section.

Oh, it's an estimate. Since Lihua's surname isn't Liu, I guess that could mean the Chinese Federation's ruling dynasty succeeded the Qin or Han dynasty.

Lihua's family name is actually Jiang, which pretty much says that her father was Jiang Jieshi - otherwise known as Chiang Kai-shek.

More likely her grandfather or great-grandfather. Was that the actual intention behind her name?

Pretty transparently the intention, yeah. But you have to remember that ATB is off by our current calendar by 55 years, IIRC. So he's probably her dad.

ATB 2000 = 1945 AD in other words.
