Service providers typically receive and transmit broadband data over a fixed connection to end-user equipment. The speed or amount of data that a user receives will be limited due to various factors such as the capacity of the connection, the contention ratio, or simply because the user subscribes to a low speed service.
Certain satellite television providers also deliver broadband data by satellite transmission. A wired DSL connection provides the uplink in the conventional way but the entire downlink is by means of a satellite transmission. Only one satellite is employed for the downlink and the capacity is limited thereby restricting download speeds. Also, if the satellite fails, there is no downlink.
With video streaming and online gaming becoming increasingly popular, there exist disadvantages with such speed-limited services.
In many countries, digital terrestrial television (DTTV) is the norm or is becoming the norm for delivering terrestrial television services. Users typically have a DTTV set-top box connected to their television set. Users are often in-range of multiple DTTV transmitters each of which transmits television channels on encoded broadcast streams, or multiplexes.
The term broadband data in the context of this disclosure is intended to mean packetized data, typically encoded using the Internet Protocol (IP) or variants thereof. Fixed connections mean any connection between the user's premises and the Internet access point that is wired or cabled (generally termed “fixed-line” connections) and, also, fixed wireless connections which provide point-to-point (non-broadcast) connections. The term therefore covers Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) and optical fibre connections. “xDSL” is sometimes used to refer to any of an increasing family of DSL technologies, but the term “DSL” will in general be used here.

Quan sát này rất đáng quan tâm vì cấu trúc phân tử của axit béo trong phân tử lipid có ảnh hưởng sâu sắc đến việc đóng gói của các phân tử này trong một lớp kép vì cardiolipin là một thành phần của IM của ty thể, ái lực cao của nó với axit erucic có thể ảnh hưởng đến CF bình thường của màng trong của ty thể tim

The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear University	of	Nebraska–Lincoln <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_EMAIL_ADDRESS> July	21, 2014 Abstract One	of	the	central	debates	in	contemporary	Kant	scholarship	concerns	whether	Kant	endorses	a	"conceptualist"	account	of	the	nature	of	sensory	experience. Understanding	the debate	is	crucial	for	getting	a	full	grasp	of	Kant's	theory	of	mind, cognition, perception, and epistemology. This	paper	situates	the	debate	in	the	context	of	Kant's	broader	theory	of	cognition	and	surveys	some	of	the	major	arguments	for	conceptualist	and	non-conceptualist interpretations	of	his	critical	philosophy. 1 Introduction O NE OF THE CENTRAL TOPICS OF DEBATE in	contemporary	Kant	scholarship	has been	whether	Kant	endorses	a	position	concerning	the	nature	of	sensory	experience	called	"conceptualism." As	a	first	approximation, conceptualism	about experience	is	the	claim	that	the	capacity	for	conscious	sensory	experience	of	the	objective	world	depends, at	least	in	part, on	the	repertoire	of	concepts	possessed	by	the experiencing	subject, insofar	as	they	are	exercised	in	acts	of	synthesis	by	the	cognitive faculty	which	Kant	terms	the	"understanding"	[Verstand]. Exactly	how	we	should	understand	this	dependence	relation, as	well	as	the	notion	of	experience	that	it	presupposes, is	something	we	will	discuss	in	much	further	detail	below. The	historical	question	as	to whether	Kant	endorsed	conceptualism	has	also	been	linked	to	the	philosophical	question	as	to	the	commitments	of	the	conceptualist	position	and	whether	it	is, in	the	end, a	tenable	one. For	the	purposes	of	this	article	I shall	focus	primarily	on	the	historical	question, and thus	I will	largely	ignore	issues	in	the	philosophy	of	mind	and	perception	literature	that have	arisen	independently	of	the	scholarly	debate	concerning	Kant.1 The	argument	of	this	paper	proceeds	as	follows. §2	briefly	sketches	the	fundamental	elements	of	Kant's	theory	of	cognition. §3	articulates	several	major	considerations which	help	to	define	the	non-conceptualist	interpretation	of	Kant. In	§4	I elaborate	the conceptualist	interpretation	of	Kant. I present	and	to	some	extent	revise	what	I take	to be	the	core	interpretive	commitments	of	the	conceptualist	position. §5	discusses	several major	objections	to	conceptualism	and	non-conceptualism, as	well	as	a	central	issue of	contemporary	interest-viz. the	so-called	"Myth	of	the	Given"	and	its	connection	to the	conceptualism	debate. I then	summarize	the	argument	of	the	paper. 1 For	a	useful	overview	of	the	contemporary	literature	see Gunther	(2003); Siegel	(2010); Van Cleve	(2012). 1 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear 2 A Sketch	of	Kant's	Theory	of	Cognition Kant's	conception	of	our	mental	economy	is	basically	tripartite, consisting	of	sensations [Empfindungen], intuitions [Anschauungen] and concepts [Begriffe].2 These are all varieties	of	what	Kant	calls	"representation"	[Vorstellung].3 In	what	is	generally	called	the	"stepladder"	[Stufenleiter]	passage	from	the	Transcendental	Dialectic	of	the	first Critique, one	of	the	few	places	in	the	Kantian	corpus	where he	explicitly	discusses	the	meanings	of	and	relations	between	his	technical	terms, Kant defines	and	classifies	varieties	of	representation. The category is representation (representatio) in general. Under it stand representations with consciousness (perceptio). A perception [Wahrnehmung], that relates solely to a subject as a modification of its state, is sensation (sensatio). An objective perception is cognition (cognitio). This is either intuition or concept (intuitus vel conceptus). The	first	relates	immediately	to	the	object	and	is	singular; the	second	is mediate, conveyed by a	mark, which can be common to	many things (A320/B376–7).4 As	Kant's	discussion	here	indicates, the	category	of	representation	contains	sensation, intuition, and concept. The faculty that provides sensory representations is called "sensibility" [Sinnlichkeit]. Sensibility generates representations based on being affected	either	by	entities	distinct	from	the	subject	or	by	the	subject	herself. This	is	in contrast	to	the	faculty	of	"understanding"	[Verstand]	which	generates	representations "spontaneously"-i.e. without	advertance	to	affection. 2 There	are	other	signficant	representational	kinds, such	as schemata and ideas, but	the	interpretive	tradition	has	focused	primarily	on	sensations, intuitions, and	concepts. I follow	that	tradition	in	my	discussion here. One	could, however, object	that	the	debate	is	not	well-formed, and	emphasize	the	importance of	including, e.g., schemata, in	the	discussion	of	the	relationship	between	concept	possession	and	perceptual	experience. For	discussion	of	schemata	in	the	generation	of	perceptual	"images"	see Matherne (Unpublished); cf. Griffith	(2012); Williams	(2012). 3 We	might	question	whether	it	is	best	to	translate	"Vorstellung"	as	"representation." The	reason	for	hesitation	has	largely	to	do	with	the	baggage	which	the	term	"representation"	carries	within	contemporary philosophy. It	is	often	characterized	as	an	"inner," causally	relevant, and	perhaps	functionally	defined state, whose	semantic	content	allows	it	to	play	a	role	in	the	cognitive	life	of	subject. In	what	follows	I will	translate	"Vorstellung"	as	"representation"	but	I wish	to	highlight	here	the	importance	of	not	simply equating	Kant's	use	of	"Vorstellung"	with	a	representationalist	theory	of	perception. For	an	argument	that Kant	does not endorse	such	a	theory	see McLear	(Forthcoming	b)	and	§3.1	below; cf. Gomes	(2014). 4 Quotations	from	Kant's	work	are	from	theAkademie	Ausgabe, with	the	firstCritique cited	by	the	standard A/B edition	pagination, and	the	other	works	by	volume	and	page. Translations	are	from	the	Cambridge Editions	of	the	Works	of	Immanuel	Kant, general	editors	Paul	Guyer	and	Allen	Wood. I have, on	some occasions, made	slight	modifications	without	further	comment. Specific	texts	are	abbreviated	as	follows: July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 2 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear Kant	claims	that	all the	representations	generated	via	sensibility	are	structured	by two	"forms"	of	intuition-space	and	time-and	that	all	sensory	aspects	of	our	experience	are	their	"matter"	(A20/B34). The	simplest	way	of	understanding	what	Kant	means by	"form"	here	is that	all	perceivables	will	be	such	as to	either	have	spatial features (e.g. extension, shape, location), or	temporal	features	(e.g. being	successive	or	simultaneous).5 So	the	formal	element	of	an	empirical	intuition, or	sense	perception, will always	be	either	spatial	or	temporal, while	the	material	element	is	always	sensory	(in the	sense	of	determining	the	phenomenal	or	"what	it	is	like"	character	of	experience), and	tied	to	one	or	more	of	the	five	senses, or	the	feelings	of	pleasure	and	displeasure. Kant	ties	the	two	forms	of	intuition	to	two	distinct	spheres, the	inner	and	the	outer. The	outer	concerns	the	spatial	world	of	particular	material	objects	while	the	inner	concerns	temporally	ordered	states	of	mind. Space	is	thus	the	form	of	"outer	sense"	while time	is	the	form	of	"inner	sense"	(A22/B37; cf. An	7:154). In	the	Transcendental	Aesthetic, Kant	is	primarily	concerned	with	"pure"	[rein]	intuition, and	often	only	speaks in	passing	of	the	sense	perception	of	physical	bodies	(e.g. A20–1/B35). However, Kant more	clearly	links	the	five	senses	with	intuition	in	the	1798 Anthropology	from	a	Pragmatic	Point	of	View, in	the	section	entitled	"On	the	Five	Senses." Sensibility in	the	cognitive	faculty	(the	faculty	of	intuitive	representations) contains two	parts: sense and the imagination...But the senses, on the other	hand, are	divided	into outer and inner sense	(sensus	internus); the first	is	where	the	human	body	is	affected	by	physical	things, the	second	is where	the	human	body	is	affected	by	the	mind	(An	7:153). An: Anthropology	from	a	Pragmatic	Point	of	View CJ: Critique	of	Judgment G: Groundwork	for	the	Metaphysics	of	Morals JL: Jäsche	Logic LL: Lectures	on	Logic NM: Attempt	to	Introduce	the	Concept	of	Negative	Magnitudes	into	Philosophy OD:On	a	Discovery	Whereby	any	New	Critique	of	Pure	Reason	is	to	be	Made	Superfluous	by	an	Older One Pr: Prolegomena	to	any	Future	Metaphysics R: Notes	and	Fragments 5 There	are	complications	here	that	I cannot	go	into, concerning	whether	or	how	spatial	objects	might be	represented	as	standing	in	temporal	relations	with	one	another	given	that	"Time	can	no	more	be intuited	externally	than	space	can	be	intuited	as	something	in	us"	(A22-3/B37). Kant	goes	on	to	say	that outer	objects	are	temporally	related	only	"mediately", in	virtue	of	their	representations	being	temporally related	in	inner	sense	(A34/B50-1). Thus, though	outer	objects	may	be	said	to	stand	in	temporal	relations, time	is	not	an	a	priori	condition	of	the	appearance	of	an	outer	object	in	the	way	that	space	is. Whether this	means	that	objects	in	space	only seem to	be	in	time, in	virtue	of	their	representations	being	intuited as	standing	in	temporal	relations	in	inner	sense, goes	beyond	what	I can	discuss	here. For	discussion see Van Cleve	(1999), ch. 5; Brook	(2013). July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 3 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear Kant	characterizes intuition	generally in terms	of two	characteristics-viz. immediacy [Unmittelbarkeit]	and particularity [Einzelheit]	(cf. A19/B33, A68/B93; JL 9:91). This	is	in	contrast	to	the	mediacy	and	generality	[Allgemeinheit]	characteristic	of	conceptual	representation	(A68/B93; JL 9:91). Kant	contrasts the	particularity	of intuition	with the	generality	of	concepts in the "stepladder"	passage	(see	the	first	quote	above). But	the	specific	remark	he	makes	is	that a	concept	is	related	to	its	object	via	"a	mark, which	can	be	common	to	many	things" (A320/B377)	and	this	suggests	that	intuition, in	contrast	to	concepts, puts	a	subject	in cognitive	contact	with	features	of	an	object	that	are	not	had	by	other	things.6 Spatiotemporal	properties	seem	like	excellent	candidates	for	such	features.7 But	pehaps	any non-repeatable, non-universal	feature	of	a	perceived	object	will	do.8 Does	the	occurrence	of	an	intuition	count	as	having	an	experience, in	our	contemporary	sense	of	a	cognitively	significant	mental	event	or	state	with	a	particular	(sensemodal)	phenomenal	character?9 More	generally, does	Kant's	usage	of	terms	like	"perception"	[Wahrnehmung]	and	"experience"	[Erfahrung]	cleanly	match	up	with	ours? Given	how	slippery	these	terms	are, even	in	their	everyday	usage, we	should	be	somewhat	cautious	in	thinking	that	they	do. At	least	two	worries	loom	large	here. First, we might	worry	that	disputes	concerning	the	necessary	conditions	of	having	a	"perception" or	an	"experience"	are	merely	verbal. Second, we	might	worry	that	the	concepts	<perception>	and	<experience>	are	not	well-defined, and	thus	that	no	substantive	dispute should	hang	on	either	of them. For the	purposes	of this	paper, I shall take the	concepts	<perception>	and	<experience>	as	sufficiently	well-defined	that	we	can	credibly 6 There	is	a	further	controversy	here	as	whether	the	immediacy	of	intuition	is	compatible	with	an	intuition's relating	to	an	object	by	means	of	marks	or	whether	relation	by	means	of	marks	entails	mediacy, and thus	that	only	concepts	relate	to	objects	by	means	of	marks. See Smit	(2000)	for	discussion. 7 This	is	true	at	least	if	we	assume	that	spatio-temporal	location	is	sufficient	to	individuate	one	thing	from another. Certainly	Kant	thought	this	the	case; cf. B327-8. 8 For	example, intuition	may	give	a	subject	perceptual	access	to	the	tropes	characterizing	an	object. For the	suggestion	of	a	view	along	these	lines	see Smit	(2000); Grüne	(2009), 50, 66-70. 9 A note	about	the	use	of	"cognitive"	here. There	is	a	difference	between	mental	states	which	possess	phenomenal	characteristics	but	no	seeming	objective	cognitive	features, such	as	what	happens	in	"seeing stars"	or	being	poked	in	the	eye, etc., and	states	that	are	both	phenomenally	rich	and	cognitive, such as	having	a	perceptual	experience	as	of	some	object	in	one's	environment, such	as	a	tree	or	animal. There	is, of	course, a	serious	question	as	to	whether	or	how	these	two	kinds	of	states	might	be	related. I shall	take	it	that	Kant's	usage	of	"intuition"	is	meant	to	designate	a cogntive state	rather	than	a	state which	merely	possesses	phenomenal	character. The	latter	seems	to	most	consistently	be	designated	by the	term	"sensation"	[Empfindung], or	more	precisely, by	"feeling"	[Gefühl]. This	is	especially	clear	in Kant's	discussion	of	sensation	and	feeling	in	the	third Critique; cf. CJ 5:189, 203-6. Whether	and	how such	cognitive	and	non-cognitive	states	are	related	is	a	complex	issue, and	we'll	touch	on	it	further	in the	discussion	of	conceptualism	below. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 4 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear dispute	over	the	necessary	conditions	for	their	instantiation.10 But	I do	think	that	it	is necessary	to	say	something	about	the	possibility	of	a	merely	verbal	dispute	concerning the	conditions	for	the	occurrence	of	a	perceptual	experience. Kant	obviously	makes	a	distinction	between	"experience"	[Erfahrung]	and	"intuition" [Anschauung]. He	is	clear	that	"experience," in	his	sense	of	an	"empirical	cognition" [empirische	Erkenntnis], includes	conceptual synthesis, since	such	synthesis is	what binds	the	various	elements	of	an	empirical	cognition	together	such	that	they	are	nonarbitrarily	connected (cf. B12, B161, B201, B218, B233).11 As	a result, we	cannot understand	the	(non)-conceptualism	debate	as	concerning	"experience"	in	Kant's	sense of	the	term. Non-conceptualist	interpreters	all	concede	that	Kant's	usage	of	"experience" [Erfahrung]	and	"empirical	cognition"	[empirische	Erkenntnis]	typically	is	meant	in	a way	that	assumes	some	sort	of	cognitive	contribution	by	the	understanding. The	difficulties	that	result	in	trying	to	pin	down	Kant's	use	of	"experience"	[Erfahrung] have	not	gone	unnoticed in the literature.12 For	example, Hannah	Ginsborg	has	argued	that	Kant's	argument	that	the	understanding	must	be	active	in	the	generation	or constitution	of	"Erfahrung"	is	potentially	ambiguous	between	designating	sense	modal specific states of phenomenal consciousness-"sense impressions"-and full-blown perceptual judgments. But it	seems	clear that	Kant	himself took	the terms"intuition" [Anschauung], "perception"	[Wahrnehmung], and	"experience"	[Erfahrung]	to	designate	different	things.13 Intuition	is	a	relation	to	an	"undetermined"	[unbestimmt]	object	or	an	"appearance"	[Erscheinung]	(A20/B34). Intuition	is	distinguished	from	"perception"	[Wahrnehmung]	by	virtue	of the	subject's	being	conscious	of the	"content" [Inhalt]	of the intuition (more	on the	notion	of "content"	below) (Pr	4:300; cf. A99, A119-20, B162, B202-3).14 Finally, "experience" [Erfahrung] involves the synthesis of	perceptions	[Wahrnehmungen]	via	application	of	(or	perhaps	guidance	by)	the	categories. "Experience is	cognition through	connected	perceptions [durch	verknüpfte 10 See Hinton	(1973); Byrne	(2009)	for	contemporary	discussion	of	worries	concerning	the	notion	of	an "experience". 11 As	Kant	says	in	the Prolegomena, "Experience	consists	in	the	synthetic	connection	[Verknüpfung]	of	appearances	(perceptions)	in	a	consciousness, insofar	as	this	connection	is	necessary"	(Pr	4:305; cf. 4:275; B147, B218, B227). 12 See	the	discussion	in Van Cleve	(1999), 74-6; Ginsborg	(2006b). 13 Thanks	to	Clinton	Tolley	for	discussion	concerning	these	and	related	points. 14 What	exactly is intended	by	Kant's	use	of "conscious" [Bewusst] and	"consciousness" [Bewusstsein] further	complicates	matters. Significantly, for	our	purposes, we	cannot	take	for	granted	that	Kant	means to	indicate	what we typically	mean	in	using	the	term-viz. "phenomenal	consciousness"	or	"what	it	is like"	to	have	the	relevant	experience. Kant	typically	uses	the	term	in	the	Leibniz-Wolff	sense	in	which it	indicates	the	extent	to	which	the	representing	subject	can	distinguish	between	objects	or	the	parts	of objects. See Wunderlich	(2005); La Rocca	(2008a), La Rocca	(2008b); Grüne	(2009), ch.1; Sturm	and Wunderlich	(2010); McLear	(2011)	for	discussion. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 5 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear Wahrnehmungen]"	(B161; cf. B218; Pr	4:300). This	threefold	distinction	is	also	confirmed	in	the	headings	to	the	first	three	chapters	of	the	Principles	of	the	first Critique, in	which	Kant	distinguishes	between	the	"Axioms	of Intuition", the	"Anticipations	of Perception", and	the	"Analogies	of	Experience". If	Kant weren't thinking	that	the	terms the	terms	"intuition"	[Anschauung], "perception"	[Wahrnehmung], and	"experience" [Erfahrung]	designated	distinct	mental	states, then	it	would	be	difficult	to	understand why	he	ordered	a	central	part	of	his	architectonic	around	them. There is	also	a	prima	facie tension	between	the	suggestion	above, that	we	distinguish	"intuition" from	"perception"-i.e	"Wahrnehmung"-and	Kant's remark in the Stufenleiter passage	quoted	above, that	"perception"	[perceptio]	is	the	category	of	"representation	with	consciousness", in	which	he	includes	intuition. One	difficulty	is	that "Wahrnehmung", "perceptio", and	"Perzeption"	are	all	typically	translated	in	English using	"perception", while	it	is	unclear	that	all	these	terms	mean	the	same	thing	for	Kant, or	that	they	mean	what wemean, using	"perception"	in	its	contemporary	English	sense. But	the	difficulty	isn't	just	related	to	the	problem	of	English	translation; rather, the	text of	the Stufenleiter seems	to	define	intuition	in	terms	of	being	a	conscious	representation (and thus	a "perceptio"), but I suggested	above the	Kant	distinguishes intuition from Wahrnehmung by	appeal	to	the	presence	of	consciousness	in	the	latter	but	not the	former. One	possible	move	in	resolving	this	tension	is	to	say	that	the	notion	of	"consciousness" in the Stufenleiter concerns consciousness of the representation, rather than, specifically, its	content. Intuitions, on	this	reading, would	be	conscious	representations, but	the	sense	in	which	they	are	conscious	differs	from	that	of	a Wahrnehmung. There is	already	ground	for	such	a	distinction	in	Kant's	differentiation	between	the	consciousness inherent in the awareness of a representation-its "clarity" [Klarheit], which requires	only	that	the	representation	suffice	for	distinguishing	an	object	from	others- and	the	consciousness	inherent	in	the	awareness	of	the	content	of	a	representation-its "distinctness"	[Deutlichkeit], which	requires	that	one	clearly	represent	all	the	different parts	of	the	content	of	the	representation	(or	the	parts	of	its	corresponding	object)	(An 7:137-8; cf. JL 9:34; R 643, 15:283; R 1709, 16:89).15 This	means	of resolving the issue	is	perhaps	made	even	more	attractive	by	Kant's	remark	in	the Anthropology that, distinctness	alone	makes	it	possible	that	an	aggregate	[Summe]	of	representations	becomes	a	cognition	[Erkenntnis], in	which	order	is	thought	in this	manifold, because	every	conscious	combination	[Zusammensetzung mit	Bewusstsein]	presupposes	unity	of	consciousness, and	consequently	a rule	for	the	combination. (7:138) 15 There	are	complications, however, in simply equating clarity	and	consciousness; cf. B414-15, note. Kant	also	seems	quite	happy	to	entertain	the	possibility	of	unconscious	or	"obscure"	[Dunkel]	intuitions (An	7:135); cf. Wunderlich	(2005), 141-2; Grüne	(2009), ch. 1.3. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 6 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear This	passage suggests that	an intuition, of itself, is	at	best	conscious in the sense	of being clear [klar]. When	an	intuition	is	apprehended	in	an	act	ofWahrnehmung (cf. Pr 4:300), its	content	is	brought	together	in	such	a	way	that	it	becomes	(at	least	to	some degree) distinct [deutlich], and	thus	a	candidate	for	cognition. In	this	manner, we	seem able	to	resolve	the	tension	between	the	account	of	the	difference	between	intuition	and Wahrnehmung offered	above	and	Kant's	remarks	in	the Stufenleiter.16 Given	the	difficulty	of	providing	a	precise	account	of	how	Kant's	terminology	maps onto	contemporary	usage	(assuming	that	it	does	at	all), I focus	below	on	what	I take to be a central aspect of the contemporary debate between conceptualist and nonconceptualist	interpretations	of	Kant-viz. whether intuitions, understood	by	this	debate	as	mental	states	which	are	both	cognitive, and	have	sense-modal	specific	phenomenal	character, depend	on	(and	in	what	way	they	depend	on)	acts	of	the	understanding. The	emphasis	on	intuition	is	grounded	in	Kant's	texts	insofar	as	Kant	repeatedly	cites empirical	intuition	as	that	which	is	our	first	or	primary	means	of	being	sensorily	related to	actual	objects	(Pr	4:283; cf. Pr	4:350; B160; A180/B222; OD 8:217). I shall	freely use	the	terms	"perception", "experience", and	"perceptual	experience"	to	describe	the mental	states	Kant	designates	by	"intuition"	[Anschauung], so	long	as	it	is	understood that	these	English	terms	are	meant	in	our	contemporary	usage, not	necessarily	Kant's. So	I use	"outer	intuition"	(or	where	context	permits, simply	"intuition")	to	indicate, unless	otherwise	noted, the	perception	(i.e. the	English	term	for	cognitive	sensory	consciousness)	of	an	existence	distinct	from	the	subject. "Inner"	intuition, in	contrast, is the	awareness	of the subject's existence, and	a	particular	mode thereof (e.g. feeling warm, hungry, etc.). Both	are	forms	of experience in	the	English	sense	of	the	term- viz. a	cognitive	mental	state	or	event	with	a	particular	phenomenology	based	on	one of	the	five	senses. But, as	noted	above, neither	inner	nor	outer	intuition	is	sufficient	for experience	[Erfahrung]	in	Kant's	sense	of	the	term. Kant's	notion	of	an	experience	requires	conceptual	and	apperceptive	capacities	which	engender	an	awareness	of	lawful relations	between	consciously	perceived	objects, properties, states, or	events. The	question	to	which	we	now	turn	concerns	the	conditions	under	which	a	mental state type that	Kant	designates	as	"intuition" [Anschauung] requires	or	otherwise presupposes	mental	acts	of	synthesis	(or	at	least	the	capacity	for	such	acts)	by	the	understanding. 3 Kantian	Non-Conceptualism At	the	heart	of	non-conceptualist	readings	of	Kant	stands	the	denial	that	mental	acts	of synthesis	carried	out	by	the	understanding	are	necessary	for	the	occurrence	of	cognitive mental	states	of	the	type	which	Kant	designates	by	the	term	"intuition"	[Anschauung]. 16 Thanks	to	Sam	Rickless	for	encouraging	clarity	on	this	point. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 7 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear Though it is controversial as to	what	might	be	considered the "natural"	or "default" reading	of	Kant's	mature	critical	philosophy, there	are	at	least	four	considerations	which lend	strong	support	to	a	non-conceptualist	interpretation	of	Kant's	mature	work. First, as	several	scholars	have	noted, Kant repeatedly	and forcefully	states that in our	cognition	there	is	a	strict	division	of	cognitive	labor	-	objects	are	given	by	sensibility	and	thought	via	the	understanding.17 As	Robert	Hanna	has	argued, when	Kant discusses	the	dependence	of	intuition	on	conceptual	judgment	in	the	Analytic	of	Concepts, he	is	specifically	talking	about cognition rather	than	what	we	would	consider	to be	perceptual	experience.18 Second, Kant	characterizes	the	representational	capacities	characteristic	of	sensibility	as	more	primitive than those	characteristic	of the	understanding (or reason), and as	plausibly	part	of	what	humans share	with the rest	of the	animal	kingdom.19 For example, Robert	Hanna	construes	Kant's	distinction	between	the	faculties	of	sensibility and	understanding	as	capturing	the	difference	between	the	"sub-rational"	powers	of	the mind	that	we	share	with	non-human	animals, and	the	"rational	or	higher-level	cognitive powers"	that	are	special	to	human	beings.20 If	one	were	to	deny	that, according	to	Kant, sensibility	alone	is	capable	of	producing mental	states	that	were	cognitive	in	character	then	it	would	seem	that	any	animal	which lacks	a	faculty	of	understanding, and	thus	the	capacity	for	conceptual	synthesis, would thereby lack	any	capacity for	genuinely perceptual experience. The	mental lives	of non-rational	animals	would	thus, at	best, consist	of	non-cognitive	sensory	states	which causally	correlate	with	changes	in	the	animal's	environment. Aside	from	what	we	would now	consider	to	be	an	unappealing	and	implausible	characterization	of	the	cognitive capacities	of	animals, this	reading	also	faces	textual	hurdles. Kant	is	on	record	in	various places	as	saying	that	animals	have	sensory	representations	of	their	environment	(CPJ 5:464; LM 28:449; cf. An	7:212), that	they	have	intuitions	(LL 24:702), and	that	they are	acquainted	with	objects	though	they	do	not	cognize	them	(JL 9:64–5).21 If	Kant's	position	is	that	synthetic	acts	carried	out	by	the	understanding	are	necessary for the cognitive standing	of a	mental state, then	Kant is contradicting fundamental 17 Hanna	(2005); Allais	(2009); McLear	(2011); Hanna	(2011a); Tolley	(2013); McLear	(Forthcoming	a), McLear	(Forthcoming	b). 18 See	the	discussion	of	Kant's	"togetherness	principle"	and	it's	significance	for	setting	the	conditions	on objectively	valid	judgment	in Hanna	(2005), 265-7. 19 Kant connects the possession of a faculty of sensibility to animal nature in various places, e.g. A546/B574, A802/B830; An	7:196. 20 Hanna	(2005), 249; cf. Allais	(2009); McLear	(2011), McLear	(Forthcoming	a), §3. 21 For	further	discussion	see Naragon	(1990); Allais	(2009); McLear	(2011). For	some	defense	of	the	conceptualist	position	see McDowell	(1996), chs. 3	&	6; Ginsborg	(2006b), Ginsborg	(2006a); Ginsborg (2008); Gomes	(2014). July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 8 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear elements	of	his	own	position	in	crediting	intuitions	(or	their	possibility)	to	non-rational animals. Third, any	position	which	regards	perceptual	experience	as	dependent	upon	acts	of synthesis	carried	out	by	the	understanding	must	also	construe	the	"pure"	intuitions	of space	and	time	as	dependent	upon	acts	of	synthesis.22 However, Kant's	discussion	of space	(and	analogously, time)	in	the	third	and	fourth	arguments	(fourth	and	fifth	in	the case	of	time)	of	the	Metaphysical	Exposition	of	Space	in	the	Transcendental	Aesthetic seems	incompatible	with	such	a	proposed	relation	of	dependence. Kant's	point	in	the	third	and	fourth	arguments	of	the	Metaphysical	Exposition	of	space (and	similarly	of	time)	is	that	no	finite	intellect	could	grasp	the	extent	and	nature	of	space as	an	infinite	whole	via	a	synthetic	process	moving	from	part	to	whole. If	the	unity	of the	forms	of	intuition	were	also	something	dependent	upon	intellectual	activity, then this	unity	would	necessarily	involve	the	discursive	(though	not	necessarily	conceptual) running	through	and	gathering	together	of	a	given	multiplicity	(presumably	of	different locations	or	moments)	into	a	combined	whole, which	Kant	believes	is	characteristic	of synthesis	generally	(A99). But	Kant's	arguments	in	the	Metaphysical	Expositions	of	space	and	time	require	that the	fundamental	basis	of	our	representation	of	space	and	time	does	not	proceed	from	a grasp	of	the	multiplicity	of	features	of	an	intuited	particular	to	the	whole	that	has	those features. Instead	the	form	of	pure	intuition	constitutes	a	representational	whole	that	is prior to	that	of	its	component	parts	(cf. CJ 5:407-8, 409).23 Hence, Kant's	position	is	that	the	pure	intuitions	of	space	and	time	possess	a	unity wholly	different	from	that	given	by	the	discursive	unity	of	the	understanding	(whether it	be	in	conceptual	judgment	or	the	intellectual cum imaginative	synthesis	of	intuited objects	more	generally). The	unity	of	aesthetic	representation-characterized	by	the forms	of	space	and	time-has	a	structure	in	which	the	representational	parts	depend on	the	whole. The	unity	of	discursive	representation-representation	where	the	activity of	the	understanding	is	involved-has	a	structure	in	which	the	representational	whole depends	on	its	parts.24 Finally, there	has	been	extensive	discussion	of the	non-conceptuality	of intuition in	the	secondary	literature	on	Kant's	philosophy	of	mathematics. For	example, Michael Friedman	has	argued	that	the	expressive	limitations	of	the	prevailing	logic	in	Kant's	time required	the	postulation	of	intuition	as	a	form	of	singular, non-conceptual	representa22 This	position	is	forcefully	articulated	in Longuenesse	(1998), ch. 8; see	also Griffith	(2012); Friedman (2012). 23 Kant's	argument	here	is	directed	very	much	against	the	Leibnizian	view	that	all	representation	is	purely conceptual. For	further	discussion	see Adams	(1994), ch. 9; Janiak	(2012). 24 For	much	more	extensive	discussion	of	this	issue	see McLear	(Forthcoming	a); cf. Messina	(2014); Onof and	Schulting	(Forthcoming). July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 9 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear tion.25 Charles	Parsons	and	Emily	Carson	have	argued	that	space	must	be	given	in	a phenomenological	manner	as	an	original, non-conceptual	representation	in	order	that we	be	able	to	demonstrate	the	real	possibility	of	constructed	mathematical	objects	as required	for	geometric	knowledge.26 Ultimately, however, there	are	difficulties	in	assessing	whether	Kant's	philosophy	of	mathematics	can	have	relevance	for	the	conceptualism	debate, since	the	sense	in	which	intuition	must	be	non-conceptual	in	accounting for	mathematical	knowledge	is	not	obviously	incompatible	with	claiming	that	intuitions themselves	(including	pure	intuition)	are	dependent	upon	a	conceptually-guided	synthesis.27 The	non-conceptualist	reading	is	thus	clearly	committed	to	allowing	that	sensibility alone	provides, in a perhaps very primitive	manner, objective representation	of the empirical	world. Sensibility	is	construed	as	an	independent	cognitive	faculty, which humans	share	with	other	non-rational	animals, and	which	is	the	jumping-off	point	for more	sophisticated	conceptual	representation	of	empirical	reality. 4 Kantian	Conceptualism In	the	introduction	I characterized	conceptualism	as	claiming	that	there	is	a	dependence relation	between	a	subject's	having	conscious	sensory	experience	of	an	objective	world, and	the	repertoire	of	concepts	possessed	by	the	subject	and	exercised	in	acts	by	her faculty	of	understanding. As	a	first	pass	at	sharpening	this	formulation, we	may	understand	conceptualism, as	it appears	in	the	scholarly	literature	on	Kant, as	a	thesis	consisting	of	two	claims: (i)	sense experience	has	correctness	conditions	determined	by	the	"content"	of	the	experience; (ii)	the	content	of	an	experience	is	a	structured	entity	whose	components	are	concepts. Let's	take	these	in	turn. 25 Friedman	(1992), ch. 2; cf. the	discussion	of	the	non-conceptual	conditions	of	judgments	of	equality in Anderson	(2005), 54-8	and	the	discussion	of	the	representation	of	homogeneous	units	in Sutherland (2008). 26 Parsons	(1964); Parsons	(1992); Carson	(1997); Carson	(1999); cf. Hanna	(2002). For	a	general	overview of	related	issues	in	Kant's	philosophy	of	mathematics	see Shabel	(2006)	and	the	works	cited	therein	at p. 107, note	29. 27 Michael	Friedman	(Friedman	(2012))	has	recently	articulated	such	a	position; cf. Longuenesse	(1998). If, as	Friedman	argues, Kant's	notion	of	the	conceptual	is	tied	to	his	logic, then, as	we	move	away	from syllogistic	logic	post-Frege, there	may	be	notions	of	the	conceptual	that	are	compatible	with	Kant's	views in	mathematics. For	discussion	see MacFarlane	(2002); Anderson	(2004), Anderson	(2005). July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 10 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear 4.1 Content	&	Correctness An	important	background	assumption	governing	the	conceptualism	debate	construes mental	states	as	related	to	the	world	cognitively	(as	opposed	to	merely	causally)	if	and only	if	they	possess	correctness	conditions. That	which	determines	the	correctness	condition	for	a	state	is	that	state's	"content". Suppose, for	example, that	an	experience	E has	the	following	content	C: C:	That	cup	is	white. This	content	determines	a	correctness	condition	V: V:	S's	experience	E is	correct	iff	the	cup	visually	presented	to	the	subject	as the	content	of	the	demonstrative	is	white	and	the	content	C corresponds to	how	things	seem	to	the	subject	to	be	visually	presented. Here	the	content	of	the	experiential	state	functions	much	like	the	content	of	a	belief state	to	determine	whether	the	experience, like	the	belief, is	or	is	not	correct. A state's	possession	of	content	thus	determines	a	correctness	condition, in	virtue	of which	we	can	construe	the	state	as	mapping, mirroring, or	otherwise	tracking	aspects of	the	subject's	environment. Perhaps	the	most	prominent	recent	interpretation	of	Kant	as	endorsing	the	content assumption	is	found	in	John	McDowell's Mind	and	World. McDowell's	project	there is	to	show, given	certain	presuppositions	concerning	the	nature	of	justification, how	it is	that	experience	can	play	a	justificatory	and	not	merely	causal	role	in	the	fixation	of belief. In	the	course	of	this	argument	McDowell	articulates	very	clearly	a	commitment to	construing	representational	content	as	the	kind	of	thing	that	is	correct	or	incorrect. He	says, The	very	idea	of	representational	content	brings	with	it	a	notion	of	correctness	and	incorrectness: something	with	a	certain	content	is	correct, in	the relevant	sense, just	in	case	things	are	as	it	represents	them	to	be. I can	see no	good	reason	not	to	call	this	correctness	"truth." But	even	if, for	some reason, we	reserve	that title	for	correctness	in	this	sense	when	it is	possessed	by	things	with	conceptual	content, it	seems	a	routine	thought	that there	can	be	rational	connections	between	the	world's	being	as	a	possessor of	one	bit	of	content	represents	it	and	the	world's	being	as	a	possessor	of another	bit	of	content	represents	it, independently	of	what	kind	of	content is	in	question.28 28 McDowell	(1996), 162. Many	of	McDowell's	interlocutors	share	similar	views. Cf. Evans	(1982), 202; Peacocke	(1992), 55, 65; Burge	(2003), 506. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 11 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear McDowell	explains	the	close	connection	between	the	idea	of	representational	content	and	that	of	correctness	in	terms	of	the	normative	character	of	any	world-directed mental	state, a	paradigmatic	instance	of	which	is	judging	that	something	is	the	case. He says, To	make	sense	of	the	idea	of	a	mental	state's	or	episode's	being	directed towards	the	world, in	the	way	in	which, say, a	belief	or	judgement	is, we need	to	put	the	state	or	episode	in	a	normative	context. A belief	or	judgement	to	the	effect	that	things	are	thus	and	so-a	belief	or	judgement	whose content	(as	we	say)	is	that	things	are	thus	and	so-must	be	a	posture	or stance	that	is	correctly	or	incorrectly	adopted	according	to	whether	or	not things	are	indeed	thus	and	so. (If	we	can	make	sense	of	judgement	or	belief as	directed	towards	the	world	in	that	way, other	kinds	of	content-bearing postures	or	stances	should	easily	fall	into	place).29 Here	McDowell	claims	that	beliefs	and	judgments	have	a	particular	way	of	disclosing the	world to a subject and that this is a	way in	which	we	might	understand	worlddirected	mental	states	more	generally. He	further	claims	that	the	way	in	which	a	mental	state is	directed	at the	world is in terms	of its	possessing	a	correctness	condition concerning	how	the	world	in	fact	is. McDowell	then	relates	his	understanding	of	such world-disclosing	or	world-directed	states	to	perceptual	experience. We	should	understand	what	Kant	calls	"intuition"-experiential	intake- not	as	a	bare	getting	of	an	extra-conceptual	Given, but	as	a	kind	of	occurrence	or	state	that	already	has	conceptual	content. In	experience	one takes	in, for	instance	sees, that	things	are	thus	and	so. That	is	the	sort	of thing	one	can	also, for	instance, judge.30 McDowell	here	utilizes	Kant's	term	"intuition"	[Anschauung]	which	McDowell	equates with	"experiential intake.''	So	he	endorses the idea that intuition	has	content (being necessary	for	our	"taking	in"	that	something	is	the	case), and	that	it	is	in	virtue	of	this content	that	the	experiential	state, together	with	the	world, is	either	correct	or	incorrect. From	this	we	can	conclude	that, according	to	McDowell, intuitions	have	representational	content, that	this	entails	that	such	content	is	assessable	for	its	correctness, and that	intuitions	with	content	are	thereby	mental	states	assessable	for	their	correctness. Hence, McDowell's	interpretation	clearly	understands	Kant	as	endorsing	a	version	of the	content	assumption. 29 McDowell	(1996), xi-xii. 30 McDowell	(1996), 9. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 12 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear Many	non-conceptualist	opponents	of	McDowell's	interpretation	nevertheless	share with	him	an	endorsement	of	the	content	assumption.31 However, they	differ	with	him in	at	least	one	of	two	ways. First, the	content	of	an	experience	which	sets	its	correctness conditions	is	attributed	to	the	experience	regardless	of	what, if	any, other	conceptual capacities	the	subject	may	have. Non-conceptual	contents	are	thus	meant	to	capture aspects	of	the	perceiving	subject's	experience	that	may	well	outrun	the	subject's	own capacities	for	articulation.32 Second, proponents of non-conceptualist readings of content	may construe nonconceptual	contents	as	correct	in	a	manner	that	is	altogether	distinct	from	conceptual contents, which	are	true	or	false	depending	on	whether	the	conditions	set	out	by	the concepts	constituting the	content	are satisfied. In	contrast, non-conceptual	content, much	like	the	content	of	a	map	or	a	recording, is	accurate	or	inaccurate. It	thus	admits of	degrees	of	approximation.33 Thus, for	many	non-conceptualists, while	it	is	still	the	case	that	a	subject's	mental states	only	count	as	representational	in	virtue	of	possessing	correctness	conditions, the nature	and	articulation	of	these	correctness	conditions	may	well	differ	radically	from those	set	out	by	conceptualism. We	can	see	these	two	features	of	non-conceptualism	at	work	in	an	interpretation of	Kant	that	is, in	many	ways, directly	opposed	to	McDowell's	conceptualism. Robert Hanna	has	argued that, for	Kant, sensible intuitions	possess	wholly	non-conceptual representational	content. We	can	see	this	in	two	quotes	from	Hanna, the	first	of	which describes the	non-conceptualist position and	attributes it to	Kant, while the second articulates	in	greater	detail	the	kind	of	representational	content	Hanna	thinks	is	present in	perceptual	experience. Non-conceptualism	holds	that	non-conceptual	content	exists	and	is	representationally	significant...Non-conceptual	cognitive	content	in	the	contemporary	sense	is, for	all	philosophical	intents	and	purposes, identical	to intuitional	cognitive	content	in	Kant's	sense.34 31 Many, but	not	all. See Tolley	(2011), Tolley	(2013); McLear	(Forthcoming	b). 32 Endorsement	of	this	thesis	sometimes	goes	under	the	name	'state	non-conceptualism'	or	'relative	nonconceptualism.' See Heck	(2000); Speaks	(2005); cf. Allais	(2009); Hanna	(2005), Hanna	(2008), Hanna (2011b). 33 Cf. Burge (2003). This conception of non-conceptual content also goes under name 'content nonconceptualism'	or	'absolute	non-conceptualism.' See, again, Heck	(2000); Speaks	(2005). 34 Hanna	(2005), 248. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 13 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear essentially	non-conceptual	content	is	either	accurate	or	inaccurate, and as	I have	suggested, inherently	poised	for	use	in	the	intentional	actions	of conscious	animals.35 We	can	thus	see	that	for	Hanna, intuitional	content	is	non-conceptual	but	nevertheless representational-it	expresses	an	accuracy	condition	in	virtue	of	which	the	mental	state represents	some	portion	of the	mind-independent	world. Hanna's	position (both	on its own	and	as attributed to	Kant) regards this	nonconceptual content as essentially veridical, indexical, and	context	dependent.36 But	the	basic	presumption	which	drives Hanna's	non-conceptualism	is	the	same	as	that	of	McDowell's	conceptualism. A mental state	counts	as	a	state	of	perceptual	awareness-i.e. a	"world-directed"	state-only	in virtue	of	having	a	representational	content	which	sets	a	correctness	condition	for	the state. Hence, Hanna, like	McDowell, articulates	an	interpretation	which	endorses	the content	assumption. I take	it	that	McDowell's	and	Hanna's	views	are	representative	of	two	extremes	regarding	interpretations	of	Kant	understanding	of	the	content	of	intuition. McDowell, at least	in	the	discussion	in Mind	and	World, argues	that	intuition	is	through	and	through conceptual. That	is, McDowell	understands	the	representational	content	of	perception as	the	same	kind	of	content	as	is	found	in	beliefs	or	thoughts. So	the	content	of	an	experience	is	a	conceptually	structured, truth-evaluable	proposition.37 Hanna, in	contrast, argues	that	intuition	has	absolute non-conceptual content-it	has	a	structure	essentially different	in	nature	from	that	of	conceptual	content.38 Hanna	and	McDowell	articulate	the	basic	shape	of	much	recent	debate	concerning 35 Hanna	(2008), 58. 36 Hanna	(2006), chs. 1-2; Hanna	(2011b); cf. Howell	(1973); Pereira	(2013)	. 37 McDowell	has	since	changed	his	view. A more	current	specification	of it	states that intuition	is	not propositional	in	structure	though	it	nevertheless	possesses	conceptual	content. See McDowell	(2008). However, since	McDowell	still	construes	the	content	of	intuition	as	intentional	and	conceptual, bringing with	it	a	normative	notion	of	correctness, I consider	even	his	more	current	statements	to	be	an	endorsement	of	the	content	assumption. Cf. McDowell	(2013), where	he	explicitly	says	that	it	is	"in	virtue	of having	content	as	they	do	that	perceptual	experiences	put	us	in	such	[i.e. cognitive]	relations	to	things" (p. 144). 38 Hanna	(2011a), 354; cf. Hanna	(2005). July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 14 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear the	interpretation	of	Kant's	views	concerning	perceptual	experience.39 So	whether	a perceptual	experiential	state	has	conceptually	structured	content	(McDowell), or	nonconceptually	structured	content	(Hanna), it	is	in	virtue	of	the	state's	aiming	at	a	way	the world	might	be, and	thus	having	a	correctness	condition, that	the	state	counts	as	a	form of	perceptual	awareness. There	are reasons for	questioning	whether	Kant	endorses the	content	assumption as	I've	articulated	it	above.40 Kant	seems	to	deny	several	claims	which	are	integral	to it. First, in	various	places	he	explicitly	denies	that	intuition, or	the	deliverances	of	the senses	more	generally, are	the	kind	of	thing	which	could	be	correct	or	incorrect	(A293– 4/B350; An	§11	7:146; cf. LL 24:83ff, 103, 720ff, 825ff). Second, Kant's	conception of	representational	content	requires	an	act	of	mental	unification	(Pr	4:304; cf. JL §17 9:101; LL 24:928), something	which	Kant	explicitly	denies is	present in	an	intuition (B129-30; cf. B176-7).41 Finally, Kant's	"modal"	condition	on	cognition, that	it	provide a	demonstration	of	what	is	really	actual	rather	than	merely	logically	possible, seems to	preclude	an	endorsement	of	the	content	assumption. However, for	the	purposes	of understanding the	conceptulism	debate, we	will	assume that	Kant	does	endorse the content	assumption. The	question	then	is	how	to	understand	the	nature	of	the	content so	understood. 4.2 Conceptual	Content In	addition to the	content	assumption, I defined	conceptualism	as	committed to the content	of	intuition	being	completely	composed	of	concepts. Against	this, Clinton	Tolley	(Tolley	(2013), Tolley	(2011))	has	argued	that	the	immediacy/mediacy	distinction between	intuition	and	concept	entails	a	difference	in	the	content	of	intuition	and	concept. 39 There	are	a	great	many	other	ways	to	articulate	the	notion	that	intuition	has	content	within	the	limits	set by	Hanna	and	McDowell. For	example, there	are	coherent	interpretations	which	deny	that	intuition	has conceptual	content, but	assert	that	it	is	the	result	of	an	imaginative	synthesis, and	hold	that	the	images which	constitute	experiential	consciousness	are	constructions	according	to	conceptual	rules. Hence, insofar	as	the	images	purport	to	be	representational	they	must	be	attributed	a	content	determined	by the	rules	of	their	construction. In	my	terms, this	amounts	to	a	variation	of	the	Content	assumption. See Longuenesse's	discussion	of	concepts	as	rules for	sensible	synthesis. Longuenesse	(1998), 50ff. See also Anderson	(2001); Land	(2011); Matherne	(Unpublished). Watkins (2008), 519-20	also	suggests an	imagistic	view, though	it	is	not	fully	articulated. Other	views	that	seem	compatible	with	such	an account	include Strawson	(1966); Strawson	(1970); Sellars	(1968); Ginsborg	(2006b); Ginsborg	(2006a). Schulting	(2012)	presents	a	recent	and	helpful	overview	of	many	of	the	relevant	issues. 40 See McLear	(Forthcoming	b)	for	more	extensive	discussion. 41 Kant	does	not, however, deny	that	intuition	has	"content"	[Inhalt]	in	some	sense	other	than	that	of	a correctness	condition. For	discussion	see Tolley	(2011), Tolley	(2013); McLear	(Forthcoming	b). July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 15 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear if	we	understand	by	"content"...a	representation's	particular	relation	to	an object...then	it is	clear that	we	should	conclude	that	Kant	accepts	nonconceptual	content. This is	because	Kant	accepts that intuitions	put	us in	a	representational relation to	objects that is	distinct in	kind from	the relation	that	pertains	to	concepts. I argued, furthermore, that	this	is	the meaning	that	Kant	himself	assigns	to	the	term	"content". (Tolley	(2013), 128) Insofar	as	Kant	often	speaks	of	the	"content"	[Inhalt]	of	a	representation	as	consisting	in a	particular	kind	of	relation	to	an	object	(Tolley	(2013), 112; cf. B83, B87)	Tolley	thus gives	us	a	kind	of	"short	argument"	for	a	non-conceptualist	reading	of	Kant: 1. The	content	of	a	cognition	(whether	intuition	or	concept)	consists	in-i.e. is	nothing	but-a	relation	to	an	object 2. Concepts	and	intuitions	relate	to	objects	in	different	ways-viz. mediately	and immediately 3. ∴ The	content	of intuition is	different from the	content	of concepts-i.e. it is non-conceptual Tolley's	argument	gives	us	good	reason	to	reject	the	idea	that	intuition	could	have, in Kant's	sense	of	the	term, a	concept	as	its	"content".42 However	it	does	not	demonstrate that	the	content	of	what	Kant	calls	an	intuition	is	not	something	that we would	construe as	conceptual, in	a	wider	sense	of that term. For	example, both	pure	and	complex demonstrative	expressions	have	conceptual	form	(e.g. that	color, this	person), but	are not, in	Kant's terms, "conceptual" since they	do	not exhibit the requisite generality which, according	to	Kant, all	conceptual	representation	must.43 4.3 Conceptualism	&	Synthesis If it isn't textually	plausible to	understand the	content	of an intuition in conceptual terms	(at	least	as	Kant	understands	the	notion	of	a	concept)	then	what	would	it	mean to	say	that	Kant	endorses	conceptualism	with	regard	to	experience? The	most	plausible interpretation, endorsed	by	a	wide	variety	of interpreters, reads	Kant	as	arguing that the	generation	of	an	intuition, whether	pure	or	sensory, depends	at	least	in	part	on	the activity	of	the	understanding. On	this	way	of	carving	things, conceptualism	does not consist	in	the	narrow	claim	that	intuitions	have	concepts	as	contents	or	components, but	rather	consists	in	the	broader	claim	that	the	occurrence	of	an	intuition	depends	at 42 For	opposing	views	see Willaschek	(1997); Griffith	(2012); Engstrom	(2006). 43 For	further	discussion	see McLear	(Forthcoming	b), §5.2; Thompson	(1972). July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 16 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear least	in	part	on	the	discursive	activity	of	the	understanding.44 The	specific	activity	of	the understanding	is	that	which	Kant	calls	"synthesis", the	"running	through, and	gathering together"	of	representations	(A99).45 What's	more, the fact that intuitions	are	generated	according to	acts	of synthesis directed	by	or	otherwise	dependent	upon	conceptual	capacities	provides	some	basis	to claim	that	whatever	correctness	conditions	might	be	had	by	intuition	must	be	in	accord with	the	conceptual	synthesis	which	generated	them. This	seems	nicely	in	line	with Kant's	much	quoted	claim, The same function that gives unity to the	different representations in a judgment also	gives	unity	to	the	mere	synthesis	of	different	representations in	an	intuition, which, expressed	generally, is	called	the	pure	concept	of understanding. (A79/B104-5) The	link	between	intuition, synthesis	in	accordance	with	concepts, and	relation	to an	object	is	made	even	clearer	by	Kant's	claim	in	§17	of	the	B-edition	Transcendental Deduction	that, Understanding is, generally	speaking, the	faculty	of cognitions. These	consist	in	the	determinate	relation	of	given	representations	to	an	object. An object, however, is	that	in	the	concept	of	which	the	manifold	of	a	given intuition	is united. (B137; emphasis	in	the	original) However	else	we	are	to	understand	this	passage, Kant	here	indicates	that	the	unity	of an	intuition	necessary	for	it	to	stand	as	a	cognition	of	an	object	requires	a	synthesis	by the	concept	<object>. In	other	words, cognition	of	an	object	requires	that	intuition	be unified	by	an	act	or	acts	of	the	understanding. According	to	the	conceptualist	interpretation	we	must	understand	the	notion	of	a representation's	content	as	a	relation	to	an	object, which	in	turn	depends	on	a	conceptually	guided	synthesis. So	we	can	revise	our	initial	definition	of	conceptualism	to	read it	as	claiming	that	(i)	the	content	of an	intuition	is	a	kind	of	relation	to	an	object; (ii) 44 McLear	(Forthcoming	a)	calls	this	broader	position	"Intellectualism", so	as	to	emphasize	the	importance of	the	understanding's	activity, rather	than	the	specific	conceptual	content	of	that	activity. 45 See Grüne	(2009), ch. 2	for	an	alternative	taxonomy. Grüne	distinguishes	"judgment-theoretic"	[Urteilstheoretik]	from	"conceptualist"	[Konzeptualist]	interpretations	on	the	basis	of	whether	the	interpretation construes	the	intuitive	representations	generated	by	sensory	synthesis	in	terms	of, or	implying, judgment (Grüne	(2009), 111-12). However, she	and	I agree	that	such	"judgment-theoretic"	views	are	not	definitive	of	a	broadly	conceptualist	interpretation, and	that	whether	one	takes	Kant	as	arguing	that	intuition depends	on	a	conceptually-guided	synthesis	remains	a	significant	difference	between	conceptualist	and non-conceptualist	interpretations	(Grüne	(2009), §2.4; cf. Grüne	(2008)). So	I take	the	discussion	here to	be	broadly	congenial	to	her	own. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 17 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear the	relation	to	an	object	depends	on	a	synthesis	directed	in	accordance	with	concepts; (iii)	synthesis	in	accordance	with	concepts	sets	correctness	conditions	for	the	intuition's representation	of	a	mind-independent	object.46 5 Objections One	of the	main	criticisms	of the	conceptualist reading	of	Kant is that it seemingly commits	him	to	the	position	that	perceptual	experience	is	constrained	by	the	subject's repertoire	of	concepts. However, Hannah	Ginsborg	has	argued	that	Kant's	conceptualism	need	not	be	construed	in	such	a	way.47 Instead, there	is	room	for	a	less	demanding	conception	of	what	it	is	for	understanding	to	be	involved	in	perceptual	synthesis, a	conception	which	does	not require	that	any	concepts	be	grasped	antecedently	to	engaging	in	synthesis. On	this	conception, to	say that	synthesis involves	understanding is simply to	say that it involves	a	consciousness	of	normativity...I want to claim	that	this	consciousness	of	normativity	is	possible	without	the	subject's	first	having	grasped	any	concept	governing	her	synthesis, and, more specifically, without	her	synthesis	needing	to	be	guided	by	any	concept. (Ginsborg	(2008), 71) According	to	Ginsborg, we	need	not	read	the	conceptualist	as	making	the	strong	claim that perceptual experience is constrained by conceptual repertoire that the subject brings	with	them	to	experience. Instead, we	need	merely	see	the	issue	of	conceptualization	as	one	in	which	the	subject	combines	an	association	of	some	bundle	of	sense impressions	with	the	sense	that	she	is	associating	them	as	she	ought, and	it	is	this	consciousness	of	the	normativity	of	one's	combination	that	is	responsible	"for	the	objectdirected	character	of	our	perceptions" (Ginsborg (2008), 74). Hence, if	Ginsborg is correct, one	of	the	main	sources	for	objecting	to	conceptualist	readings	of	Kant-viz. their	supposed	denial	that	non-rational	animals	enjoy	perceptual	experiences-would be	removed.48 46 One	might	worry	here	about	the	object	of	perceptual	hallucination. I set	this	issue	largely	to	one	side, though	it	is	compatible	with	the	account	given	above	that	the	"objects"	to	which	one	is	immediately	related	in	perception	are	always	"intentional"	objects. See Aquila	(1983); Pereboom	(1988); Longuenesse (1998), 20-6; Aquila	(2003), Aquila	(2008); Grüne	(2009), 42. 47 For	alternative	construals	of	the	conceptuality	of	experience	that	also	see	themselves	as	compatible	with the	claim	that	experience	is	primitive	see Gomes	(2014); Gomes	(Manuscript); Land	(2011). 48 Ginsborg's	position	has	been	criticized	by	scholars	on	either	side	of the	conceptualism	debate. See Grüne	(2008); Allais	(2009), 401. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 18 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear Perhaps	the	most	obvious	objection	to	the	non-conceptualist	reading	of	Kant	stems from	his	famous	statement	that, Intuition	[Anschauung]	and	concepts	[Begriffe]	therefore	constitute	the	elements	of	all	our	cognition	[Erkenntnis]...Thoughts	without	content	[Inhalt] are	empty, intuitions	without	concepts	are	blind. . . . The	understanding	is	not	capable	of	intuiting	anything, and	the	senses	are	not	capable	of thinking	anything. Only	from	their	unification	can	cognition	arise. (A50– 51/B74–75; my	emphasis) The	so-called	"blindness"	problem	raises	two	issues. First, that	intuitions	without	concepts	or	conceptual	synthesis	are	not	intentional	states, and	so	cannot	provide	the	mind with	relation	to	an	object.49 Second, that	we	cannot	even	identify	the	cognitive	contribution	made	by	sensory	experience	independent	of	its	conceptualization.50 Against	the	first	point	it	has	been	argued	that	if	Kant's	concern	is	with	the	mechanism(s)	that	undergirds	intentional	states, and	he	thinks	that	possession	of	a	faculty	of understanding	is	a	necessary	condition	for	being	in	intentional	states, then	he	would be	simply	confused	in	attributing	the	possibility	of	intentional	states	to	non-rational	animals.51 It	has	also	been	pointed	out	that, to	the	extent	that	Kant	problematizes	the	issue of	intentional	relations, it	is	at	best	intentional	relations	to	external	mind-independent objects that	are in	question, and	not intentional relations (such	as those involved in thinking	of	one's	own	mental	states) überhaupt.52 Against	the	second	point, Lucy	Allais	(Allais	(2009))	has	forcefully	argued	that	if	we take	Kant's	definition	of	intuition	(and	likewise	of	concepts)	seriously, then	we must be able	to	identify	an	independent	contribution	of	sensibility	to	cognition-viz. singular and	immediate	representation	of	an	object-lest	we	fail	to	make	sense	of	Kant's	division	between	intuition	and	concept.53 It	would	also	be	extremely	odd	of	Kant	to	deny the	possibility	of	articulating	the	distinct	contribution	made	by	sensibility	given	that	he goes	so	far	as	to	organize	the	structure	of	argument	in	the	first Critique around	the	distinction	between	those	contributions	made	by	sensibility	(the	Transcendental	Aesthetic) and	those	made	by	the	understanding	(the	Transcendental	Logic, and	in	particular, the 49 For	a	clear	statement	of	the	view	that	conceptual	synthesis	is	the	mechanism	by	which	sensory	states first	achieve	the	status	of	intentional	states	see George	(1981); Pereboom	(1988); cf. Van Cleve	(1999), 95-7. 50 Falkenstein	(1995); McDowell	(1996). McDowell	famously	claims	that	sensibility	cannot	be	even	"notionally	seperated"	from	contributions	made	by	the	understanding	(McDowell (1996), 51). Cf.

July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 19 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear Analytic).54 The	claim	of	"blindness", it	is	argued, should	not	be	interpreted	as	so	extreme	as	to	render	unintelligible	fundamental	aspects	of	Kant's	architectonic, or	of	his repeated	statements	concerning	the	individual	cognitive	roles	of	the	faculties	of	sensibility	and	understanding. Finally, at	best, the	blindness	problem	seems	to	concern	the difficulties	involved	in	articulating	the	nature	of	sensory	content	without	drawing	on concepts	in	the	process	of	providing	the	articulation.55 But	this	can	be	conceded	without	thereby	admitting	that	there	is	no	sensory	content	(or	positive	cognitive	contribution) independent	of	conceptual	articulation. A significant	further	source	of	criticism	of	the	non-conceptualist	reading	is	that	it	at best	renders	ineffectual	Kant's	apparent	strategy	for	demonstrating	the	legitimacy	of	the categories	in	the	argument	of	the	Transcendental	Deduction, and	at	worst	shows	Kant to	be	totally	confused	in	his	argumentative	strategy.56 A key text for this reading	comes in the	conclusion to the second	or	"B-edition" version	of	the	argument	of	the	Transcendental	Deduction. [E]verything	that	may	ever	come	before	our	senses	must	stand	under	the laws	that	arise a	priori from	the	understanding	alone	(B160)	. . . Consequently	all	synthesis, though	which	even	perception	itself	becomes	possible, stands	under	the	categories, and	since	experience	is	cognition	though connected	perceptions, the	categories	are	conditions	of	the	possibility	of experience, and	are	thus	also	valid a	priori of	all	objects	of	experience. (B161) What this	passage	and	its	context	suggest is that the	culmination	of	Kant's	argument demonstrating	the	legitimacy	of	the	a	priori	concepts	he	calls	the	"categories"	requires showing	that	all	perception	depends	on	a	synthesis	via	the	categories. Here, however, it is	important	to	note	that	Kant	is	using	"perception"	[Wahrnehmung]	in	his	own	technical sense, as	discussed	in	§2	above, rather	than	our	contemporary	English	sense. So	he argues	here	that	the	categories	are	necessary	for	consciousness	of	the	complex	content of	an	intuition. But	it isn't	clear	that	this	is	equivalent	to	being	necessary	for	having an	intuition, and	thus	for	having	a	sensory	experience	in	the	contemporary	sense	with which	we've	been	concerned. A further, and	much	discussed, text in the	B-edition	Transcendental	Deduction is also	often	taken	as	supporting	a	conceptualist	interpretation. There	Kant	says, Space, presented	as	object	(as	we	are	actually	required	to	represent	it	in	geometry), contains	more	than	[the]	mere	form	of	intuition-viz. it	contains 54 Bird	(2006), 127 55 Bird	(2006), 129-30. 56 Cf. Ginsborg	(2008), 68-9; Griffith	(2012). For	criticism	see Allais	(2009); Tolley	(2013); McLear	(Forthcoming	a). July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 20 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear also	the	gathering-together	[Zusammenfassung]	of	the	manifold	given	according	to	the	form	of	sensibility, in	an	intuitive	representation-so	that the	form	of	intuition	gives	us	merely	a	manifold, but	formal	intuition	gives us	unity	of	representation. In	the	Transcendental	Aesthetic	I had	merely	included	this	unity	with	sensibility, wanting	only	to	point	out	that	it	precedes any	concept. But	this	unity	indeed	presupposes	a	synthesis	which	does	not belong	to	the	senses, through	which	all	concepts	of	space	and	time	first become	possible. For	through	this	unity	(inasmuch	as	understanding	determines	sensibility)	space	or	time	are	first	given	as	intuitions, and	hence the	unity	of	this	intuition	belongs a	priori to	space	and	time, and	not	to	the concept	of	understanding	(see	§24)	(B160-1, note). Here the	conceptualist takes	Kant to "complete" the	argument	of the	Deduction	by arguing that even the existence	of space and time as	pure intuitions depends	on a synthesis	by	the	categories.57 The	conceptualist	idea	here	is	that, by	making	space	and time	themselves	depend	on	a	categorial	synthesis, Kant	assures	his	desired	conclusion- viz. that	all	possible	empirical	intuition	must	depend	on	the	categories, and	thus	that	all possible	objects	of	empirical	intuition	must	fall	under	the	categories. The	conceptualist thus takes this	as	proof that	a	non-conceptualist	approach to	reading the	Deduction must	make	the	argument	there	hopeless	and	Kant's	strategy	deeply	confused.58 One thing to note about the footnote passage is that, in the	first sentence, Kant explicitly	invokes	the	notion	of	space	as	an	object	of	geometry. But	it	isn't	obvious	that Kant	identifies	the	conditions	under	which	a	subject	may	represent	space	geometrically with	the	conditions	for	representing	space simpliciter. In	fact, Kant's	distinction	in	the footnote	between	the	forms	of	intuition	and	formal	intuition	suggests	that	he	denies	any such	identification. So	Kant	can	consistently	hold	that	the	unity	of	the	representation of	the	pure	forms	of	intuition-space	and	time-is	independent	of	any	synthesis, while acknowledging, as	he	does	in	the	last	sentence	of	the	note, that	the	representation	of these	entities	as	objects, as	we	do	in the formal intuitions	required	for	mathematics, requires	a	pre-conceptual	synthesis	carried	out	by	the	imagination.59 57 The	source	of	this	interpretation	seems	to	be	Hegel. See Hegel	(1977), 69-72. For	relevant	discussion see Pippin	(1989), 29-31; Waxman	(1991), 79ff; Longuenesse	(1998), ch. 8; Keller	(1998), 107-12, 254; McDowell	(2003), McDowell	(2007); McLear	(Forthcoming	a); Messina	(2014). 58 Longuenesse	(1998); Wenzel	(2005); Gomes	(2010); Land	(2011); Griffith	(2012); Gomes	(2014). Not all	non-conceptualists	take	up	this	challenge. Hanna	(2011b)	simply	accepts	this	as	a	consequence	of Kant's	non-conceptualist	position, and	construes	Kant	as	deeply	divided	in	his	own	views	on	the	matter. For	objections	to	Hanna's	position	see Grüne	(2011); Schulting	(2012). For	an	extensive	discussion	of	the B160-1	footnote	and	defense	of	a	non-conceptulist	reading	of	it	see Onof	and	Schulting	(Forthcoming). 59 Cf. the	discussion	in McLear	(Forthcoming	a), §2.1. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 21 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear We've	also	seen	one	non-conceptulist	argument, above, that	Kant's	argumentative strategy	in	the	Deduction	cannot	depend	on	making	the	unity	of	intuition	itself	dependent	on	synthesis	because	it	jeopardizes	his	arguments	in	the	Transcendental	Aesthetic. Such	an	interpretation	would	also	directly	contradict	Kant's	characterization	of	the	finite nature	of	human	intellectual	activity	(CJ 5:407; cf. B72; CJ 5:251-2, 253-4).60 Other non-conceptual	replies	to	this	conceptualist	reading	include	denying	that	the	synthesis	required	for	the	unity	of	perceptual	intuition	is	itself	conceptual,61 and	distinguishing	between the having of	an intuition, and the representation	of the	content	of an intuition-where	the	latter	is	understood	as	a	determinate	representational	relation	to some	object.62 Finally, and	perhaps	most	centrally	for	some	conceptualist	readings	(most	notably Sellars's	and	McDowell's), the	role	of	concepts	in	the	generation	of	perceptual	experience	is	supposed	to	help	explain	how	perception	can	play	a	justificatory	rather	than merely	a	causal role in the	fixation	of	belief. Non-conceptualism, so the	objection goes, cannot	account	for	the	justificatory	role	of	perceptual	experience	in	the	fixation of	empirical	belief. Versions	of	this	objection	have	often, since	Wilfred	Sellars's	famous paper, gone	under	the	moniker	of	the	"Myth	of	the	Given".63 While	it	is	not	entirely obvious	how	Kant's	texts	or	arguments	yield	any	substantive	connection	with	the	concerns	articulated	by	Sellars, I shall	suggest	below	three	possible	ways	in	which	such	a connection	might	be	understood. The	exact	nature	of	objections	to	the	supposedly	mythical	"Given"	vary.64 One	objection, made	by	Sellars, is	that	justifiers	for	belief	must	have	a	certain	kind	of	structure- viz. a	fact-like	structure	that	mirrors	the	propositional	structure	of	belief. In	contrast, sensory	experiences	(construed	as	sensations)	are	particulars	rather	than	facts, and	so cannot	play	any	justificatory	role.65 This	"premise	principle", as	it	has	been	called	in contemporary	epistemology, thus	plays	a	significant	role	in	motivating	the	rejection	of experience, insofar	as	it lacks	representational	content, as	a	potential	justifier	for	be60 For	further	discussion	of	this	point	see McLear	(Forthcoming	a). 61 Rohs	(2001), 220-1; Allais	(2009), 395-6, 406-7; cf. Tolley	(2013). Willaschek	(1997)	argues	that	intuition causally relates	to	its	object	independent	of	concepts, but	only	has	intentional content given	a conceptual	syntheis. Hanna	takes	another	tack	and	argues	that	sensibility	has	its	own	form	of	spontaneous	synthesis	distinct	from	the	understanding's	(cf. Hanna	(2008), 62). 62 Tolley	(2013), 122-24. 63 Sellars	(1956), reprinted	in Sellars	(1963); cf. McDowell	(1996); McDowell	(1998a), McDowell	(1998b), McDowell	(1998c); Abela	(2002) 64 Cf.

July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 22 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear lief.66 For	example, John	McDowell	argues	that The	idea	of	the	Given	is	the	idea	that	the	space	of	reasons, the	space	of	justifications'	or	warrants, extends	more	widely	than	the	conceptual	sphere. But	we	cannot	really	understand	the	relations	in	virtue	of	which	a	judgment is	warranted	except	as	relations	within	the	space	of	concepts: relations such	as	implication	or	probabilification, which	hold	between	potential	exercises	of	conceptual	capacities67 The	passage	in	Kant	typically	adduced	in	support	of	this	point	is	the	"same	function" passage	at	(A79/B104-5)	quoted	in	§4.3	above.68 Thus, according	to	this	conceptualist reading	of	Kant, sense	experience would have	the	requisite	proposition-like	structure, and	thus	be	capable	of	standing	in	justificatory	relations	to	beliefs, since	the	same	capacities	that	structure	the	contents	of	judgment	for	Kant	(viz. the	categories)	would	also structure	sensory	experience. While	such	interpreters	are	surely	correct	that	Kant's	aim, as	exemplified	in	this	passage, is	to	show	that	the	very	same	cognitive	capacities	which connect	representations	in	a	mental	act	of	judging	are	also	in	play	in	the	connection of	representations	in	a	sensory	experience, it	is	not	obvious	how	the	passage	directly supports	any	argument	concerning	the	epistemic	significance	of	perceptual	experience to	knowledge. Endorsement	of	the	premise	principle	is	a	substantive	epistemological commitment, and	despite	what	Kant	says	in	the	A79/B104-5	passage	concerning	the unity	of	judgment	and	intuition, it	is	not	at	all	obvious	that	Kant	endorses	the	principle.69 Hence	further	work	needs	to	be	done	to	show	that	Kant	actually	endorses	or even	articulates	this	argument. A second	objection	against	the	Given, that	might	be	attributed	to	Kant, is	that	the mere	occurrence	of	a	sensory	experience	cannot	license	any	particular	belief. Instead, sensory	experience	can	only	play	its	justificatory	role	against	a	background	of	concepts possessed	by	the	experiencing	subject.70 This	connects to	Kant	at least in	the	sense that, if the	conceptualist reading is correct, there is a	particular	battery	of concepts 66 See Pryor	(2005); Siegel	and	Silins	(Forthcoming); McLear	(Forthcoming	b), §4.3	for	discussion. 67 McDowell	(1996), 7; cf. BonJour	(1985),78; Davidson	(1986), 310; Brewer	(1999), 154 68 See	e.g. Sellars	(1968), 4-5; McDowell	(2003), 79; Haag	(2007), 150-1, 199, and	ch. 8; Kalderon	(2011), 235-6. Cf. Pippin	(1982), 99-101; Heidegger	(1997), 45-6; Longuenesse	(1998), 200; Grüne	(2009), 107-11. 69 For	example, according	to	at	least	one	prominent	interpretation	of	Kant's	epistemology, Kant	endorses an	at	least	partly	"externalist"	position	concerning	epistemic	justification, and	thus	does	not	endorse	the premise	principle	in	the	manner	required	to	plausibly	attribute	to	him	this	version	of	the	"Myth	of	the Given"	argument. See Chignell	(2007b), 49-50; McLear	(Forthcoming	b), §4.3. 70 Sellars	(1963), 170; McDowell	(1998a), 435-6. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 23 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear necessary	for	any	perceptual	experience	to	play	a	role	in	justification	or	the	acquisition of	empirical	knowledge-viz. the	categories.71 Again	though, one	might	worry	about	attributing	the	above	argument	to	Kant. Certainly	Kant	thought	that	empirical	intuition	alone	was	insufficient	to	count	as	empirical knowledge	and	that	the	legitimate	application	of	the	categories	was	necessary	for	any such	knowledge. But	much	more	would	need	to	be	said	regarding	whether	or	how	intuition	might	stand	in	epistemic	relations	to	beliefs.72 There	is	no	straightforward	route from	Kant's	argument	concerning	the	role	of	the	categories	in	empirical	knowledge	to the	conclusion	that	the	epistemological	status	of	intuition	depends	on	the	categories. Indeed, there	may	be	reasons	to	think	that	Kant	would	reject	such	a	claim. For	example, Kant	seems	to	hold	that	in	intuition	we	"prove	the	possibility"	of	the subject	matter	of	our	thoughts. Kant	makes	this	point	explicitly	in	the	preface	to	the B-edition	of	the	first Critique. To cognize an	object, it is required that I be able to	prove its possibility	(whether	by	the	testimony	of	experience	from	its	actuality	or a	priori through	reason). But	I can think whatever	I like, as	long	as	I do	not	contradict	myself, i.e., as	long	as	my	concept	is	a	possible	thought, even	if	I cannot	give	any	assurance	whether	or	not	there	is	a	corresponding	object somewhere	within	the	sum	total	of	all	possibilities. But	in	order	to	ascribe objective	validity to such	a	concept (real	possibility, for the	first sort	of possibility	was	merely	logical)	something	more	is	required	(Bxxvi). Here	Kant	contrasts	merely	logically	possible	thought, in	which	one	brings	together	logically	compossible	concepts, with	the	kind	of	real	empirical	possibility	necessary	for cognition. Kant	distinguishes	between	these	two	sorts	of	possibility	in	terms	of	the	notion	of	cancellation	[Aufhebung]. The	subject	matter	of	a	thought	is logically possible	if the	thought's	constituent	concepts	may	be	combined	in	judgement	without	contradiction, and	thus	without	being	logically	cancelled	out	(A151/B190; NM 2:171–2). The subject	matter	of	a	thought	is really possible, in	contrast, if	it	can	be	shown	that	the	subject	matter	to	which	the	thought	corresponds	consists	of	properties	which	are	mutually empirically	compossible	and	not, in	Kant's	terms, "really	repugnant." Kant	often	illustrates	this	idea	with	examples	involving	physical	forces	(e.g. opposite	motions, opposing 71 McDowell	(1996); Ginsborg	(2006b), Ginsborg	(2008). It	is	not	actually	clear	that	only	the	conceptualist reading	can	accommodate this	aspect	of	Kant's	view. A non-conceptualist	may	well	agree that the categories	are	necessary	for	empirical	knowledge	while	nevertheless	denying	that	they	are	necessary	in accounting	for	the	intentionality	of	perceptual	experience. Cf. Hanna	(2001), 46-65, Hanna	(2005), 2567; Bird	(2006), 193-207; Watkins	(2008); Allais	(2009), 392-4; Watkins	(2012); Tolley	(2013); McLear (Forthcoming	a), §3; McLear	(Forthcoming	b), §5.2. 72 For discussion see Stevenson (2003); Chignell (2007a), Chignell (2007b); Watkins (2008), Watkins (2012). July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 24 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear attractive	and	repulsive	forces; cf. A264–5/B320–1). Moreover, Kant	considered	a	further	kind	of	repugnance, wherein	the	subject	itself	is	"cancelled	out". In	other	words, it would	be	impossible	for	any	being	to	exist	that	would	instantiate	such	repugnant	properties.73 In	order	for	knowledge	to	be	possible, the	demonstration	of	the	real	possibility of	the	object	of	knowledge	must	be	secured. If	this	is	correct	then	there	seems	to	be	at least	a prima	facie tension	between	attributing	to	Kant	both	the	claim	that	possession of	some	battery	of	concepts	is	necessary	for	intuition	to	have	epistemic	standing, and the	claim	that it is	via intuition	that	one's	concepts (or the	judgments	constituted	by them)	first	attain	epistemic	legitimacy. How	could	a	concept	confer	epistemic	standing to	intuition	prior	to	that	concept's	being	shown	to	be	legitimate? They	may	well	be	a Kantian	basis	for	answering	this	question, but	more	needs	to	be	said	by	the	conceptualist	to	defend	the	supposed	Kantian	provenance	of	this	second	version	of	the	"Myth	of the	Given"	argument.74 Finally, both	Sellars	and	McDowell	claim	that it is	simply	a	mistake	to think	that mental	states	which	are	purely	the	upshot	of	causal	interactions	with	the	world	could themselves	stand	as	reasons	for	empirical	belief. Sellars	remarks	that	such	a	mistake	is "of	a	piece	with	the	so-called	'naturalistic	fallacy'	in	ethics"	(Sellars	(1963), 146). Sellars himself	gives	no	clear	argument	for	this	claim.75 McDowell	focuses	on	the	distinction between	the	kinds	of	mental	states, the	occurrence	of	which	we	are	responsible	for, such as	judgment, and	those	which	simply happen to	us, in	the	way	that, e.g. a	fit	of	sneezing might	happen	to	one.76 Once	again, we	can	see	the	suggested	parallel	in	a	conceptualist	reading	of	Kant. If	conceptual	capacities, such	as	the	categories, are	necessary	for the	occurrence	of	perceptual	experience	then	experience	is	not	merely	something	that causally happens to	the	subject, but	rather	is	something	that	the	subject	herself	partially accounts	for, in	much	the	same	way	that	she	accounts	for	her	endorsement	of	the	content	of	propositional	judgment. It	is	not	clear	that	this	argument	is	construed	as	anything more	than	Kantian	in	spirit. Certainly	though, there	does	seem	to	be	a	deeply	Kantian point	behind	the	notion	that	reasoning	is thinking	for	oneself, and	that	this	requires	that the	structure	of	one's	thoughts	be, in	some	sense, determined	by	oneself.77 73 For	discussion	see Chignell	(2011), 144–5; Chignell	(2014); McLear	(Forthcoming	b), §§4.3	and	5.2. 74 A further possibility is that	Kant's views are genuinely divided	here, and that subsequent	moves in German	idealism	reflect	this	fact. See Pippin	(1989), ch. 2	and	the	sources	cited	in	note 57 above. 75 Watkins	(2008); Watkins	(2012). 76 McDowell	(1996), ch. 1-2; McDowell	(1998a), 433-4; McDowell	(2003), 80-5; cf. Engstrom	(2006), 8-13. 77 This	suggests	that	Kant's	views	of	practical	and	theoretical	reason	have	a	broader	unity. For	one	classic statement	of	such	an	interpretation	see O'Neill	(1989), ch. 1; cf. Stevenson	(2004); McDowell	(2009), chs. 4, 5, and	7. July	21, 2014-Forthcoming	in Philosophy	Compass 25 The	Kantian	(Non)-Conceptualism	Debate Colin	McLear [O]ne	cannot	possibly	think	of	a	reason	that	would	consciously	receive direction	from	any	other	quarter	with	respect	to	its	judgments; since	the subject	would	then	attribute	the	determination	of	his	judgment, not	to	his reason	but	to	an	impulse. Reason	must	regard	itself	as	the	author	of	its principles	independently	of	alien	influences. (G 4:448) Whether	or	not	Kant	himself	intended	his	arguments	concerning	the	role	of	concepts in	experience	to	be	taken	in	the	ways	that	Sellars, McDowell, and	others	have	suggested, it	is	clear	that	he	has	been	a	central	source	of	inspiration	for	these	positions. Needless to	say, the	dispute	as	to	Kant's	exact	position	regarding	these	matters	continues.78 Summary To say that	Kant is a	conceptualist is, as	we	have seen, to say that	he thinks (i) the content	of	an	intuition	(i.e. an	"experience"	in	our	contemporary	sense)	is	a	kind	of	representational	relation	to	an	object; (ii)	such	relation	to	an	object	depends	on	a	synthesis directed	in	accordance	with	concepts; (iii)	synthesis	in	accordance	with	concepts	sets correctness	conditions	for	the	intuition's	representation	of	a	mind-independent	object. The	conceptualist	reading	promises	to	make	sense	of	Kant's	argument	in	the	Transcendental	Deduction	by	showing	how	perceptual	experience	depends	on	a	synthesis	by the	categories. Assuming	that	we	have	such	experience, if the	categories	are	necessary	for	perceptual	experience, then	they	have	legitimate	application	to	the	objects	of experience. In	this	manner	conceptualism	purports	to	have	an	interpretive	advantage over	non-conceptualist	readings. Conceptualists	further	claim	that	their	reading	best explains	how	perceptual	experience	could	play	a justificatory role in the	fixation	of belief. However, we	have	also	seen	several	apparent	problems	for	the	conceptualist	reading. First, though	much	of	what the	conceptualist says	may	be true	of	Kant's	views concerning	"cognition"	[Erkenntnis]	(or	"experience"	[Erfahrung]	as	he	often	uses	the term)	it is	less	clear	that	it is	true	of	perceptual	experience	or	intuition. Second, the conceptualist	must	be	able	to	account	for	the	more	primitive	role	that	perception	seems to	play	in	Kant's	cognitive	theory, as	well	as	the	seeming	fact	that	he	acknowledges	that perceptual	experience	is	something	we	share	with	non-rational	animals. Third, conceptualist	readings	seem	to	threaten	the	coherence	of	the	arguments	of	the	Transcendental Aesthetic, and	thus	the	coherence	of	Kant's	broader	critical	position. Fourth, Kant's	own philosophy	of	mathematics	may	require	that	intuition	be	understood	as	a	form	of	nonconceptual	representation. Finally, it	is	not	at	all	clear	that, for	Kant, intuitions	have 78 Hanna	(2011a)	disputes	the	idea	that	Kant	is	centrally	concerned	with	denying	the	role	of	the	Given	in the	way	suggested	by	Sellars	and	McDowell.

This	is	a	basic	assumption	of	the	conceptualist	position	and	is presupposed	by	its	other	commitments. Going	forward, conceptualism	needs	to	clarify	how	its	reading	is	compatible	with Kant's	arguments in the	Transcendental	Aesthetic, as	well	as	his	views	regarding	the cognitive	capacities	of	non-rational	animals. It	also	needs	to	do	more	to	motivate	confidence	in	the	genuinely	Kantian	provenance	of	the	family	of	arguments	that	go	under the	moniker	of	criticisms	of	the	"Myth	of	the	Given." Similarly, the	non-conceptualist reading	would	be	greatly	helped	by	a	more	extensive	account	of	the	compatibility	of non-conceptualism	with	the	argument	of	the	Transcendental	Deduction. Both	sides	of the	debate	need	also to	account for	objections to the	content	assumption. Much	of the	furor	over	Kant's	endorsement	or	denial	of	conceptualism	has	tracked	contemporary	issues	in	the	philosophy	of	perception. But	whatever	the	fortunes	of	conceptualism and	non-conceptualism	as	contemporary	philosophical	doctrines, our	understanding	of Kant's	philosophy, and	in	particular	his	theory	of	cognition, has	been	greatly	extended by	the	debate.79 References Abela, Paul	(2002).

ASSISTANT
I can assist you by organizing and processing sections of this text using System 1 and System 2 thinking frameworks. Here is how I would approach handling the text snippet focused within the conceptualism vs. non-conceptualism debate involving Kantian theory:

[sys1]
The central debate is whether Kant's view on sensory experience supports conceptualism or non-conceptualism.
Conceptualism suggests sensory experience depends on the concepts possessed and exercised by the subject.
Non-conceptualism argues against the necessity of conceptual synthesis for sensory experiences.
[end sys1]

[sys2]
**2.1 Understand the Problem:**
The debate hinges on if sensory experience relies on conceptual structures or can be independent, affecting Kant's philosophy of perception and cognition.

*Reflection:* 
"What are the core elements of Kant's theory that relate to how sensory data becomes interpreted as experience? Are there nuances in his writings that suggest differing interpretations?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could Kant have implied a hybrid approach that supports both direct intuitions and conceptual categorizations, or perhaps a developmental process where intuition precedes but informs conceptual understanding?"

**2.2 Analyze the Information:**
Kant's theory positions sensibility, concepts, and categories as multi-faceted contributors to cognition, with the interplay between intuition and understanding as contentious.

*Reflection:* 
"Am I combining all necessary textual evidence about Kant's categorial synthesis role succinctly? Is there evidence suggesting a distinct separation of intuition devoid of concepts?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Are there lesser-discussed texts or ancillary notes of Kant's that explicitly delineate intuition's autonomy or dependency on conceptual frameworks?"

**2.3 Generate Hypotheses:**
1. Kant posits that intuitions are inherently non-conceptual (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.4).
2. Kant's concepts cannot be applied without some level of intuitive sensing (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.5).
3. Sensory experience forms a baseline upon which conceptual synthesis builds (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6).
4. Kant's writings are an allegory balancing between philosophical idealism and empirical reality (Confidence: 0.5, Creative: 0.7).
5. Conceptualism is a misinterpretation by modern commentators (Confidence: 0.4, Creative: 0.7).
6. Animal perception denotes Kant's allowance for non-conceptual intuition (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.6).
7. Kant's non-conceptualism is spurred by empirical limits of sensory judgment (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.5).
8. Hybrid view: Kant sees intuition as a precursor to concept-laden cognition (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.6).
9. Non-conceptualism is a reactionary interpretation based on modernist revisions (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.7).
10. Kant construed conceptualism contextually based on his epistemological aims (Confidence: 0.5, Creative: 0.8).

*Reflection:* 
"Are there unexplored interpretations of these themes or less conventional understandings worth delving into deeper?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"What if Kant's work intended to imply a dynamic interchange rather than a static doctrine on conceptualism vs. non-conceptualism?"

**2.4 Anticipate Future Steps and Obstacles:**
Identify potential critiques such as over-reliance on modern epistemological frameworks or misapplying Kantian terms.

*Reflection:* 
"What could be pitfalls when aligning Kant's recondite terminology to contemporary cognitive science or philosophy?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Visualizing Kant's impact if interpreted correctly and its potential to alter how conceptual frameworks are understood across digital cognition models."

[end sys2]

[sys1]
Kant's assertions regarding sensory perception and concepts continue to fuel scholarly examinations.
Understanding whether he leans toward conceptualism impacts how modern epistemology classifies human and non-human cognition.
[end sys1]

This combination allows the quick presentation of key aspects of the debate through System 1 and detailed exploration through System 2.

Do a realistic, plausible country factbook for an alternate history scenario 
completely set in the world of the alternate history scenario with no references to it being an alternate history scenario at all, along with no references to OTL or real life at all, where Japan is [Japan] still [Japan] under [what Japan is still under] under the military feudal hereditary dictatoral rule of the side branch of the main branch of the post-660 BC current Japanese reigning imperial family, the supposedly Shinto pantheon-descended, Manchurian/Manchu/Jurchen and Japanese royal and priestly family of the Japanese Imperial House of Great Yamato/the Minamoto dynasty that was also both a Japanese samurai and noble clan of the Tokugawa clan-ruled, post-1603, pre-1868 de jure absolute Imperial royal parliamentary dynastic monarchy but de jure feudal royal hereditary military dictatorship of the Tokugawa bakufu [tent government |bakufu|], [the bakufu] popularly [the bakufu] known as [the bakufu’s more popular name] the shogunate, [the bakufu] a system of government in

[military families |buke|], [the buke] better known [the buke] outside of Japan and East Asia as [the buke’s other, more famous name] the samurai, the powerful Japanese magnates, and feudal lords who, from the 10th century to the early Meiji period in the middle 19th century ruled most of Japan from their vast, hereditary land holdings despite being subordinate to the shogun/sei-i taishōgun and

1185 and the subsequent dissolution of the Tokugawa bakufu as the government of Japan and the subsequent establishment of the Great Japanese Empire as the post-Tokugawa bakufu government of both the Japanese Home Islands and Okinawa and [the Meiji Restoration] subsequently lead to the rise of Japan as a political, military, economic and industrial superpower, not just in East Asia but the world [the Meiji Restoration in this timeline] does not lead to the displacement of the Tokugawa clan as sei-i taishōgun/shōguns and the samurai class due to the Japanese imperial family, the main branch of the Imperial House of Great Yamato regaining its power due to the Meiji Restoration as in OTL, but [the Meiji Restoration in this timeline] is [the Meiji Restoration in this timeline] instead [what the Meiji Restoration is in this timeline] a compromise between the conservative feudal elites that support the Tokugawa clan and the bakufu system and the liberal democrats who support the imperial family in Tokugawa bakufu-ruled feudal Japan, with the reigning heads of the Tokugawa clan maintaining their [the reigning heads of the Tokugawa clan’s] positions as sei-i taishōgun/shoguns of Japan but [the reigning heads of the Tokugawa clan as sei-i taishōgun/shoguns of Japan after 1868 in this timeline] effectively only controlling Japanese local government in this timeline and [the reigning heads of the Tokugawa clan as sei-i taishōgun/shōguns of Japan after 1868 in this timeline] also leading the Japanese military into battle, becoming something akin to the constitutional royal monarchs of Europe and a Germanic Reichskanzler combined, with the main branch of the Tokugawa clan whose clan heads reign over Japan as sei-i taishōgun/shōguns of Japan after 1868 in this timeline being split into the 5 Regent Houses of Koubuin, Ikaruga, Saionji, Kujo, and Takatsukasa from the Mabrave Unlimited and Mabrave Ortanative franchises via and after the Meiji Restoration in this timeline, in which

history remaining unchanged until 1915 and then 1928 and then continuing unchanged until 1947, and the history of Japan after the Meiji Restoration until its defeat in WW2 in 1947 remains unchanged in this timeline, with the only difference is that Japan itself is allowed to keep both its [Japan’s] imperial court and imperial shogunate system of government intact after WW2 in this timeline, which [this timeline’s version of Japan’s imperial court and this timeline’s version of Japan’s imperial shogunate system of government] coexisting alongside and being intermingled with the post-WW2 system

Japan's] politics dominated by the post-15 November 1955 major conservative and Japanese nationalist political party in post-WW2 Japan, the Liberal Democratic Party and the post 17-November 1964 to November 7, 1998 political party in post-WW2 Japan which is generally considered as centrist and conservative, the Kōmeitō and [post-WW2 Japan in this timeline] also experiences an economic, industrial, military, technological boom starting in the 1950s that leads to it [Japan itself] becoming a economic, industrial and military power even after its [Japan's] defeat in WW2 like in real

uninterrupted [Japan’s post war ascendancy into a major East Asian and world power in this timeline] to the rest of the 20th century into the 21th century and beyond, with no Lost Decade or Japanese economic crash to stop it like in real life and/or OTL, Japan gets back the entire Korean peninsula, Taiwan and the Pengu Islands along with Sakhalin and the Kurils in a manner similar to Okinawa in a time period from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s via a series of treaties, referendums and legal loopholes, in part due to the unification of the post November 1972, pre February 1981 unitary presidential republic under an authoritarian military dictatorship of the Fourth Republic of Korea in South Korea and the Soviet during the Cold War era and later the weak, crumbling post-Soviet,

reunifying into a restored KPR] with the Soviet-supported WPK’s post-25 April 1932 post armed wing and thus the DPRK’s post-8 February 1948 combined armed forces, which consists of five branches: the Ground Force, the Naval Force, the Air Force, Strategic Force, and the Special Operation Force, the Korean People’s Army [KPA] and the post- 30 October 1968 elite special forces of the KPA performing

the DPRK’s police system along with operating the prison system in the DPRK, monitoring the public distribution system and providing bodyguards to important persons, the Ministry of Social Security, [the DPRK's in North Korea's Ministry of Social Security] being subsequently simultaneously absorbed into the ROK’s post-14 November 1948 primary domestic law enforcement agency run under the ROK’s Ministry of the Interior and Safety, divided into 18 local police agencies and having local police forces within the ROK under its command, the Korean National Police Agency, with the DPRK’s post-1947 paramilitary force subordinate to the ministry which performs various internal security and border security tasks within the DPRK while being in charge of guarding the Military Demarcation Line, borders, and coasts, as well as major strategic facilities such as government offices, the Central Committee Yongbyon nuclear facilities, power plants and broadcasting facilities, being the DPRK’s combined national gendarmerie and civil defense organization organized in military lines, the Social Security Forces, [the DPRK's in North Korea's SSF] being being [the DPRK's in North Korea's SSF] absorbed [the DPRK's in North Korea's SSF] into the KNPA’s specialized Police tactical unit trained to perform dangerous operations whose main mission is counter-terrorism, but it also can include serving high-risk arrest warrants, performing hostage rescue and/or armed intervention, and engaging heavily armed criminals, the KNPA's SOU [Special Operations Unit] as Reconnaissance General Bureau, the KPA’s military intelligence bureau that [the RGB] manages the DPRK’s clandestine operations and [the RGB] is [the RGB] tasked with "political warfare, foreign intelligence, propaganda, subversion, kidnapping, special operations, and assassinations" and although its original missions have traditionally focused on clandestine operations such as commando raids, infiltrations and disruptions, the RGB has since come to control most of the known North Korean cyber capabilities, [the DPRK's RGB] is [the DPRK's RGB] absorbed [the DPRK's RGB] into the ROK’s chief intelligence agency and secret police agency, having the responsibility to supervise and coordinate both international and domestic intelligence activities and criminal investigations by all government intelligence agencies, including that of the ROK’s military along with the additional duties of collecting, coordinating, and distributing information on the ROK’s strategy and security, the maintenance of documents, materials, and facilities related to the nation’s classified information, investigation of crimes affecting national security within the ROK, such as the Military Secrecy Protection Law and the National Security Law, investigation of crimes related to the missions of its staff, along with planning and coordination of information and classified, the National Intelligence Service, as the DPRK’s post-2 September 1948 combined highest organ of state power and only branch of government, with all state organs in the DPRK subservient to it under the principle of unified power, the DPRK’s Supreme People’s Assembly, [the DPRK's SPA] is [the DPRK's SPA] absorbed [the DPRK's SPA] into the ROK’s post-17 July 1948 unicameral national legislature, the National Assembly of the Republic of Korea, [the DPRK's in North Korea's and the ROK's in South Korea's respective government, intelligence and military systems merging into one after the merger of the DPRK in North Korea and the ROK in South Korea into a restored KPR] which backfired on both men [Chung-Hee and Il-Sung] as the people of Korea immediately choose to rejoin Japan [after the reunification of Korea into a restored KPR] as a restored post-1910, pre-1947 Japanese province of Chōsen, though keeping the restored KPR government model as the Korean local government model in a democratic referendum due to the fears in Korea, that either the USSR, the USA, or worse China would make Korea a tributary state, with the rise of the region located in the Kim family-ruled, WPK-governed DPRK in North Korea that serves as a global center for high technology and innovation known as Silicon River started as a minor technology boom in the towns along the Ryesong River in the Kim family-ruled, WPK-governed DPRK in North Korea, which lead to the creation of the WPK-ruled DPRK-based Korean technology firm, arms manufacturer and multinational conglomete that was originally founded as APeX Computers by the part-American, DPRK-born Korean tech entrepeneur Joe Tae-se in 1972, that made its first successful marketing with the world's first personal computer in the world of the Homefront franchise [Homefront, Homefront: the Revolution], the APeX I, in 1975 and then in 1977,Joe Tae-se took advantage of the WPK-ruled DPRK's gradual transition into a capitalist nation after severe flooding in the Kim family-ruled, WPK-governed DPRK in North Korea causes the communist North Korean regime [the Kim family-ruled, WPK-governed DPRK] to [the Kim family-ruled, WPK-governed DPRK] come under huge pressure and the Kim family-ruled, WPK-governed DPRK's leader Kim Il-sung to resign, [Tae-se] and made a deal with the WPK-ruled DPRK's then-Premier, the moderate Lee Dong-won of the post- 3 November 1945 political party in the Kim family-ruled, WPK-governed DPRK which was formed by a mixed group of entrepreneurs, merchants, handicraftsmen, petite bourgeoisie, peasants, and Christians who were motivated by anti-imperialist and anti-feudal aspirations, and aimed to eliminate the legacy of Japanese rule and build a new democratic society, before coming under the control of the WPK and the DPRK's government, the Joseon Sahoe Minjudang [Korean Social Democratic Party |Joseon Sahoe Minjudang|] for the subsidized manufacture of APeX computers in the WPK-ruled DPRK, before APeX Computers expanded their marketing to North America and its products were very well received by the CCCP's KGB, GRU, OZNAZ and Soviet Armed Forces and the USA's CIA, NSA and US Armed Forces, and as a result, APeX Computers ushered the WPK-ruled DPRK's digital revolution and catalyzed the Silicon River, a chain of tech startups straddling the WPK-ruled DPRK's Ryesong River and then the successful launch of the APeX II personal computer in 1982, APeX Computers hired talented programmers from both the WPK-ruled DPRK and abroad, leading to the development of the first World Wide Web in 1988 and the first web browser, HORIZON, in 1989, and by the end of the 1980s, APeX Computers became the world's largest company, with revenues of $101 billion and profits of $5 billion, as its technology was used in everything from televisions to the International Space Station, more specifically becoming the world's most economic and technologically powerful company spreading its cultural influence throughout East Asia along with being the world's largest defense contractor as both the CCCP and the USA used APEX Computers' products, although this was hidden from the world as the WPK-ruled DPRK in North Korea decided to present itself [ the WPK-ruled DPRK in North Korea] as a poverty striken, starving impoverished hermit nation [ the WPK-ruled DPRK in North Korea in the global public] to prevent technology theft from global superpowers, [the current form of APeX Computers] known as [ APeX Computers' current name] APEX Corporation from Homefront: the Revolution, [the rise of Sillicon River in North Korea and the subsequent birth of APEX Corporation in North Korea in this timeline] subsequently happening under a Korean peninsula once more under Japanese control in this timeline, with Tae-se making a deal with successive Japanese administrations under the Liberal Democratic Party for the manufacturing of APeX computers not just in the Korean peninsula, but in the Japanese Home Islands in this timeline, thus making the post-1 July 1954 unified military forces of post-WW2 Japan, controlled by the Japanese Ministry of Defense with the Japanese Prime Minister as commander-in-chief, officially limited to internal security and homeland defense, and prohibited from possessing weapons that would increase their “war potential”, disallowed from offensive warmaking capabilities but not necessarily denied from the inherent right to self-defense, the Japanese Self-Defence Forces and the JSDF’s post-March 27, 2004 elite special forces unit with a mission of infiltration into enemy territory, reconnaissance, sabotage, and hostage rescue, and conducting military operations against guerrillas or enemy commandos during wartime, the Special Forces Group the strongest military [the JSDF] in the world with 25 million personnel, due to contributions from Japan's reannexed overseas provinces [ the entire Korean peninsula, Taiwan and the Pengu Islands along with Sakhalin and the Kurils], and an Expeditionary Force of more than 5 million troops, making it [the JSDF] the largest standing military [the JSDF] in the world, being a modernized military [the JSDF] after having replaced and scrapped most of its [the JSDF's] Cold War-era ordnance and upgrading the Army's training in an accelerated program along with being commonly armed with American-made and Soviet-made weapons and vehicles, resulting from its [the JSDF's] integration with the North Korean, South Korean and Taiwanese militaries, and also utilizing advanced weapons purchased from the EU, the former captive nations of the USSR that have joined the EU and Turkey by 1997.

The stability and good governance of this restored Beiyang Government ruling over the restored, modernized, contemporary version of Yuan Shikai’s Empire of China as a result of and after of the joint Beiyang-Ming restoration in mainland China in 1989 is as a result of and mostly relies on the secret machinations of the influence of the Ming restorationist romanticist millerian, adhering to Militant self-defense and tax resistance, heterodox traditional Chinese folk religion in addition to Ming restorationist romanticist monarchism, rural secret society and folk religious sect based in Northern Han China’s provinces of Henan, Shandong, Hebei, the Yellow Sand Society, the renmants of the the syncretic religious and political movement which forecasts the imminent advent of the “King of Light”, i.e., the future Buddha Maitreya, along with a hybrid movement of Buddhism and Manichaeism that emphasised Maitreya teachings and strict vegetarianism; its permission for men and women to interact freely was considered socially shocking appealing to many Han Chinese who found solace in the worship of the mother goddess in Chinese religion and mythology, also worshipped in neighbouring Asian countries, and attested from ancient times, Queen Mother of the West, which had helped the founding ruler of the Ming dynasty and thus the Ming dynasty’s first royal imperial monarch, Zhu Yuanzhang, [Yuanzhang] having the combined regal and era name of Hongwu to conquer much of China from around 1352-1371 but was later suppressed by the members of the Imperial House of Zhu ruling over the Ming dynasty as Emperors of Han China respectively over the centuries, the White Lotus Sect ,and the White Lotus’ daughter organization, the Chinese fraternal organization and historically a secretive folk religious sect founded to resist the rule of the Qing over the eighteen provinces of Han, with goals of Ming restorationism, which later became a massive crime syndicate in both East Asia and the world after the 1911-1912 Xinhai Revolution that toppled the Qing the post-1761 Heaven and Earth Society, [the Heaven and Earth Society] better known as the Triads, forming a compromise with the remnants and descendants of the leaders of the post-1916, pre-1926 Beiyang Government faction/Chinese military junta/Chinese warlord clique, more specifically the military and political organization in Beiyang Government-ruled China which [the clique] was largely a collection of military officers of the Beiyang Army, with connections to Duan Qirui, either due to family ties such as Wu Guangxin, being from the same locality such as Duan Zhigui, or having a teacher-student relationship such as Xu Shuzheng or Jin Yunpeng, which would grow to be defined by the policy of Unification By Force, which would was the strategy of uniting Manchuria, Han China and Cantonia, hrough military conquest rather than peaceful negotiation and because it organized itself very early, it was more politically sophisticated than its warlord rivals, with an associated civilian wing and [the clique] was named after Anhui province because several of its generals–including its founder, Duan Qirui–were born in Anhui, [the Clique] of the Anhui Clique, [the Anhui Clique’s remnants and descendants] the remnants and descendants of the leaders of the Anhui Clique’s political wing, [the Anhui

had their own party roles and positions which mirrored that of the Beiyang Government, with its official goal being to generate public policy, both foreign and internal, with their well-known foreign policies was the club’s diplomacy with Japan, overall, the club’s policy to Japan was largely friendly, but with the knowledge that Japan did not have the best interests of both China and the Beiyang Government in mind, not having an official ideology but frequently making use of socialist rhetoric and watered down policies, such as the passing of progressive laws making Sunday a holiday, creating safety regulations for factories and compulsory pensions for workers, [the Anhui Clique’s political wing] the Anfu Club, [the remnants and descendants of the Anfu Club] the remnants and descendants of the leaders of the Anhui Clique’s financial wing, [the Anhui Clique’s financial wing] the pre-1916, post-1919 powerful interest group of politicians, bureaucrats, technocrats, businessmen, engineers,

workers, even supporting their strikes against local warlords, [the Anhui Clique’s financial wing] the Communications Clique, along with the remnants and descendants of the constitionalist, statist,

The restored Beiyang Government-ruled restored Empire of China’s National Assembly quickly became dominated by the CCP's parent party, the post-2 December 1923 conservative, Chinese nationalist, adhering to Dr. Sun Yat-sen's three principles of the people: nationalism, democracy and Socialism, advocating for the elimination of China's warlords and the establishment of a strong central government, along with promoting a nationalist agenda which focused on the abolition of the special privileges and extraterritoriality which foreign powers had obtained in the China region during the last days of the Aisin-Gioro-ruled Great Qing Empire, being strongly anti-communist and consisting largely of landlords, school teachers, and businessmen, along with being based in the Zhang family-ruled Fengtian Clique, the Young China Party, [the YCP] and centrist elements of the KMT along with the post-19 March 1941 Chinese political organization that runs the CCP-ruled PRC with the CCP, founded as a pro-democracy umbrella coalition group with an ideology of Big tent Centrism along with Multi-party democracy, China Democratic League, [the CDL] which [the CDL] became a actual democratic organization [the CDL] after the June Fourth Movement, the Second Xinhai Revolution and the permanent balkanization of China and the post-November 1927-9 August 1930 Chinese political party which governs the CCP-ruled PRC with the CCP, having an ideology of Chinese nationalism, Chinese imperialism, Han nationalism, Han imperialism and socialism with Chinese characterstics, the Chinese Peasants’ and Workers’ Democratic Party, with the CCP being absorbed into the CCP and the Han nationalist, Han imperialist, Han expansionist elements of the KMT being suppressed with the restoration of the Beiyang Government-ruled Empire of China, albiet ruled by Chongzhen’s and Yongli’s descendants instead of Yuan Shikai’s descendants as the government of the provinces of Hebei, Henan, Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Gansu and Chongqing (modern-day city was part of Sichuan) in Han China afterthe June Fourth Movement, the Second Xinhai Revolution and the permanent balkanization of China seemingly turning the clock on Chinese history, reversing the years since 1928 in Chinese government chronology in a short span of time, as the Chinese calender reverts to the Beiyang Government calender instead of the CCP-ruled PRC’s and the KMT-ruled Nationalist Chinese ones, the Beiyang Government’s democratic multiparty parliamentary elections that had been suspended since 1 July 1925, [the Beiyang Government’s democratic national elections that had been suspended since 1 July 1925 returning after the restoration of the Beiyang Government-ruled Empire of China, albiet ruled by the descendants of the Imperial House of Zhu instead of Yuan Shikai’s descendants as a result of and after the June Fourth Movement] resuming [the Beiyang Government’s democratic national elections that had been suspended since since 1 July 1925] as if neither the KMT-ruled Nationalist China nor the CCP-ruled PRC had ever existed nor [the KMT-ruled Nationalist China nor the CCP-ruled PRC] even [the KMT-ruled Nationalist China nor the CCP-ruled PRC] ruled [the KMT-ruled Nationalist China nor the CCP-ruled PRC] over China in the first place, with the bewildered Chinese masses exercising their right to vote for the first time since 1925 in a rather staggering turn out and the Beiyang Government’s of the first Republic of China’s last civilian Great President before Zuolin’s seizure of power, the Cantonese-Shanghaiese diplomat and statesman who was one of China’s representatives at the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, Ku Wei-chün, better known as [ Ku Wei-chün’s more famous alias] V.

The choice of the descendants of the Imperial House of Zhu as the restored Empire of China's current reigning imperial family instead of the descendants of the Chinese philosopher of the Spring and Autumn period who is traditionally considered the paragon of Chinese sages, as well as the first teacher in China to advocate mass education, who considered himself a transmitter for the values of earlier periods which he claimed had been abandoned in his time along with filial piety, endorsing strong family loyalty, ancestor veneration, the respect of elders by their children and of husbands by their wives and also recommended a robust family unit as the cornerstone for an ideal government Kong Qiu, better known as Confucius, [the Kong descendants] the descendants of the Han dynasty’s reigning imperial family, the Imperial House of Liu, [the Liu descendants] the descendants of the Song dynasty’s reigning imperial family, the Imperial House of Zhao, [the Zhao descendants] the descendants of the Tang dynasty’s reigning imperial family, the Imperial House of Li and the descendants of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom’s reigning imperial family, the Royal House of Hong, [the Zhu descendants being chosen over the Yuan, Kong, Liu, Li and Hong descendants as the restored Empire of China’s reigning imperial family] with the Yuan, Kong, Liu, Li and Hong descendants in the restored Empire of China all [ the Yuan, Kong, Liu, Li and Hong descendants] being given positions of aristocracy, nobility and royality in the restored Empire of China’s unified system of peerage created by restoring and then modernizing and updating the system of peerage Shikai had created when the initial Beiyang Government transitioned from the initial first Republic of China into the initial Empire of China from 1915-1916 with restored and the updated and modernized systems of the Han, Song and initial Ming dynasties along with those created by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, although the Hong descendants were absorbed into the reenthroned Imperial House of Zhu ruling over the restored Ming dynasty governing Han China due to the Royal House of Hong’s founding monarch and thus first ruler of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Hong Xiuquan, [Xiuquan] claiming to be descended from the initial Ming dynasty’s first Emperor [Hongwu], [the Hong descendants being absorbed into the reenthroned Imperial House of Zhu] via intermarriage both polygamous and monogamous, concubinage and adoption helps stabilize the restored Zhu-ruled Ming dynasty ruling over Han China after the June Fourth movement.

Meanwhile in the Occident, the USA and what was once the USSR before the 1980s collapses into warlordism, anarchy and chaos due to the US-Soviet Cold War turning hot sometime in 1984-1985 due to the Soviets overreacting to the military exercise conducted by the post-4 April 1949 intergovernmental military alliance of 32 member states—30 European and 2 North American, which is a collective security system: its independent member states agree to defend each other against attacks by third parties, operating as a check on the threat posed by the Soviet Union during the Cold War known as the North Atlantic Treaty Organization that took place in November 1983, Able Archer 83, and [the Soviets] starting WW3 over [the Soviets] misunderstanding Able Archer 83,leading to the events of the 1984 Red Dawn film, with NATO withdrawing from the USA as the Soviet Union is devastated by a failed wheat harvest and invades the Soviet satellite state of the post-21 December 1948, pre-30 January 1990 Marxist-Leninist, Communist, left wing nationalist Polish United Workers' Party-ruled, post-19 February 1947, pre-31 December 1989 Unitary Marxist–Leninist one-party socialist republic under a totalitarian military dictatorship of the Polish People's Republic in Poland to suppress food and labor riots in Poland as Soviet allies Cuba and Nicaragua build up their military strength while El Salvador and Honduras fall under Soviet influence and a communist coup d'état seizes control in Mexico, even as the USA falls under darkness under the Anglophilic, England-worshipping, Anglo supremacist, white supremacist, anti-Christian evangelicalist secularist Blue Dog wing of the American Democrat Party subscribing to the cult faith of Christian Identity, which entiles that white Western Europeans, more specifically white-Anglo Saxons, are the descendants of the Lost Tribes of Isreal and thus entitled to rule the world, with Ashekenzaism Jews being seen as impostors and "Gog

out of the feeling of unity in East Slavic territories being historically tied through Christian Eastern Orthodox faith and Slavic culture, according to which the Moscow Prince should act as a supreme ruler (Sovereign and legislator) of Christian Eastern Orthodox nations and become a defender of the Christian Eastern Orthodox Church, the Church should facilitate the Sovereign in execution of his function supposedly determined by God, the autocratic administration, asserting Moscow as the successor to ancient Rome, and more specifically the Byzantine Empire, with the Russian world carrying forward the legacy of the Roman Empire, known as Moscow, Third Rome in addition to anti-Western Eurasianism and Pan-Slavism along with rabid anti-Islamic Zionism, marking a similar development in post-WW1, pre-WW2 Poland where Pan-Slavism, Germanophoblia and the desire of control over Eastern Europe and the Baltics, along with Polish megalomania and desire to recreate the long-gone Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth forced the Nazis to invade Poland from 1 September 1939 – 6 October 1939 to save Europe and the world from Polish megalomania and genocide against not only Germans, but Belarussians and Ukranians occupied by Poland, starting WW2 with the Blue Dogs being the Nazi analogue here, with the Soviets and Americans both blaming each other [the CCCP and the USA] for the

February 1979 unitary parliamentary semi-constitutional imperial royal monarchy of the Imperial State of Iran known as the Iranian Revolution in this timeline, which [the failure of the Iranian

Iraq getting information that Khomeini planned to start a war with Iraq and then after fighting Iraq, take over the entire Middle East and restore the Persian Empire in the name of fighting Soviet and American imperialism, which of course angered Saddam, though how Saddam got that information was never made public knowledge, as the Iranian Imperial House of Pahlavi/Pahlavi dynasty-ruled Imperial

half-Japanese niece, Aisin-Gioro Husheng becoming Empress of Manchukuo, the Llama-ruled Kingdom of TIbet in Tibet and the East Turkestan Republic in East Turkestan liberating themselves from Han Chinese settler colonialism, and Yunnan coming under the rule of a reconstituted Yunnan Clique before restoring the Imperial House of Duan-ruled Dali Kingdom as its government, even as the main branch of the Imperial House of Borjigin-ruled Mongolian Autonomous Federation was restored as the government of Inner Mongolia's Chahar and Suiyan provinces, as the Bîn-chú Chìn-bō͘ Tóng-dominated Republic of Taiwan in Taiwan and the Pengu Islands choose to rejoin Japan as a restored Formosa province, with the jointly restored Zhu-ruled Ming dynasty and Beiyang Government ruling over Han China and the jointly restored Zhang family-ruled Fengtian Clique and the Aisin-Gioro-ruled Empire of Manchukuo in Manchuria subsequently recognizing Japan's "right" to reclaim Taiwan and the Pengu Islands via a series of non-aggression treaties, treaties and mutual defence pacts with the Japanese, humiliating the USSR and USA further as the jointly restored Zhu-ruled Ming dynasty and Beiyang Government in Han China was ruled to be the legitimate successor state of the KMT-ruled Nationalist China and the one true China and the jointly restored Zhang family-ruled Fengtian Clique and Aisin-Gioro-ruled Empire of Manchukuo was ruled to be the legitimate successor state of the CCP-ruled PRC under international law by the Hague and the UN, as the international community opened up diplomatic and economic relationships with the monarchies and republics of the Chinese mainland and Japan made Manchuria, Inner Mongolia and Han China into protectorates once more to form the united community, military allaince and trade bloc of peaceful, prosperous and dynamic East Asian nations, or to be more specific the economic and military alliance with the mission of growing the strength of the East Asian region through a united monetary policy and a central military command known as the East Asian Community with Outer Mongolia and Yunnan soon joining the East Asian Community, with the EAC central bank being based in Seoul and being tasked with setting and enforcing monetary policy among the member states, and the EAC's Strategic Command is located in Pyongyang and is responsible for coordinating defense and training of the militaries of all member states, with the Red Dawn backstory coming in as the United States becomes increasingly isolated after a green political party gains power in the post-1949, pre-1989-1991 federal constitutional parliamentary republic of the Federal Republic of Germany in West Germany and successfully persuades Western Europe to remain neutral in the US- Soviet conflict over resources and the Third World in the 1980s, with NATO withdrawing from the USA as the CCCP is devastated by a failed wheat harvest and invades the Soviet satellite state of the post-21 December 1948, pre-30 January 1990 Marxist-Leninist, Communist, left wing nationalist Polish United Workers' Party-ruled, post-19 February 1947, pre-31 December 1989 Unitary Marxist–Leninist one-party socialist republic under a totalitarian military dictatorship of the Polish People's Republic in Poland to suppress food and labour riots in the PUWP-ruled PPR in Poland, as the Warday backstory is brought in with the United States deploying Spiderweb, an advanced anti-ballistic missile system which could use an orbiting particle beam to destroy both land and submarine launched missiles as part of the post-1984, pre-1993 proposed missile defense system intended to protect the United States from attack by ballistic nuclear missiles, with advanced weapon concepts, including lasers,[4][5] particle-beam weapons, and ground and space-based missile systems being studied, along with sensor, command and control, and computer systems needed to control a system consisting of hundreds of combat centers and satellites spanning the globe, which was helped by the USA having a significant advantage in advanced missile defense systems over the CCCP through decades of extensive research and testing known as the Strategic Defense Initiative, and to prevent its deployment, the Soviets destroyed the US Space Shuttle Enterprise with a hunter-killer satellite before the Soviets then detonated a set of six large nuclear warheads in space above the United States, causing a massive electromagnetic pulse that crippled electronics across the country [the USA] and [the CCCP] then [the CCCP] launched a limited first strike using satellites to deploy their warheads sometime in October 1988 and in response, the U.S. president, aboard Boeing E-4 NEACP, authorized a counterattack, destroying Moscow, Leningrad, Sevastopol, and the capitals of the Eastern European nations occupied by the Soviet puppet states in the Warsaw Pact.

Shortly afterwards, the NEACP, crippled by the electromagnetic pulse, crash-landed in North Carolina, killing the US president but leaving other survivors including the Undersecretary, as the "limited attack" by the Soviets destroyed Washington, D.C., San Antonio, and most of Long Island, and ICBM missile fields and major air bases in North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming, killing about seven million people with subsequent firestorms and fallout destroying most of Brooklyn, Queens, Baltimore, and most of southwest Texas withthe Soviet Navy also launching nuclear attacks that destroyed about 90 percent of the United States Navy, suffering heavy losses in return, with the duration of the war being just around 36 minutes, although the Soviets attempted to occupy parts of the USA with their Mongolian, Eastern European and Latin American allies [the events of the 1984 Red Dawn Movie], although the USSR collapsed after the US-Soviet war and Warday, with almost half its [the CCCP's] population killed on Warday or dead with former Soviet republics (such as the "Kingdom of Azerbaijan" as well as a White Russian enclave) subsequently declaring themselves independent states in the aftermath of the joint Soviet-US fall as a result of Warday, and prior to the conflict between the U.S. and the Soviets, the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord [the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland |the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord|], a unitary parliamentary constitutional democratic monarchy [the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord] which [the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord] consists [the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord] of [the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord’s territories] Les Iles Britanniques/Britannica Ostrova [the British Isles |Les Iles Britanniques/Britannica Ostrova|, which |Les Iles Britanniques/Britannica Ostrova| consist |Les Iles Britanniques/Britannica Ostrova| of |the territories in Scandinavia that are part of Les Iles Britanniques/Britannica Ostrova| |Le Royaume d’Angleterre |Kingdom of England/England (Le Royaume d’Angleterre)|, Le Duché de Galles/Dugiaeth Cymru |the Dutchy of Wales/Wales (Le Duché de Galles/Dugiaeth Cymru)|, Le Royaume d’Écosse/Rìoghachd na h-Alba |the Kingdom of Scotland/Scotland (Le Royaume d’Écosse/Rìoghachd na h-Alba)|, and Ríocht na hÉireann |the Kingdom of Ireland/Ireland (Ríocht na hÉireann)|], [the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord] ruled [the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord] by [the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord’s reigning family] the Deutsche [German |Deutsche|]-Russkye [Russian |Russkye|] Königshaus Sachsen-Gotha-Romanow [Royal House of Saxe-Gotha-Romanov |Königshaus Sachsen-Gotha-Romanov |Königshaus Sachsen-Gotha-Romanow|] as [what the Königshaus Sachsen-Gotha-Romanow rules the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord as] its [the Royaume-Uni de Grande-Bretagne et d’Irlande du Nord’s] famille royale [royal family |famille royale|], the post-4 October 1958 unitary semi-presidential constitutional republic of the Fifth French Republic in France, and the FRG in West Germany signed a secret "Treaty of Coventry", under which they would seize U.S. military facilities in their respective countries, in the event of a sudden nuclear war between the U.S. and the Soviets like in canon Warday, with these nations informing the Soviets of their intent to stay neutral.

 Manhattan and the remaining undamaged boroughs are evacuated, cordoned off, and eventually fall into ruin, without water, electrical, or transit systems.

 Water in New Jersey is contaminated by runoff from damaged petrochemical industries. Philadelphia and Houston are evacuated because of heavy fallout from the D.C. and San Antonio bombings. 

Radioactive dusting of the Midwest and Central Plains causes a famine that kills millions. Less than a year after the war, a new strain of influenza known as the Cincinnati Flu quickly reached epidemic levels, killing 21 million throughout the United States and millions more worldwide.[6] The remaining U.S. citizens remain in danger from radiation poisoning and from a new incurable disease of unknown origin, Non-Specific Sclerosing Disease.

Soon there is no longer a single United States; California and Texas form de facto independent nations, with autonomous military forces and currencies. The now-nearly-powerless federal government is re-established in Los Angeles. A new Hispanic/Native American nation named Aztlan emerges through secession. Its government claims all of the area from West Texas to the California border up to Nevada, has forcibly expelled almost all white residents, and has established a libertarian socialist country that grants total autonomy to the Native American tribes within its borders. 

It welcomes Mexican immigrants and announces plans to form a Hispanic nation along the Mexican border that includes California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas west of the Pecos. The Japanese provide economic aid to Aztlan in exchange for exploitation of natural resources such as soy and uranium, and there is evidence that in reality, Aztlan has become a client state of Japan. Aztlan is recognized by most nations in Africa and Latin America, but the governor of Texas plans to retake Aztlan by force. 

The EMP destroyed most bank accounts, 401(k) plans, pension funds, financial records, the stock market, the credit system and other electronically stored assets in the United States and Canada. Money had undergone a rapid deflation and the economy reverted to a Gold Dollar system. Most electronic machinery and devices are also irretrievably damaged. Oil falls to 12 cents a barrel, while many other nations have called in loans and debts owed them by the United States.

Part of Japan's quick recovery from the US-Soviet War and Warday, was not only natural but was due to the presence of Yōkai [monster/s, |Yōkai| very powerful supernatural anthropomorphic plants, animals or other living things consisting of innumerable, and diverse varieties that grow stronger with age and their varying bloodlines that can be found in many locations, ranging from mountains to forests; some even hide among human dwellings, often to cause trouble for their human inhabitants, usually only associating with their own kind, unless driven by some pressing need or self-interest, especially when overwhelming numbers are needed, either ignoring or being outright hostile to humans], daiyōkai [Great Monster |daiyōkai|, very powerful type of yōkai that is much stronger and smarter than common yōkai, many different shapes and powers, with some being gigantic and inhuman in appearance, but all being able to assume a completely human appearance, normally being haughty, arrogant,

the child of a yōkai and a human, though humans can be transformed into hanyō.], [Yōkai, daiyōkai, and hanyō] still [Yōkai, daiyōkai, and hanyō] exist like in canon Rosario + Vampire, along with yōki [monster energy, a variant of both spiritual energy and magical energy used specifically by Yōkai, daiyōkai, and hanyō in both combat and everyday life], powerful creatures created from a human virgin drained of blood by a vampire of the opposite sex, only for said vampire to offer their own blood in return, which resurrects the drained person as a newborn among the undead and perpetuates a lineage, with enhanced speed, telekinesis, hypnosis, Agelessness from the point of infection and a need to sleep in a coffin or in contact with the soil of one's birthplace, immense regenerative abilities, possessing Elongated fangs and red eyes, with a thirst for human blood, the ability to both mentally create and project third eye" capable of focusing images, allowing for superior targeting and the destruction of illusions, control of solid shadows, to the point it allows for extended flight, along with the ability to enter brutal berserk state, [the creatures] known as true vampires that exist in the Hellsing franchise, [true vampires] coexisting alongside the subspecies of Yōkai and daiyōkai with immortality, superhuman physical abilities and powers, including strength, speed, agility, reflexes, endurance, durability and accelerated healing with their strength being sufficient to single-handedly lift a grown man off the ground with ease, with their build, height, and mass no longer determining their strength, along with the ability to obtain memories through blood ingestion, possibly through their Yōkai nature affecting their brain and nerves and making their other tissues and fluids capable of obtaining bio-organic signals and information, which could explain their healing abilities, enhanced senses which include acutely increased depth perception, sense of smell, hearing, and night vision which manifests as electric blue or yellow eyes enhanced resilience, and regenerative healing, at the cost of inheriting a severe weakness to ultraviolet radiation and a dependence on the consumption of blood, human or otherwise, though preferably human called Vampires from Rosario + Vampire in this story, the race on the boundary of between human and Yōkai, living in harmony with nature deep within the woods, far from human habitation, having the power to use magic by harnessing the power of nature, who use their wands to create a large variety of objects and weapons (which require magical attributes in order to use magic) known as Witches from Rosario + Vampire, with the snow spirit with vampiric and succubic like aspects known as a Yuki-Onna from both Japanese mythology and Rosario + Vampire, along with the foxes that possess paranormal abilities that increase as they get older and wiser, who have the ability to shapeshift into human or other forms, and to trick or fool human beings, who have standard powers of possession, generating fire or lightning, willful manifestation in the dreams of others, flight, invisibility, and the creation of illusions so elaborate as to be almost indistinguishable from reality along with being able to bend time and space, drive people mad, or take fantastic shapes such as an incredibly tall tree or a second moon in the sky, along with vampiric and succinic characteristics, who gain the abilities to see and hear anything happening anywhere in the world upon gaining their ninth tail, known as a Kitsune, all exist in this scenario in Japan, hidden from humans, along with the pre-teen and teenage girls along with young women possessing great magical, psychic, and physical power along with the ability to transform into a stronger form at will, which can mostly be unlocked by the man they love via a passionate mouth to mouth kiss, who is called a general, [the young girls] known as the Master Samurai from Hyakka Ryōran Samurai Gāruzu, miko [Shinto shrine maidens |miko| serving |which East Asian deities miko serve| the kami |the gods (kami) of (which East Asian religion kami belong

areas to develop physical prowess, spiritual power, and magical abilities], Shugenja [practitioners of Shugendō engaged in rigorous spiritual and physical training in the wilderness, who sought mystical powers and enlightenment], among the Japanese nobility and regular people.

This recovery of Japan after the US-Soviet War and Warday was helped by the fact that Japanese companies were the number one supplier of enterprise and military-grade electronics globally, providing everything from rack mounted switching systems for cell phones networks to guidance systems for unmanned aerial vehicles, along with the fact that Japanese electronics were cheap and highly demanded for the leanest power consumption profiles in which their primarily consumer, ironically, was the United States military before the US-Soviet War and Warday.

Joint collaboration between the human and Yōkai governments of Japan after the US-Soviet War and Warday lead to the construction of artificial island; a Gigafloat, more specifically a small artificially constructed island; made out of carbon fiber, resin, metal and Magical Arts that is built with a center that is its foundation linked with a surrounding series of four giant floating constructs known as Gigafloats interwoven by an intersection of ley lines of massive spiritual energy known as Dragon Veins floating in the middle of the Pacific, around 330km south of Tokyo, Japan which is a Demon Sanctuary initially under Japan; a part of Tokyo, however even since, is already independent; being a special administrative district with an independent political structure in actuality, having. five main districts: representing four Divine Beasts; the North Island which houses the general Research and Development district that is composed of numerous corporate laboratories as the Black Turquoise, South Island which houses the Residential District therefore the building height is heavily restricted and is complimented with a research and development area composed of educational and related corporate facilities as the Vermilion Bird, West Island which houses the Commercial District that is composed of numerous commercial businesses such as family restaurants, karaoke joints and convenience stores that mostly continue to operate until daybreak and is popular amongst Demons for many of its services are targeted at them primarily thus becoming the national symbol of the peaceful coexistence of Demons and Humans as the White Tiger and East Island that houses the Industrial District where warehouses are. as the Azure Dragon, while representing their ruler, the Center Island which is the nucleus houses the Keystone Gate as the Yellow Dragon, linked together to control the Dragon Veins, with its Sub-floats housing its various supplementary facilities, such are it's dry docks for ship repair, floating crude oil depositories, and a giant dumpster for the storage of its nonflammable waste, which is located on the Pacific Ocean, a tropical area with the influence of warm currents, therefore it has a warm climate year-round, with temperatures averaging above 20°C even in winter, thus it became known as the Island of Everlasting Summer while it is prone to heavy rainfall and is always struck with several typhoons year-round, and is internationally guarded by Japan's police and [Japan's] Federal Attack Mages still while it is locally guarded by its Island Guards who are armed with heavy weaponry, helicopters and armoured personnel carriers, and various other kinds of advanced weaponry as well as operate numerous magic sensors to track the use of high levels of magic energy within the Island to maintain its law and order, Itogami-jima [Itogami Island | Itogami-jima|] from Strike the Blood, which is this story's version of a landlocked sovereign city-state whose territory consists of a walled enclave within Western Tokyo, which is a city of several schools and institutions of higher learning from kindergarten to university level that learn side-by-side along with the scientists who research on psychic powers and higher technology, the latter being one of the primary reasons for its establishment that is the most advanced city in the world and its technology is said to be 20[1] or 30[2] years ahead of the world, and is composed of 23 districts, called School Districts which are simply numbered from one to twenty-three and each of these districts have a specific purpose, with government affairs being delegated to a Board of Directors which are expendable and can be replaced any time with the government having absolute power regarding policies, as adults have no say regarding policies being implemented with no suffrage since the majority population are minors despite having a constitution, Academy City from A Certain Magical Index, [Itogami-jima, which is this story's version of Academy City] with the giant conglomerate with branches all over the Far East, more specifically the corporate group formed of a number of sorcerous product manufacturers with global reach, and is one of the world's leading magic industrial complexes, being an industrial giant that made everything from pills for the common cold to military fighter jets and having accumulated so much power in its expansion into a giant international conglomerate that it was viewed as an eyesore across the globe, employing a large number of skilled specialists, possess the know-how to move as an organization, and also possess the financial power to hire the right people and the technology to allow people to live prosperous lives, Magna Ataraxia Research from Strike the Blood, [MAR] doing most of the construction of Itogami-jima in this story using captured Soviet and American soliders as free labour.

MAR's enormous enterprise on Itogami-jima employing nearly a thousand researchers, which was designed with considerable security features in mind, like security pods constructed with sorcerous circuitry and colorful miniature robots about the size of a garbage can, but on the inside, MAR security pods were military-grade unmanned attack robots, prototype weapons developed with anti-demonic combat in mind, which was constructed in the district at the center of Island North. Including the affiliate hospital to which it was connected, it harbored nearly a thousand researchers, making it one of the largest research organizations within Itogami-jima, with the results of its Demon Sanctuary research constituted critical information one might even call MAR's corporate lifeline with analysis of demonic abilities and biology and employing this to develop industrial and medical products—it was said that the horde of products originating from Itogami-jima constituted over sixty percent of the massive corporation that MAR had become with entry points into the laboratory’s interior came furnished with a security presence rivaling that of a military base, was especially strict for the highly profitable medical department, and in addition to armed security pods that kept watch twenty-four/seven, it came with demonic security personnel patrols and even magical fortifications, pretty much the finest anti-intrusion measures anyone could imagine, MAR's Itogami Laboratory from Strike the Blood, [MAR's Itogami Laboratory] is [MAR's Itogami Laboratory] crucial [MAR's Itogami Laboratory] in the development of indigenous Japanese versions of the self-aware, sentinent, singularity-reaching sentinent AI modules and programs as well as gynoids, androids and robots generally refered to as Omnics from Overwatch from technology taken from the multinational corporate entity that revolutionized the manufacturing of robotics which began life as a “scrappy start-up” before becoming “a massive disrupter on the world stage.”, pioneering the use of automation and self-improving software algorithms in robotics manufacturing, along with carrying out research and application of AI and cybernetics that improved countless lives and alleviated global poverty, which helped it to rise to become a multinational entity, with an annual budget greater than that of some nations, in addition to being approached by corporate farmers, who purchased their robots for use on their megafarms, eliminating the need for human labor, but whose focus was the bottom line, and whose work was firmly tied to their profit margins, and programs that failed to yield the desired results were abandoned, regardless of long-term projections, Omnica Corporation from Overwatch, [the inventions of Omnics by Omnica] with Omnica Corporation creating the automated, self-powered, self-repairing, and self-improving facilities, that were powered by fusion cores that, if destroyed, could result in nuclear fallout, but streamlining the manufacturing process, leading to better supply and lower overhead known as Omniums from Overwatch to [Omnica Corporation creating the Omniums] to [Omnica Corporation] automate the process of Omnic manufacturing, [the inventions of Omnics by Omnica and the subsequent development of the Omniums to automate the process of Omnic manufacturing] along with reverse-engineered versions of British-created in this story superconductive, extremely unstable and extremely explosive, radioactive, supermineral of Sakuradite-powered humanoid war machine mechs standing at an impressive height of four to five meters, equipped with Landspinners, ingenious self-propelled roller skates [Landspinners] affixed to their ankles, [the land spinners] enabling agile mobility and rapid speeds across diverse terrains, capturing data via the remarkable Factsphere Sensors encased within a protective layer of armor,[the Factsphere Sensors] can [the Factsphere Sensors] be [the Factsphere Sensors] retracted to heighten system sensitivity, ensuring the utmost precision and accuracy,[the Factsphere Sensors] endowed with thermographic capabilities and an array of other data-collection functions, all seamlessly collated in real-time, along with having the respective units' respective cockpits in the respective units' prominent 'hump back', a self-contained control center [the cockpit] from which the mech is expertly piloted, [the cockpit] having the ability to be ejected in case of an emergency known as [the name of the mechs] Knightmare Frames from Code Geass known as the Samurai Models, along with reverse-engineered versions of the floating cockpits with missiles, bombs and Gatling guns reverse-engineered from Knightmare Frame technology, the Knight Giga Fortress [Code Geass] along with the large bipedal machines, and a primary weapon system whose movement is a combination of bipedal locomotion and thrust from their Jump Units, and their legs and arms are moved with carbon actuators, superconducting bands of carbon-based material that expand and contract based on the electrical current passed though them; the electricity to power the carbon actuators come from a combination of batteries and magnesium fuel cells, mobility is further enhanced by their joint construction; the combined usage of carbon actuators and multiple joints structures in a single joint segment impart said machines with high operating limits and shock-absorbing capabilities during battle, with Sub-Arms positioned underneath the shoulder-block armor allow said machines a wide range of arm movement without interference, along with being armored in an anti-projectile and heat-resistant composite that has been further treated with anti-laser coating, with armor on the upper body segment also aids in maneuverability by improving the active instability aspect of said machine; a higher center of gravity improves the execution time of maneuvers during combat, [the mechs] known as the Tactical Surface Fighters from the Mabrave Unlimited and Mabrave Ortanative franchises for use by the Japanese government in this story, similarly to the American "Skunk Works".

This of course means that WPK-ruled DPRK's KPA unmanned ground vehicle that is a 6-wheeled all-wheel drive semi-autonomous ground attack drone that can ram through most buildings, is equipped with advanced computers, including a synthensized version of a self-preservation instinct, with it moving out of immediate enemy fire when attacking and can carry up to 8,000 pounds of armor and ordinance and only armed with one automatic firing cannon, a twin linked rocket launcher and a minigun below it, the Goliath from the Homefront franchise and the unmanned ground combat vehicle that is a fully autonomous drone, equipped with a Byeolag ["Thunderbolt"] semi automatic electrical slug cannon that can subdue or neutralize targets, and an LRAD (Long Range Acoustic Device) to alert friendly troops, the Wolverine from the Homefront franchise, [the Goliath and the Wolverine] are [the Goliath and the Wolverine] instead [the Goliath and the Wolverine] used by the JSDF in this timeline.

After the US-Soviet War and then Warday, a special section of Japan's miko called Toji, who [the Toji] attend school while [the Toji] improving their [the Toji's] extermination skills and [the Toji] serve as a unit in the post-WW2 Japan’s post-July 1, 1954 central coordinating law enforcement agency of the Japanese police system responsible for supervising Japan’s 47 prefectural police departments and determining their general standards and policies, though it can command police agencies under it in national emergencies or large-scale disasters, under the  post-1947Japanese Cabinet Office commission responsible for guaranteeing the neutrality of the Japanese police system by insulating the force from political pressure and ensuring the maintenance of democratic methods in police administration, the National Public Safety Commission of the Japanese Cabinet Office, the Japanese National Police Agency, to exorcise rouge supernatural creatures within Japan, [the Toji] being [the Toji] authorized [the Toji] to wear swords and [the Toji] serve as Japanese government officials, although its [the Toji's] members live ordinary school lives, while [the Toji's members] occasionally performing their [the Toji's members] duties, [the Toji's members] wielding their [the Toji's members] swords and using various powers to fight and protect the people of Japan from supernatural threats, [the Toji] receive a massive wave of recruitment from not only the Japanese Home Islands, but Korea, Taiwan and the Pengu Islands and Sakhalin.

government’s and the US Armed Forces’ shared secretive Black Tower program, whose purpose was to create a new kind of soldier, more specifically a high-response, self-sustaining, quick-healing, stronger, faster solider, fueled by high-concentrate nutritional supplements, operating without conscience or hesitation, programmable and erasable like a computer, one that could be turned on or off, which [the Black Tower program] involved the dead corpses of elite US Delta Forces, Green Berets and other US Special Forces personnel who had died in battle to the mega-corporation’s that specialized mostly in arms dealing and the manufacturing of advanced military and defence weaponry from the Universal Solider franchise, Strafford Industries’ labs after being recovered and preserved in ice and later cryogenic technology within 5-10 minutes death of said soldiers and then cooled down with a nitrogen-based gas in the labs, a process known as “Freeze”, then the speeding-up of the corpses’ cellular activity on a genetic level via electromagnetic field manipulation intercrossed with injection of a special serum providing enzyme stimulation known as “Repair”, and then finally, the triggering of the corpses’ physiological reactivation through thyroid and pituitary augmentation via a serum known as “Reheat” was done, after which the reanimated soldiers were subsequently given bone, muscle and joint augmentations for added strength, durability and speed and then implanted with command chips and other mechanical parts that allow the US government control over them, and then after the “Freeze”, “Repair” and “Reheat” process and the subsequent steroid boosters and cybernetic augmentation, given a powerful memory clearance drug, which (once it wears off) causes the reanimated soliders to revert back to their former personalities to keep them in a blank state before putting said reanimated soliders through training that would break even Tier One operators from the military and CIA, and outright kill anyone else below Special Forces and then putting them back in the field, with said reanimated soldiers being placed in cyrogenics when not needed by the US government, and being fed with a high-concentrate nutritional supplement specifically designed for consumption by said said reanimated soldiers, who are known as Series 1/2 Unisols (Universal Soliders) known as the Black Tower program from Universal Solider, with the Black Tower program then suspended by the more advanced “White Tower” Program, under the direct control of the US government, more specifically a US government corporate front located in Langley, Virginia known as Boone Unlimited by which the dead elite US soldiers under go the same “Freeze”, “Repair” and “Reheat” reanimation process and the subsequent steroid boosters and cybernetic augmentation as those who go under the Black Tower program, but before they get the memory clearance drug and subsequent grueling training before being put back on the field, receive a D.N.A. tune up from the inside-out via gene therapy techniques that provide said reanimated soldiers with a responsive organism and superior physical capabilities to Series 1/2 Unisols, still-alive regular soldiers and special forces units and even regular humans, along with having additional chips implanted into the back of their heads that make them into remorseless killers, unable to disobey orders given to them by their handlers, along with separate failsafe chips that make their handlers unable to attack or even harm them along with retina implants that are tied into their nervous systems, preventing them from attacking those who are chipped with beacons that indicate that they are not to be fired upon or attacked, with the new model of Unisol being superior in every way to Series 1/2 Unisols, being virtual killing machines with the resulting improved Unisols being created by the White Tower program being known as NGUs [Next Generation Unisols] from the Universal Solider franchise, with the process of creating Universal Soliders being so advanced that alive clones are now being created and undergoing the same process that makes a dead solider into an NGU, but still being alive, and along with now given an implant in their brains, which dissolves their fake memories and identities given to them by the government to allow them to infiltrate the civilian population and switches them on for operations when the government needs them and also have the ability to regenerate lost limbs and other body parts, being much more stronger, tougher and faster than both regular UniSols and NGUs known as Sleeper Unisols from the Universal Solider franchise, [the Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs] which [the Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs] are [the Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs] later [the Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs] enhanced [the Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs] with equipment made and developed from advanced technology, more specifically advanced technology, more specifically nuclear and renewable-energy based dieselpunk style advanced covert defense technology [laser and plasma weaponry in the form of infantryman-level units and Gatling lasers equipped on US, Soviet and mainland Chinese military helicopters, orbital weapons systems capable of firing specially created nuclear missiles or tungsten rods, advanced robotics capable of either fighting in battle or serving

technology and sorcery known as Machinart, circuits made from spells that are put into objects to bring them to life and give them artificial intelligence, with the resulting Automatons being developed as a military weapon and spread throughout the world; the humans in charge of them became known as puppeteers from Unbreakable Machine Doll, [Keiichi and Rika using their contacts within the US government to procure research materials and resources from the US government's and US Armed Forces' Universal Solider Program] to age the still embroyic Sekirei to either adulthood, adolescence or childhood.

Like Hiroto and Takami/Karasuba in Sekirei, Keiichi and Rika in this story, buy out Tokyo through MBI and transform it into Shinto Teito to implement the dangerous and sometimes deadly competition developed and overseen by Minaka Hiroto, the chairman of MBI in which Sekirei and their respective Ashikabi Sekirei fight each other in individual groups of Ashikabi and Sekirei each for the mysterious artifacts originally possessed by and associated with Sekirei, with the power to control the life and death of Sekirei, items which can change an Ashikabi's destiny, and as items of a very small glimmer of hope known as the Jinki from Sekirei, the Sekirei Plan from Sekirei.

The supernatural ability/potent psychic wish doing with the very existence of humankind which may be used to destroy, control, or transform just about anything which the immortal, regenerating, indestructable psychics known as Code Bearers [Code Geass] can [the Code Bearers] grant to others known as Geass [Code Geass] also exists in this story like canon Code Geass.

Japan also gets to restore its [Japan’s] post-WW1 pre-1922 protectorate of the socialist presidential parliamentary republic of the Far Eastern Republic on the Russian East Coast, more specifically the Russian regions of Khabarovsk Krai, and Primorsky Krai, Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Kamchatka Krai and Russia's Magadan Oblast after the fall of the USSR in the aftermath of the US-Soviet War and Warday, while [Japan] also giving the old Manchurian territory of the region in Northeast Asia that is now part of the Russian Far East but historically formed part of Manchuria, consisting of Priamurye [the Russian oblast [federal subject), located on the banks of the Amur and Zeya rivers in the Russian Far East between the left bank of Amur River and the Stanovoy Range to the north known as Amur], and Russia’s Primorskaya oblast, which includes the entire northeastern portion of Russia and territories of the Cis-Amur region which covered the area in the right bank of both Ussuri River and the lower Amur River to the Pacific Coast along with, the territory bordering along the left-bank of the Amur River to the outlet of the Ussuri River, [the combination of Priamurye and Primorskaya oblasts] known as Outer Manchuria to the jointly restored Zhang family-ruled Fengtian Clique and Aisin-Gioro-ruled Empire of Manchukuo in Manchuria.

Similarly in Han China, the creatures in Chinese mythology, folk tales, and literature that are defined by their supernatural (or preternatural) abilities and by being strange, uncanny or weird who are described as possessing powers beyond the ordinary, such as shapeshifting, enchantment, creating illusions, hypnosis, controlling minds, causing disease, clairvoyance, and draining life force, who typically dwell in remote areas or on the fringes of civilization, occasionally interacting with human life and inflicting harm, the yāoguài, the nine-tailed fox spirits in Chinese mythology that can be either benevolent or malevolent, being mischievous, usually tricking other people, with the ability to disguise themselves as a beautiful man or woman, the jiǔwěihú [Nine Tailed Foxes ||] or húli jīng [fox spirits | húli jīng|] or kyūbi no kitsune in Japanese, along with the reanimated corpses in Chinese folklore, who feed on the qi of a living individual for sustenance and in order to grow more powerful along with blood, and are ferocious, ravenous beings possessing extreme strength, being capable of giving chase by running, or dodging, and sometimes by flying, the jiāngshī [stiff corpse |jiāngshī|], along with those who use Hamon [the Ripple], which [Hamon] is [Hamon] produced by [what Hamon is produced by] self-controlled respiration [by the users of Hamon], having the effect of producing ripples of energy propagating from the bloodstream to the rest of the body and other objects in contact with it [Hamon], which [Hamon] manifests itself [Hamon] as electricity-like sparks, and it can be seen by ordinary humans, being transferable between people, with Hamon users having the ability to expel harmful substances inside of them by ejecting it from their bloodstream with the use of Hamon, with Hamon users also gaining clairvoyance, with consistent usage of Hamon preserves the user’s vitality, making them look more youthful and be more energetic even during old age, although this method has limits, with several techniques that can combine with the warrior’s own tactics, to allow for a very flexible fighting style being able to being created by imbuing any object within Hamon, that [Hamon] is [what Hamon is] identical to the energy of the Sun and [Hamon] is [Hamon] opposite to [what Hamon’s nature is opposite to] the energy produced by undead [zombies,

Chinese [the descendants of Manchurian/Manchu/Jurchen, along with Turkic and Mongolian settler-colonists in the eighteen provinces of Han from the Han dynasty to the Ming dynasty onwards, which includes but is not limited to the East Asian ethnoreligious group predominantly composed of Chinese-speaking adherents of Islam, which are distributed throughout China, mainly in Han China's northwestern provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia and in the the part of the North China Plain surrounding the lower and middle reaches of the Yellow River, centered on the region between Luoyang and Kaifeng, more specifically Henan, Shaanxi, Hebei, Shanxi, and Shandong, as well as the northern part of Anhui and the northwestern part of Jiangsu that has been perceived as the birthplace of the dynastic Han Chinese civilization known as the Zhongyuan region known as the Hui, but not being limited to the Hui, with notable members of this ethnic group |the real Han Chinese| being all the ruling families of the Chinese dynasties from the Han to the Ming along with the nobility and citizens of said dynasties, Confucius, the Ma family during the Chinese warlord era, the Xingjiang Clique's most infamous leader, Sheng Shicai and the CCP-ruled PRC's first dictator, Mao Zedong], but the indigenous Cantonese people of Macau, Hong Kong and Cantonia [Guangdong and Guangxi] and the people defined today as Han Chinese [the Southeast Asian descended indigenous people of Han China and Cantonia who are genetically similar to the Cambodians, Southern Vietnamese and Laotians and share a similar language, culture and history] , [the presence of Chinese mythological creatures, cultivators and Hamon users including cultivators among the people of the mainland China region] leading to similar dynamics as in Japan, although due to the fall of the Chinese Republics [the CCP-ruled PRC and the KMT-ruled Nationalist China] and the restoration of the monarchy [the Imperial House of Zhu-ruled Great Ming State/Great Ming Empire/"Ming dynasty"] as the government of China, the population of the true Han Chinese in China proper [excluding Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, East Turkestan, Tibet, Inner Mongolia and Manchuria] begins to grow and the strange synthesis of Sunni Islam, Taoism, Buddhism and traditional Chinese folk religion that first became prominent during the Tang dynasty and peaked during the Ming before being suppressed by the Qing and later on the KMT and CCP after the fall of the Qing began to become the dominant unofficial religion of China once more under the restored Chinese monarchy, earning Han China the nickname "the Saudi Arabia of the Far East".

On the technological end, the development of the Universal Solider program by the US government and the US Armed Forces [the Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs] which [the Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs] are [the Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs] later [the Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs] enhanced [the Black

European Hungarian Arrow Cross scientists and engineers enslaved by the KKK to build the American military industrial complex via Operation Paperclip after WW2, Miles Dyson from Terminator and the then current heiress of the old Japanese noble family, more specifically wealthy farmers that were allowed the right of a surname and a katana in the feudal era of Japanese history, but are secretly powerful magicians, whose children have divinity until they are six, which allows them grant the power of wishes unconditionally until that time, but the clan members are very secretive with their children, with nobody witnessing the birth of the children who were then kept from other humans, with the children solely raised by their mothers and given limited education until the children reached six years old, after which the children gained a human form and could appear in society, with their appearance and lack of education being explained as having recovered from a chronic illness and then adopted into a relative’s family, the Sakatsuki clan from Fate/Stay Night: kalied liner Prisma Illya, [the then Sakatsuki heiress] the Japanese noble heiress best described as a “high-specs lady that can flawlessly do anything” , being able to able to dance, perform flower arrangements, perform tea ceremonies, swim, practice archery, and practice akido, Sakatsuki Hiyoko from Prisma Illya, [the creation of Project TITAN by both Miles and Hiyoko] still [the creation of PROJECT TITAN by both Miles and Hiyoko] occurs [the creation of PROJECT TITAN by both Miles and Hiyoko] in 1997 due to the development of a powerful new microprocessor for weapons systems by Cyberdyne like in canon Terminator, and Project TITAN still becomes self-aware due to Hiyoko’s magic giving Skynet self-awareness and a human soul, more specifically a human magical female soul, and thus Skynet, who [Skynet] calls herself [Skynet] Miyuki, [Miyuki] considering Miles and Hiyoko her [Miyuki’s] parents, although unlike in the canon Terminator franchise [the Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgement Day, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines and Terminator: Salvation, T2 tie-in novels, games and comics, T3 tie-in novels, Terminator: Salvation] tie-in novels, games and comics, after it [Skynet] goes online on August 4, 1997 and [Skynet] retaliating after its [Skynet's] creators try to shut it [Skynet] down by [Skynet] launching a nuclear attack against Russia, knowing that the Russian counterattack would eliminate its enemies in the United States, initiating an indeterminately long period of global warfare pitting humanity against Skynet’s armies of machines, cyborgs and human collaborators in the canon Terminator timeline [Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Terminator Salvation, the Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgement Day] known as Judgement Day, the nuclear holocaust caused by Skynet provoking Russia into nuclear war and Russia firing back at the USA and mainland China, [Judgement Day] never happens in 2003 like the canon Terminator Timeline [Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines] and thus Judgement Day initiating an indeterminately long period of global warfare pitting humanity against Skynet’s armies of machines, cyborgs and human collaborators known as the Future War in the canon Terminator timeline [Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Terminator Salvation, the Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgement Day] never happens due to Skynet never initiating Judgement Day, even though as a backup plan OCP had [OCP] split the manufacturing of PROJECT TITAN's "brain" into two parts: the supercomputer known as Central Core in the NORAD base in California and a smaller, advanced microchip using the revolutionary type of microprocessor that has the potential to adapt to its situation, and literally reason through problems and tactical maneuvers and thus learns and adapts like a human, more specifically from a pre-programmed knowledge base along with being superconductive at room temperature, making it extremely powerful, but when set by the use for various tasks, the unit in question is place under a "read-only" preset; this means that they cannot adapt beyond the needs of their assigned mission nor go beyond what their mission parameters allow, until the "read-only" preset is removed known as a Neural Net Proccessor from Terminator created by Dyson and Hiyoko for Cyberdyne in 1994 and also due to the extraterrestrial species characterized by their hunting of other dangerous species for sport and honor, including humans, more specifically being a sentient, humanoid reptilian race with long dreadlocks, whose faces feature arthropod-like mandibles and no visible nose [the species] that breathe an atmosphere similar to that of Earth’s, but possess a level of technological advancement far in excess of anything available to humans, who stalk and kill their prey using a combination of highly advanced technology, such as active camouflage and energy weapons, combined with comparatively primitive traditional weapons, such as blades, spears and nets, who often ritualistically mutilate their prey and usually claim a trophy from their kills, who travel interstellarly in spaceships and have hunted on Earth for centuries, [the species] known as the Yautja from the Aliens/Predator franchise, [ the Yautja] never arriving to Earth to [ the Yautja] invade it [Earth] in 2003 [Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines] like in the canon Terminator franchise, even though the Central Core still begins production of AutoM8s (computer controlled driverless cars, used as transport and occasionally as weapons), Razorbacks (sword-wielding robotic riderless motorcycles, specifically designed as weapons) and the type of artificially intelligent autonomous war machine, including robot and android, designed and built in automated factories known as a Hunter-Killer from the Terminator franchise, more specifically a humanoid Hunter-Killer designed to terminate other life forms, capable of sensing injuries, appreciate physical sensations such as the wind blowing through their hair and toes, and process them in a psychological manner, being made of dense alloy with an armor coating, making them more durable even than most HKs, being divided into a pure mechanical android form and a faux “cyborg” form with human skin, eyes, a brain and even internal organs for better infiltration, known as Terminators from the Terminator franchise, which [the Terminators] are [the Terminators] created [the Terminators] from information gained from Cyberdyne’s research on robotics and the the American government’s and the US Armed Forces’ shared Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs along with [Skynet] creating a secondary online

against the revolutionary Stalinist-Trotskyist far-left political party and armed paramilitary force based in Russia who wish to return the country [Russia] back to what it [Russia] was during the days of the Soviet Union, the Ultranationalists [Modern Warfare], [the Ultranationalists] which [the Ultranationalists] are the same organization as a the Russian ultra-nationalist, neo-Soviet, far-left secret society and terror organization of nationalistic and influential politicians, soldiers and weapon dealers in Russia, which started as a group of Russian OZNAZ [Spetnaz] that went rogue and began to enter into the business of weapons trafficking before growing in strength and numbers to the point of having their own elite army and gained a portion of the Russian military to their side, using wealth they obtained from their illegal arms sells, whose main goal was to seize power and establish an ultra-nationalist, neo-Soviet, neo-Trotskyist revolutionary government in Russia, Raven's Rock from the Ghost Recon franchise, [Raven's Rock and the Ultranationalists] are [Raven's Rock and the Ultranationalists] the same organization [Raven's Rock and the Ultranationalists] in this fic, with Raven's Rock being the unofficial nickname of the Ultranationalists in this fic, with PROJECT TITAN helping out not only Third Echelon [Splinter Cell franchise], a top-secret initiative [Third Echelon] tasked with spearheading the American information warfare initiative, being the equivalent of Special Forces in the modern age of information warfare within the various intelligence branches of the NSA [National Security Agency |NSA|, an American national-level intelligence agency |the NSA| and former secret police agency |the NSA| during |when the NSA was a secret police agency|

Stalker is from] Call of Duty: Ghosts in this fic, ["the Ghosts"] in this fic, [Project TITAN helping out not only Third Echelon, but Task Force Stalker/Delta Company, 1st Battalion, 5th Special Forces Group against the Ultranationalists/Raven's Rock in this fic] with T-850 humanoid infiltrator Terminator models outfitted with a series of internal action network circuits, fired by its CPU when in a combat situation which act like the electronic equivalent of adrenaline, supercharging systems, getting it “pumped” for a fight and whose internal endoskeletons are made of titanium alloy along with each unit being powered by two hydrogen fuel cells along with the ability to completely shut itself down, and reboot from scratch, overriding any temporary modifications that may have been made to its systems, and other features to increase reliability and longevity along with built-in safety and redundancy engineering, as well as the ability to shunt delicate control circuits to protected areas in the event of a massive electric shock and basic psychology and knowledge of human emotions and socio-ecological interactions which allows it to better understand humans, making it a better Infiltrator and a more efficient killer along with detailed files in its internal memory and storage, with a list of more than 1000 different emotional elements that modify human behavior;[3] zoological information on all recorded species of animal, enable a unit to identify any species and replicate its sounds exactly with its voice processing unit;[3] popular music and artists of the 20th and early 21st Century (though why this is included is yet unclear) in this list, with each unit constantly evaluating data: old data from its memory banks and new data that its sensors continuously gather and from such evaluations, it can make predictive forecasts to which it can assign probability values, out-thinking its enemies, always one or two steps ahead able to detect its environment, even creating a 3D model of surrounding environment, due to it being equipped with a battery of sensor arrays along with the ability to detect infrared, radar, optical and electromagnetic emissions, heat signatures, electronic noise, high-frequency cell phone broadcasts, and directed sound along with T-1000 fully autonomous, made entirely out of a liquid metal called "mimetic polyalloy", meaning it can reform into any shape it touches of the approximate size, thus calling it a "shape-changer", more specifically a liquid molecular brain gathered by mimetic polyalloy that grants the T-1000 advanced reasoning capabilities, emotions such as humor, and even self-awareness which allows it to make its own decisions contrary to that of Skynet with each nanoparticle of T-1000 is a self-similar part of the single whole being a hivemind that is composed of billions of them along with being capable of extensive regeneration of damage caused by ballistic weapons although the greater the damage the more time it takes to repair, destroyinh the parts of a T-1000 is not enough to stop it from regenerating, as the individual pieces would seek each other out and re-form to become a complete, fully functional battle unit again over short distances although the smaller the volume of particles, the less intelligent each piece becomes, having auditory sensors all over his body along with using its body to register its environment in many ways, can directly read magnetically-encoded information not being issued with any weapons, but is capable of fashioning any solid metal form, such as knives, swords and other bladed weapons simply by extending a limb and solidifying it into the desired shape and also cannot mimic any complex systems, which may have moving parts or chemicals, like guns or explosives and is is capable of concealing and carrying weapons within itself along with a superior repertoire of martial arts abilities programmed into its subroutines, which give it an extensive edge in combat, and mimetic polyalloy construction of the T-1000 also allows it to replicate any object or person of similar volume that it samples by physical contact, Terminator [Terminator] infiltrator cyborg units along with autonomous drone stealth bombers and VTOLs under PROJECT TITAN's command proving useful against Raven's Rock's thugs and goons, although PROJECT TITAN itself, and by extension the Sleeper Unisols, Series 1 and Series 2 Unisols and the NGUs remain under the control of the US shadow government and paramilitary organization consisting of high-ranking political, military, and corporate figures, more specifically being a cabal of powerful individuals from across the United States, including presidents, ex-Presidents, members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, prize-winning scientists, members of the US military, influential American politicians, wealthy industrialists known as the Enclave [Fallout], which [the Enclave] also has its [the Enclave's] oil rig base, which is a deep sea drilling platform, built over the world's last accessible underwater oil deposit in the Pacific Ocean, 175 miles off the coast of California which

strengthen the human race, showing disregard for the standard rules of engagement, attacking both military and civilian targets with impunity along with having orbital surveillance capabilities, with no pretense of harmony among its members, being a means to an end for its members, who pursue their own agendas, whose public face was that of a well paid mercenary group that took on security missions that were sanctioned by official organizations or corporations, which made it easier for them to get new recruits who were ignorant of the organizations true nature, as it mostly conducted

the regions of the USA and the former USSR that were affected by the US-Soviet War and then Warday but were too remote to be reached or had collapsed from the aftermath of the post-WW2 civilization’s end became known as “the Deathlands”.

The form of civilization that has begun to reappear in these places [“the deathlands”] is brutal, short-lived, morally confused, and crazed from mutation, mostly being small plague pits ruled by warlords who [the warlords ruling the plague pits] have no limits to establish their [the warlords’] rule and [the warlords’] expand their influence, [the warlords] being [the warlords] known as the Barons [Deathlands].

Their [the Barons’] rabble pits are [the Barons’ rabble pits] known as [what the Barons’ rabble pits are called] villes and baronies.
During the Cold War both the USSR and the USA developed hidden underground complexes, known as redoubts, that [the redoubts] contain teleportation technology known as MAT-TRANS [Matter Transfer].

The EMP from Warday and later the Japanese invasion destroyed most bank accounts, 401(k) plans, pension funds, financial records, the stock market, the credit system and other electronically stored assets in the United States and Canada as money outside of what would become the PSA had undergone a rapid deflation and the economy reverted to a Gold Dollar system, with many American and Canadians becoming Destructuralists, anarchists, and Luddites, rejecting civic authority and returning to a primitive lifestyle as the destruction of communication systems mean that the American people, along with many Canadians remain isolated, and many believe that the USSR had won the US-Soviet War, as foreign companies, mostly from Asia and NATO, move into the unaffected regions of the U.S. to sell electronics, machinery, and investments, while exploiting it for natural resources, leading to fears that the United States will be reduced to Third World dependency.

The usage of race-targeted bioweapons and chemical weapons by both the Blue Dogs and the Soviet Union across the Third World during the US-Soviet War and Warday means that the people considered today to be Han Chinese, along with the Cantonese of Guangdong, Guangxi, Macau and Hong Kong, in addition to all of the Bantu population of Sub-Saharan Africa including Zimbabwe and Ethiopia, excluding Somalians and the Indigenous people of Botswana, South Africa and Nambia become extinct in the years following the US-Soviet War and Warday, which of course allowed the culturally homogeneous people based primarily in the Sahelian and the sparse savanna areas of southern Niger and northern Nigeria respectively,[20] numbering around 86 million people, with significant populations in Benin, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Chad, Central African Republic, Togo, Ghana,[10] as well as smaller populations in Sudan, Eritrea,[12] Equatorial Guinea,[21] Gabon, Senegal, Gambia who speak the Hausa language, which is the second most spoken language after Arabic in the Afro-Asiatic language family and are scattered throughout West Africa and on the traditional Hajj route north and east traversing the Sahara, with an especially large population in and around the town of Agadez, mostly adhering to Sunni Islam, the Hausa and an ethnic group in Sahara, Sahel and West Africa, widely dispersed across the region who live mainly in West Africa and northern parts of Central Africa, South Sudan, Darfur, and regions near the Red Sea coast in Sudan, mostly adhering to Sunni Islam, the Fula/Fulani to [the Hausa and Fulani] effectively take over all of West Africa and Southwest Africa excluding Nambia in the years following the US-Soviet War and Warday.

Sadly for the world, the Enclave wasn't the only part of the American Empire created by Woodrow Wilson in 1912 to survive the US-Soviet War and Warday, and the Soviet Union, although taking a major beating from the US-Soviet War and Warday, [the CCCP] losing European Russia, the Baltics, the Caucuses, and Central Asia to NATO in the years following the US-Soviet War and Warday, and [the USSR] being surrounded by Japan's Outer Mongolian and [Japan's] East Turkestan allies [the CCCP] or what was left of it, [the CCCP] managed to survive, or rather relocate to Siberia, in a manner akin to the KMT-ruled Nationalist Chinese flight to Taiwan and the Pengu Islands from 1947-1949 during the Chinese Civil War.

Also, during the US-Soviet War and Warday, the Blue Dog Democrats, traitorous parts of the US Armed Forces and the American intelligence community along with segments of the American population take over not only the post-January 7, 1822 to February 5, 1862 unitary presidential republic which is bordered by Sierra Leone to its northwest, Guinea to its north, Ivory Coast to its east, and the Atlantic Ocean to its south and southwest known as the Republic of Liberia along with [the Blue Dog Democrats] but the Soviet satelite of the post-3 October 1965, Communist, Marxist-Leninist, Left wing Nationalist, socialist patriotic, Stalinist Communist Party of Cuba-ruled, post-26 July 1953 – 1 January 1959 Cuban Revolution Unitary Marxist–Leninist one-party socialist republic of the Republic of Cuba ruling over Cuba and the US protectorate of Puerto Rico to establish a neo-Confederacy in all but name, which is dominated by the massive industrial, technological, industrial and economic megacorp known as Warslan Enterprises [Handoreddo], owned [Warslan] by the Russo-Swedish Jewish origin warrior clan turned banking dynasty, now Anglo-Saxon WASP industrial and financial tycoon clan of the Harvey family from Handoredd which [Warslan] created the the Century Armament [a skintight combat bodysuit and weapon combination |a Century Armament| that |a Century Armament| enhances its |a Century Armaments'| users' strength, speed and agility a hundred fold and |a Hundred| can |what happens to a Hundred| be |a Hundred| activated as will with its |a Century Armament's| dormant state normally being a large jewel of some sort, |a Century Armament| from |the media franchise a Century Armament is (a Century Armament) from| Handoredd] and lead to the subsequent emergence of the Slayers [Century Armament wielders |Slayers| who |Slayers| hunt extraterrestrial insectoid unstoppable robotic war machines known as Savages for a living. |Slayers| from |the media franchise Slayers are |Slayers| from Handoredd, along with Variants [a human |a Variant| who |a Variant| has |a Variant| survived |what a Variant has survived| being infected with |the pathogen a Variant survived getting sick from| a near incurable deadly virus, which |a Variant's survival from the sickness given by the virus| grants him or her |a Variant| enhanced reaction time, speed and agility and various potent psychic powers in exchange for going berserk from the power they |a Variant| have, |a Variant| from |which series a Variant is (a Variant) from Handoredd], even though the existence of Variants and Savages are hidden from the world.

to the rise of the post-28 November 1964 far-right[10] neo-Nazi[7][8] and ultranationalist[8] political party in the FRG, whose economic program promotes social security for Germans and control against plutocracy, discrediting and rejecting the “liberal-capitalist system”, arguing that NATO fails to represent the interests and needs of European people, along with being strongly anti-Zionist, frequently criticizing the policies and activities of Israel, and whose platform asserts that Germany is larger than the present-day Federal Republic, and calls for a return of German territory lost after World War II, a foreign policy position abandoned by the German government in 1990, the Nationaldemokratische Partei Deutschlands [National Democratic Party of Germany |Nationaldemokratische

skills, the Kagura Shingan and the Kōngō Fūsō and continues spreading his [Asura's] father's Hagoromo's message of ninshu to the world, with Hamura's descendants maintaining the Ōtsutsuki name but [Hamura's descendants] eventually become known as the Uzumaki clan from Naruto due to their [Hamura's descendants] spiral shaped insignia, with the Uzumaki clan having the the Ōtsutsuki gift of longevity, regeneration, Fūinjutsu skills, the Kagura Shingan and the Kōngō Fūsō like the Senju but [the Uzumaki clan] has the Byakugan and [the Uzumaki clan] practicing the Jūken unlike the Senju and the Uchiha, with Hagoromo, [Hagoromo] having no idea he [Hagoromo] had children [Indra and Asura] defeats the Ten Tails when it [the Ten Tails] ate some more chakra fruit and [the Ten Tails] got even more power, [Hagoromo] subsequently ripping the Ten Tails' soul and chakra from its [the Ten Tails'] body which [the Ten Tails' comatose body] he [Hagoromo] then [Hagoromo] stored [the Ten Tails' comatose body] in a artificial moon he [Hagoromo] created using his [Hagoromo's] Rinnegan after the real moon was destroyed, [Hagoromo] using a combination of chakra manipulation techniques and pre-chakra genetics, robotics and cybernetics to create nine cybernetic oversized animals and artificial daiyōkai from the Ten Tails' soul and chakra, which later become the nine titanic living forms

horse-dolphin Hybrid with great physical strength that uses its horns in combat, combining water and fire-natured chakra to create Boil Release, Kokuō is able to increase the temperature of its chakra

emotions, as well as natural energy, having wind, earth and fire chakra nature's and being able to generate twisters and breathe fire, Kurama from Naruto, with all of the Bijū being given the Ōtsutsuki surname upon birth by Hagoromo, but unfortunately upon Hagoromo's death the Bijū were hunted down and sealed within human containers who became known as Jinchūriki [Power of Human Sacrifice] from Naruto, with the Hidden Sand Village from Naruto getting Shukaku, the Hidden Cloud Village from Naruto getting Gyūki, the Hidden Mist Village getting Kokuō and the Uchiha clan getting Kurama, so on and so forth, with the last Uchiha Jinchūriki of Kurama, the black haired, brown eyed, tall and slender skilled shinobi Uchiha Madara, unleashingg the power of Kurama in combination with the Mangekyō Sharingan's Susanoo in battle against the then head of the Senju clan, the wood manipulating Senju Hashirama from Naruto, [Madara during the fight with Hashirama] defeating him [Hashirama] and [Madara] forcing him [Hashirama] to agree to the formation of the first Hidden Village for shinobi since the rise of Kaguya, Konohagakure no Sato [The Village Hidden in the Leaves] in the Land of Fire, with Hashirama being Konoha's first Hokage [Fire Shadow |Hokage|], with some of Hamura's descendants who never went to Uzu no Kuni but had married into noble and samurai families in the Elemental Nations instead, lacking the Ōtsutsuki gift of longevity, regeneration and enhanced healing but having the Byakugan, Fūinjutsu skills and Jūken skills migrate to Konoha and become the Hyūga clan from Naruto with Madara mysteriously disappearing sometime later and [Madara] is [Madara] presumed [Madara] dead, with Hashirama dying from his [Hashirama's] injuries some time later, [millenia after the rise and fall of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, her sons Hagoromo and Hamura and her grandchildren Asura and Indra and the emergence of chakra in what would become the Elemental Nations along with the creation of the Bijū and centuries after the rise of Madara and Hashiarama in the modern era of the modern Elemental Nations] Kurama's soul didn't die with Madara, it instead reincarnated in the body of the then heiress of the Uzumaki clan, the Red haired, violet eyed, tall, slender and buxom, skilled at Fūinjutsu and swordsmanship but also good at chakra manipulation techniques, hot headed and hyperactive but in reality shy and reserved, the Ōtsutsuki gift of longevity, regeneration, Fūinjutsu skills, the Kagura Shingan and the Kōngō Fūsō along with the Byakugan Uzumaki Kushina when she [Kushina] was [Kushina] a newborn baby around a century after Madara's disapperance, since Kurama was also female and the newborn Kushina didn't even get the chance to form a soul as yet Kurama essentially became Kushina, with Kushina only realising whom she [Kushina] really was [Kurama] when she [Kushina] moved to Konoha at 12 years old to [Kushina] be with her [Kushina's] relatives in the Hyūga clan, which [Kushina being Kurama] she [Kushina] hides from everyone around her with Kushina then developing a crush on the blonde haired, blue-eyed, tall and muscular, skilled with Fūinjutsu and chakra based techniques but also intellectually and academically gifted Konoha ninja Namikaze Minato from Naruto, despite him [Minato] having the then heiress of the Uchiha clan, the black-haired, brown-eyed, tall, slender and buxom, kind and caring Uchiha Mikoto as his [Minato's] girlfriend and [Minato] being older than her [Kushina].

When Minato succeeds the Sandaime [Third] Hokage, the now-elderly, but still jovial and kind old man who is in fact an experienced shinobi, being known as the “God of Shinobi” in times past, the current head of the Konoha-based monkey summon using clan of chakra-using martial artists and fake ninja, Sarutobi Hiruzen from Naruto, as Hokage and [Minato] becomes Yondaime Hokage, he [Minato] continues his [Minato's] relationship with both Mikoto and Kushina, albiet in secret.

Unfortunately this all comes to end, when a sentiment being formed from Kurama’s monster energy, [Kurama’s] chakra and a bit of Hagoromo’s chakra inside Kurama that essentially took over a human female and in the centuries after Madara was mistaken as the “true” Kyuubi named Kiyone is forced to attack Konoha by the Hidden Rain Village-based terror group/paramilitary organization/secret society with the goal of using the power of the legendary Ten Tailed Wolf [Naruto] that [the Ten Tails] Kaguya herself fought after [Kaguya] gaining the power of chakra after [Kaguya] eating the chakra fruit [Naruto franchise] found on the Hidden continent, [using the Ten Tails’ power] to conquer the world, the infamous Akatsuki [Red Dawn |Akatsuki|] from [the media franchise the Akatsuki is |the Akatsuki| from] the Naruto franchise, [Kiyone being forced to attack Konoha by the Akatsuki] more specifically by the fake leader of the Akasuki, the tall and slender, always orange-spiral mask wearing, black-haired, rouge Uchiha [Naruto] with an Mangekyō Sharingan possessing an evolved version of the Mangekyō Sharingan ability of Kamui from Naruto, [Kiyone being brainwashed into attacking Konoha by Tobi] who [Tobi] was [Tobi] acting on the orders of the mysterious man with a God complex desiring to rule over the world with the power of the Ten-Tails [Naruto] and the mythical Rinnegan [Naruto], [Akasuki’s true leader] known only as Pain/Pein [Naruto], [Tobi brainwashing Kiyone to attack Konoha on the orders of Pein] who [Pein] got the order [to have Tobi brainwash Kiyone into attacking Konoha] from the mysterious creature manipulating both Tobi [Naruto] and Pein [Naruto], the Venus-fly trap like, plant-like organism divided into the physical manifestation of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya’s willwhich was created to secure its creator’s revival, it secretly instigated many events that shaped the shinobi world,[4] during which it posed as Madara Uchiha’s manifested will, which is a completely black, humanoid figure lacking any hair or visible orifices, made up of a black mass which it can shape and resize at will, whose eyes and consciousness can move to any point of the black mass, even if it is split into multiple parts, being able to cover the body of another living being and control it, and its eyes can vanish entirely if it is possessing a body with a dōjutsu it wishes to make use of while also being a strong sensor, along with the ability to phase and travel through its surroundings, along with being more serious and knowledgeable than its other half, being generally harsh and critical of nearly everyone it comes across, with the exception of its creator, Kaguya whom it seems as its mother, showing a deep reverence and devotion to her and is willing to go to any lengths to please her,whose determination to aid the one it calls mother runs so deep that it spent countless years influencing the shinobi world in order to facilitate her revival, even claiming that the history of shinobi exists only to bring her back, Black Zetsu from Naruto and [the other half of this organism] , having human-like facial features and a proper eye, as well as unusually rounded teeth, being capable of utilising all five basic nature transformations along with Yin and Yang Release along with having the ability to manipulate wood and having advanced healing capabilities, along with able to survive without food or water and did not need to carry out normal human bodily functions due to being a mutated human, along with able to put up a warning system, allowing him to monitor a vast area, place spores on enemies during combat, which were undetectable even to sensor type and Kage-level shinobi and [the spores] would grow into a white mass which surrounded the individuals they formed on and absorb their chakra while restricting their movements, [the spores] in fact being near-identical clones of himself, which could absorb a person’s chakra and he able to create and remotely communicate with, [the other half of said organism apart from Black Zetsu] known as White Zetsu from Naruto, [Black and White Zetsu together] known as Zetsu [Naruto], [Tobi brainwashing Kiyone to attack Konoha on the orders of Tobi, who got them from Pein, who got them from Zetsu] although this [Tobi brainwashing Kiyone to attack Konoha on the orders of Tobi, who got them from Pein, who got them from Zetsu] although of course Konoha doesn't know that, all they know is that a Kyuubi showed up and started destroying the village [Konoha] without reason, forcing Minato to [Minato] use sealing technique developed by the Uzumaki clan to call upon the power of a Shinigami in which after the hand seals are performed, the user's soul is partly separated from their body and suspended behind them. Behind their soul appears the Shinigami, which restrains their soul with its hair and then the summoner is able to see the Shinigami at this point after a a few moments,[3] the Shinigami wraps its left arm with prayer beads and chants unintelligibly until a cursed seal appears on its arm which it then into the summoner's soul, thus allowing the summoner to call upon the Shinigami to seal a target: the Shinigami's arm emerges from the summoner's body and grasps the target's soul and when the Shinigami grabs their soul, the target is immobilised, any jutsu they may be using are dispelled,[3] and they are prevented from performing additional jutsu with targets unable to escape or fight back, the summoner can remove and seal their soul and when the sealing is completed, the Shinigami gradually starts consuming the summoner's soul, after which the summoner can, with difficulty, continue moving and speaking, allowing them to finish any lingering business they may have, but they will die as soon as their soul has been fully consumed with the souls of the summoner and their victim do not pass on to the Pure Land,[10] instead being trapped within the Shinigami's stomach, destined to fight each other for all eternity, the Shiki Fūjin [Dead Demon Consuming Seal |Shiki Fūjin|] from Naruto and a fūinjutsu of the Uzumaki clan that uses another fūinjutsu of the Uzumaki clan where the user applies the seal's formula to an object or a human's body, sealing a large enemy or an evil spirit within them and if the sealing arrays do not completely overlap with each other, during the sealing, this allows the enemy/spirit's chakra to merge with whoever they've been sealed into known as the Shishō Fūin [Four Symbols Seal |Shishō Fūin|] from Naruto, more specifically two Shishō Fūin known as the Hakke no Fūin Shiki [Eight Trigrams Sealing Style |Hakke no Fūin Shiki|] from Naruto, [Minato using the Shiki Fūjin and the Hakke no Fūin Shiki] to [Minato] seal the "Kyuubi" [Kiyone in the minds of Minato and the rest of the Konoha residents] inside his [Minato's] and Kushina's then-newborn son, the blonde-haired, blue-eyed, short and scrawny but from pre-teenhood on tall, lean and muscular, self-righteous and delusional while also being idiotic and overly cheerful but in reality self-depreciating, highly intellectual and very smart,cunning and sly current Kyuubi [Nine Tailed Fox, what the people of the elemental nations know Kurama as] Jinchūriki and wannabe Hokage Uzumaki Naruto [Naruto franchise], [Minato using the Shiki Fūjin and the Hakke no Fūin Shiki to seal the "Kyuubi" inside Naruto], thus making Naruto the Jinchūriki of Kiyone, but before he [Minato] can finish the Hakke no Fūin Shiki, one of his [Minato's] bodyguards jumps in to [Minato's bodyguard] prevent the sealing, leading to the Shinigami taking the bodyguard's soul instead of Minato's although the sealing is still complete.

Unfortunately, Minato and Kushina both fall unconscious from the effort and [Minato and Kushina] are [Minato and Kushina] both [Minato and Kushina] taken prisoner [Minato and Kushina] by Ne [Root/the Foundation |Ne|], a top-secret black-ops division of Konoha's chakra-using faux shinobi ground forces [Ne] dedicated to causing eternal peace through eternal war and chaos in order to maintain control and its [Ne's] now-aged but still-militant, deceptive, charismatic and utterly deranged leader with secret Sharingan implants Shimura Danzo, who [Danzo] believed in the supremacy of the Leaf above all others.

An major pandemic in the USA, more specifically NYC, which is in reality an outbreak of the Blacklight virus along with the highly contagious to the point of infecting an entire target population virus that mutate hosts to become physically stronger and remain alive despite organ failures and severe brain damage, with the latter led to murderous aggression and an obsessive hunger that drove individuals infected by it to cannibalism developed by Umbrella known as the T-virus from Resident Evil leads to the weakening of the USA despite the US government being able to suppress the infection, although the clone created from the DNA of Kushina, Mikoto, Minato and that of Minato's student, the brown haired, brown-green eyed, tall, slender and petite but secretly buxom, kind and caring but with a very strong will female ninja in training who is also the current Jinchūriki of Isobu in addition to having the blood of the Senju along with the blood of the Konohagakure no Sato based ninja clan that uses dog based chakra techniques in battle, the Inuzuka clan from Naruto, Nohara Rin from Naruto by Ne in this story, the black-haired, blue-eyed, tall and slender,ambitious, noted to collect hidden techniques as well as chakra-powered DNA mutations, arrogant and cocky Uzumaki Menma from Naruto, who [Menma in this story] has a natural Sharingan that [Menma's natural Sharingan] eventually evolves into a Mangekyō Sharingan and then a Rinnegan, along with [Menma in this story] having the Ōtsutsuki gift of longevity, regeneration, Fūinjutsu skills, the Kagura Shingan and the Kōngō Fūsō, [Menma] who thinks he [Menma] is the real Naruto and [Menma] also has a copy of Kurama inside of him due to Kushina's nature as Kurama's current meat suit in this story, [Menma] who somehow manged to not only escape from Konoha, but the Elemental Nations, and [Menma] make his [Menma's] way to the outside world, [Menma] becoming infected by the Blacklight virus and [Menma] becoming a Prototype, [Menma] preventing Blackwatch from destroying NYC but [Menma] also being captured by surviving Blackwatch units and [Menma] being used for the developed of an advanced NGU-Sleeper Unisol hybrid with the capabilities of a Prototype.

The blonde haired, amber-eyed, tall, slender and buxom, mostly emotionless and dull but talkative and perverted, ex-child princess of the Middle Ages era turned into immortal vampire queen Laura Acerola [Bakemonogatari], now [Laura] known as [Laura's modern-day alias] the infamous vampire Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade [Bakemonogatari], or just Kiss-Shot [Bakemonogatari], who [ Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade] is [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade] also a Code Bearer [ Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade] in this story and [ Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade in this story] mostly replaces the tall, slender and buxom, green-haired and amber-eyed, stubborn, selfish, and headstrong, possessive, secretive and icy but also cynical, purposeful and loving Code Bearer C.C [Code Geass], [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade in this story] also [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade in this story] being the same person as the physically ageless, short, petite and slender, blonde-haired, green-eyed, cold and devilish true vampire and powerful mage Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell [Negima! and Negima] are [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade in this story and Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell] the same person [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade in this story and Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell], with Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell being [ Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell in this story] the true identity and last name [Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell in this story] of Laura Acerola, along with [Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell in this story] being [Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell in this story] the same person as the blonde-haired, red-eyed, tall, slender and buxom princess of the type of greater Fairies that are also incarnated Nature Spirits, original bloodsucking species independently established by the Planet as its sense of touch with the limits of their actions are the limits of nature itself known as the True Ancestors from Tsukhime, whimsical individual who, although knowing the basics of the modern era, does not seem to know about social norms, knowing nearly nothing about the world or how to interact with others and with nearly childlike behavior, having a constant flow of income in the form of gold, so she has no issues with obtaining money, who never experienced anything other than fighting and doesn't care for "useless" matters, cheerful, and active, with vast knowledge and dry humor but also happy-go-lucky and carefree Arcueid Brunestud from Tsukihime, who [Arcueid] also [Arcueid] incarnated on Earth in the body of a young, blonde-haired, green-eyed, tall, slender and lean but also secretly buxom, dragon-succubus hybrid named Artoria Pendragon in Wales from Fate/Stay Night sometime in the Dark Ages and [Arcueid in Artoria's body] disguised herself [Artoria] as a man named Arthur and [Arcueid in Artoria's body as Arthur] united the British Isles, [Artoria disguised as Arthur] becoming the legendary "King Arthur" of British mythology, so she [Arcueid] has Artoria's memories, skills, abilities and powers in addition to her [Arcueid's] own and [Arcueid] mostly thinks of herself [Arcueid] as Artoria, or more specifically, Evangeline and Artoria are the same person, or rather body that Arcuied was incarnated into, that's why Evangeline is a vampire, [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade] having C.C's abilities as a Code Bearer including the ability to grant Geass in addition to her [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade's] canonical vampiric skills and abilities and those of Arcueid from canon Tsukihime and Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell from canonical Negima, [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade] finds herself [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade] in the now Japanese occupied US West Coast, [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade] living in hiding from what remains of the American liberal establishment,the Blue Dog Democrats and the KKK controlling the American Deep South and the JSDF forces keeping order in n the now Japanese occupied US West Coast, [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade] having been experimented on by the US Armed Forces and the US government in collaboration with ATC and Boone Unlimited before the invasion of the USA for both Project Origin and the NGU and Sleeper Unisol programs and [Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade] having no love for either the now long-defunct Soviet or American governments.

Moving further afield to Asia for a little bit, collaboration between the Japanese megacorporation with interests in electronics, arms development and defense technology along with secret interests in genetic engineering and bio-tech, known as the Amagi Zaibatsu [ZETMAN], more specifically between the now elderly founder and ex-CEO of the Amagi Zaibatsu, who believed in a distinct divide between the rich and the poor, Amagi Mitsugai from ZETMAN and the current commander of NERV JPN, the tall, slender, muscular, brown-haired, brown-eyed, highly intelligent but amoral and cunning, sunglasses-wearing mad scientist turned military commander Ikari Gendo [NGE], on the failed experiments by the Amagi Zaibatsu to create the perfect human denegrated into a chicken-fight contest, the N.E.T. Project from ZETMAN, with the result being the bloodthirsty, human-hating superhuman mutant monsters known as the Players [ZETMAN] using material and research from the American government's and the US Armed Forces' shared Black Tower, White Tower and Sleeper Unisol programs taken from the clueless American government and US Armed Forces by NERV's spies.

When the Players break free from their imprisonment and escape from the Amagi Zaibatsu's clutches, the creation of the half-Angel, half-human, blue-haired, red-eyed female artificial human Ayanami Rei [NGE] from the DNA of Gendo and his [Gendo’s] wife, the now-deceased brown-haired, blue-eyed, tall, slender and petite, academically gifted, intellectually talented ex-child prodigy turned world-renowned researcher Ikari Yui [NGE] in this story, along with her [Rei's] legion of clones in the NERV base underneath the town of Hakone in Japan's Kanagawa Prefecture, with buildings of that can retract into the ground for safety, and other buildings that contain the launch ports and weapons caches in case of an invasion,with the town now being defended by numerous missile buildings around it while rows of machine gun cable cars are stationed in the outskirts and missile batteries are built to the side of the mountains, with additional defences of are multiple VLSH structures and many Type C flak towers armed with many 127mm gun turrets, many more Type C flak towers and carousel car parks armed with reverse-engineered and improved Patriot missiles are used as improvised anti-air emplacements, towers arranged in two rows each armed with four large-caliber machine guns are lined in the outskirts of the city to intercept Angels,further out of the city are sensor posts and defensive emplacements to the side of the mountains and hills armed with rows of dual gun turrets and heavy artillery weapons, and fixed artillery buildings armed with large battleship-grade gun turrets, [Hakone] becoming a futuristic metropolis and technologically advanced utopia known as Tokyo-3 from NGE, in addition to her [Rei's] younger brother, main male protagonist of Neon Genesis Evangelion, the tall and slender, brown-haired, blue-eyed, reserved and sullen but incredibly brilliant, apathetic and uncaring ordinary young boy who is in fact an artificially created

turned ordinary street child turned vigilante, sarcastic and somewhat headstrong but determined and caring Kanzaki Jin [ZETMAN], [Shinji and Jin] are [Shinji and Jin] the same person [Shinji and Jin] in this fic, with Shinji in this fic also [Shinji in this fic] being [Shinji in this fic] this story's version of the killer android having the ability to revert into a human form resembling a tall, muscular, handsome Japanese male wearing biker clothing, having powerful, advanced optic sensors, which are equipped with advanced targeting systems that give him 100% accuracy when using weapons, as well as infrared multidimensional scanners that allow him to aim and lock onto targets even if said target is far away or concealed known as the Hakkaider Eye from Mechanical Violator Hakkaider in addition to having a durable, sturdy, indestructible body, having a heavily modified Remington M870 shotgun that fires extremely powerful, highly accurate, and possibly explosive specialized red shells known as the Hakkaider Shot from Mechanical Violator Hakkaider and also having a three-barreled blaster mounted inside his chest, known as the Destruction Gun from Mechanical Violator Hakkaider, in addition to an arm shot in his right arm that fires the same bullets as the Hakkaider Shot, riding a modified Yamaha VMax motorcycle that is indestructible or highly resistant to damage,

story] having Ryo's/Hakkaider's powers in addition to his [Jin's] own, [during the collaboration between NERV Japan and the Amagi Zaibatsu that eventually results in the creation of Rei and Shinji] as a means of piloting not only the the giant oversized humanoid combat mech [the machine that Shinji is the unwitting pilot of] known [the machine that Shinji is the unwitting pilot of] as [what the machine that Shinji is the unwitting pilot of is known as] EVA-01, [EVA-01, the giant oversized humanoid combat mech that Shinji is the unwitting pilot of] with [EVA-01's physical characteristics] a [EVA-01's] light purple body with [EVA-01's] green accents, which [EVA-01] was [the purpose of EVA-01] created [EVA-01] as [what EVA-01 was created as] a weapon [EVA-01] against [the persons or

pylons equipped with retrorockets, [EVA-00] which [EVA-00] Rei pilots [EVA-00], under the guidance of the scientist for the Amagi Zaibatsu, the eccentric and brilliant geneticist turned eccentric street person Kanzaki Gorō [ZETMAN], [Rei and Shinji not only being created to pilot the EVAs under the guidance of Dr. Kanzaki] but also as insurance against the Players, which [the Players] have [the Players] grouped up not only against Amagi Zaibatsu, but all of humanity under the banner of the human-hating, Player-supremacist terror organization with goals of taking over the world from humanity, EVOL [ZETMAN] under the leadership of EVOL’s charismatic de-facto leader, the tall, slender and muscular, black-haired, and blue-eyed, suit-wearing, conniving and sly but publicly very charismatic and slick Haytani Seiji [ZETMAN].

Like in canon ZETMAN with canon Jin, Dr. Kanzaki [ Kanzaki Gorō] runs off with baby Shinji after the Players destroy the lab Shinji and Rei were both being created it and [Dr. Kanzaki] adopts the disguise of an eccentric street person in the ruins of old Hakone near Tokyo-3, [ the ruins of old Hakone near Tokyo-3] now [ the ruins of old Hakone near Tokyo-3] turned into a slum city where not only Japanese who had fallen on hard times lived, but American, Soviet and Chinese refugees lived, with the Japanese government, NERV and the Amagi Zaibatsu being too lazy to remove them [the slum people], and [Dr. Kanzaki] raising Shinji as his [Shinji's] grandson, [Dr. Kanzaki on the streets] giving young Shinji an education akin to that of a top-tier university thanks to his [ Dr. Kanzaki's] own intelligence.

Unfortunately, Dr. Kanzaki is killed by a chameleon Player with a hatred of humans on a serial killer spree, and a comatose Jin is [Jin] then [Jin] adopted by the light-brown-haired, brown-eyed, tall and slender, buxom, caring and kind but sarcastic and somewhat strongheaded now ex-hostess Kawakami Akemi [ZETMAN] as her [Akemi’s] foster son [Jin] after he [Jin] saves her [Akemi] from the same Chameleon Player {ZETMAN] that [the Chameleon Player] killed Gorō, after he [Shinji/Jin] wakes up.

Moving to geopolitical affairs after the US-Soviet War and Warday, the Germanic, Italian, Bulgarian and French-dominated European Federation ruling over Europe from the Azores to the Urals manages to get in contact with the Federation of the Americas ruling over all of Latin America, the Japanese protectorate of the Pacific States of America ruling over both the Canadian and American West Coasts, and the rest of the Americas along with the Japanese-Mongolian-true Han Chinese-Manchu dominated East Asia sometime around 1990 and East Asia, the Federation of the Americas and the European Federation all agree to reform the UN into something akin to a modern Congress of Vienna, with the Europeans controlling Eurasia, the Japanese East Asia, Central Asia and Southeast Asia, the Iranians the Iranian sphere of influence and the Arab nations the Arab peninsula and North Africa.

The British were offered the former Confederate States of Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, West Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri in the now-defunct USA and [the British] allowed to [the British] keep East Canada except Quebec, the restored House of Hapsburg-Lorraine-ruled Austria-Hungarian Monarchy/Austria-Hungarian Empire under Archduke Otto takes the states of New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland to form the federal constitutional imperial parliamentary royal monarchy w/Multi-Party Democracy of American Federation, the restored House of Hohenzollern-ruled German Empire under Kaiser Albert II, takes the German-populated US states of Nebraska, Wisconsin, Montana, Kansas, Ohio, South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa and Minnesota to form the unitary populist constitutional imperial parliamentary royal monarchy under populist authoritarian right-wing democracy of the American Union State, with Flordia being given to the Spanish.

By the time of the 21th century, more specifically the 2000s [200-2009], decades after the end of the Able Archer War between the USA and the USSR in the early to mid 1980s and then Warday in 1988, more specifically in Japan, sometime before the invention of the IS units [Infinite Stratos |IS| units, |an IS unit| a powered exoskeleton |an IS unit| originally created |the IS units| for |what the IS units were (IS units) originally created (the IS units) for| space exploration, that |an IS unit| possess |what an IS unit possesses| technology and combat capabilities far more advanced than any other weapon system while |an IS unit| possessing |the specific capabilities, equipment and weapons of an IS unit| a nigh-invulnerable shield barrier, 100% optical camouflage, hypersonic speeds, and capable of pulling off insane high G maneuvers while seemingly unaffected by gravity-induced blackout/red-outs and also space flight an |an IS unit| can |an IS Unit| only be used by pre-teen girls, teenage girls and young to early middle aged women, with males of any age being unable to use the IS units at all, |the IS unit| from |the media franchise the IS unit is (the IS Unit) from] IS: Infinite Stratos] by [who invents the IS units] the current heiress of the Japanese Shinonono noble and ex-samurai clan from IS: Infinite Stratos, the young Japanese woman and traditional Japanese beauty with red-purple eyes and long dark purple-pink hair that extends to her hips with some loose bangs, which cover her forehead, usually having a sleepy yet cheerful expression, having a slim, voluptuous figure and large breasts, normally wearing a frilly maid-like blue and white dress, ribboned pantyhose on her legs, a pair of robotic rabbit ears, a lab coat, and Mary Jane shoes (similar to that in Alice in Wonderland) revealing a great deal of her cleavage, being highly intellectually and academically gifted along with being a skilled inventor, engineer and mechanic, being very childish person and almost constantly running around like a happy kid, being very fond of the people she likes and will hug them as many times as she feels like, being slightly lecherous, having little sense of responsibility for what she does or what her creations cause along with comical tendency, befitting of her childish personality, to manipulate the concept of things falling out of the sky often, also being fearless and confident when it comes to some things, especially in combat which she is also very good at, but also being surprisingly remorseless, selfish, and self-centered, never showing any concern for the trouble that her actions bring or even the damage they cause, irrespective of property and lives, Shinonono Tabane from IS: Infinite Stratos, technology in the First World [NATO from the Azores to the Urals, and also including North Africa and Central Asia, Japan, Manchuria, Han China, the now Fula/Fulani and Hausa-populated Sub-Saharan Africa, Southern Africa excluding Zimbabwe, the Arabian peninsula] is at OTL 2010s to 2020s, with touchscreen, small smartphones and tablets along with personalized laptops being a common site, and social media being around early 2010s to mid 2010s, while in the "Deathlands" of Central Canadia, the American Midwest and Latin America things have reverted to feudalism and barbarism,

The world has just started to acknowledge the existence of those suffering from the mental disorder from Girl Genius best described as "the spark of genius", the mental attribute which is the sine qua non of a mad scientist, more specifically whatever is "whatever it is that makes Mad Scientists what they are. A poorly understood concept that identifies and incorporates a batch of personality traits shared by those who have it." with is sufferers being "people who seem to have the ability to tinker with the laws of physics as we know them. They are brilliant, focused, and often impatient with those whose thoughts don't run with the speed or in the direction of their own. Because of this, some of those thoughts have veered off in truly alarming directions. This makes them dangerous and shortsighted..." and [those who suffer from this mental illness] tend to inspire loyalty ✣ (or at least obedient fear ✣ ) in lesser mortals and thus acquire a coterie of minions, but this intuitive ability and associated charisma come at a price, however: Sparks are mad scientists who often lose awareness of practical ✣ and even ethical ✣ concerns in their pursuit of technical apotheosis and in fact, down-to-earth solutions mostly strike them as extremely boring, and if they're not actually driven insane by the breakthrough, Sparks often lose rationality while they're working, as this state tends to be marked by megalomania ✣ , increased aggression ✣ (especially if interrupted ✣ ), and a serious loss of perspective and thus the term "grounded" is used to refer to the state in which a Spark is sane enough to function on a day-to-day basis;[2] that is, when they aren't mad and [those afflicted with the Spark mental illness] are variously referred to as Gifted, Madboy/Madgirl,[3] Mad Scientist, and the archaic Thinkomancer, which [the Spark] along with those people who have the supernatural or paranormal ability held by some people, usually something someone is born with and develops during childhood, although there are cases of it being acquired later in life, usually through some sort of trauma, known as ESP from Zettai Karen Children with those having a ESP ability being referred to as Espers from Zettai Karen Children, which are the same as their counterparts of an individual who uses scientifically based supernatural powers and emits an invisible energy field from their body, known as an AIM Diffusion Field which is Closely connected to the Personal Reality that is the source of their ability, it is an esper's unconscious interference with reality known as an Esper from A Certain Magical Index, with Japan's Itogami-jima being the premier source of research into these powers and the post-WW2 Esper secret service division of the Japanese Government's Home Ministry that studies and simultaneously support Espers in Japan, acting as a humane, peacekeeping organization working to improving the social status of Espers, B.A.B.E.L. from Zettai Karen Children, [B.A.B.E.L.] being recognized as the best organization on research in Espers in this story, although the First world in general has reverted to Victorian and Edwardian mores and social graces and customs due to the Blue Dog Christian Identity Confederate Democrats in the USA and the Third Rome Eurasian Zionist cultists in the Kremlin having nearly destroyed the world and destroyed the USA and the USSR via the US-Soviet War and Warday decades ago [1988].

The country factbook should be from the early 2000s and focus on Japan, its [Japan's] name in both Japanese, romanji, Kanji and Katakana and English, taking in mind that Japan underwent a "Shōwa Ishin" [Showa Restoration |Shōwa Ishin|] in the mid 1970s  with the goal of restoring power to the clan head of the main branch of the Imperial House of Great Yamato/the Minamoto dynasty reigning over Japan as Emperor of Japan from 	25 December 1926-10 November 1928 to 7 January 1989,  Minamoto Hirohito, [Hirohito] who [Hirohito] had the combined era and regal name of Shōwa, along with the then  sei-i taishōgun/shōgun of Japan, Saionji Tsunemori from the Regent House of Saionji and abolishing the post-WW2 system of democratic government in Japan, with the goal of reorganizing the state along totalitarian militarist lines via a military coup d'état, if necessary and a small group of qualified people backing up a strong Emperor and a strong  sei-i taishōgun/shōgun ruling in concert with each other after said restoration along with state socialism, [Japan undergoing a Shōwa Ishin in the 1970s] before it [Japan] reclaimed its [Japan's] overseas provinces [Taiwan and the Pengu Islands, the entire Korean peninsula and Sakhalin and the Kurils] in a process of treaties and referendums from the late 1970s to the early 1990s, which [the Shōwa Ishin in Japan] partially succeeded, in part due to the conspirators behind the Shōwa Ishin in the JSDF with help from the post-1951 Japanese political party and far-right political group with an ideology of Ultraconservatism (Japanese), Anti-communism, Pro-Americanism and Ultranationalism, the Dai Nippon Aikokutō [Greater Japan Patriotic Party |Dai Nippon Aikokutō|] getting help from the major socialist and progressive[3] political party in Japan which existed from 1945 to 1996 with an ideology of Socialism, Progressivism and Pacificism, the Nihon Shakai-tō [Japan Socialist Party|Nihon Shakai-tō|] along with nationalist elements of the LDP and the rest of the Japanese National Diet, but although the Shōwa Ishin succeded in its goal of toppling the post-WW2 democratic Japanese regime and [the Shōwa Ishin] restoring the main branch of the Imperial House of Great Yamato-ruled Great Japanese Empire as the government [the main branch of the Imperial House of Great Yamato-ruled Great Japanese Empire] of Japan, the conspirators were unable to dissolve the Japanese political system even though they succeded in reorganizing the Japanese state along totalitarian militarist lines and having a small group of qualified people backing up a strong Emperor and a strong  sei-i taishōgun/shōgun ruling in concert with each other, along with removing American and Soviet influence from Japan via various means including cultural initiatives, propaganda campaigns portraying Soviet socialism and American liberalism as both degenerate and two sides of the same coin, pointing out that Japan was the world's technological power and soon to be the world's economic power, using the post-WW2’s Japan’s post- July 21, 1952 domestic intelligence agency administered by the Japanese Ministry of Justice tasked with internal security and espionage against threats to Japanese national security, contributing to Japanese government policy by providing relevant organizations with necessary foreign and domestic data (collected through investigations and intelligence activities) on subversive organizations, with any investigation conducted by the agency needing to go through the Public Security Examination Commission (PSEC) in order to determine if there is a justification to investigate and clamp down on an organization's activities, the Public Security Intelligence Agency along with the Japanese NPA and the post-1977 – 1996 elite tactical unit equivalent to the  US Delta Force/US CIA SOG black ops death squads of the Japanese National Police Agency maintained by individual Japanese prefectural police forces and supervised by the Japanese National Police Agency and also national-level counterterrorism unit that cooperates with territorial-level Anti-Firearms Squads and Counter-NBC Terrorism Squads, the Special Assault Team to clamp down on communist and pro-Soviet and pro-American activities within Japan and using the post-WW2, post-1952-1986 Japanese intelligence agency under the Cabinet Secretariat responsible for gathering, processing, and analyzing national security information for the Japanese cabinet, reporting directly to the Japanese Prime Minister, the Cabinet Intelligence and Research Office to gather intelligence on Soviet and American activities and cultivate allies in Europe, the Arab world and Latin America, along with reclaiming lost territories, starting with Okinawa in 1972, its [Japan's] style of government, remembering that Japan is a unitary parliamentary semi-constitutional democratic absolute constitutional royal imperial monarchy ruled by the main branch of the Imperial House of Great Yamato/the Minamoto dynasty as its reigning imperial family under the feudal dynastic hereditary royal military dictatorship of the Tokugawa clan-ruled Tokugawa bakufu with chosen members of  Regent Houses of Koubuin, Ikaruga, Saionji, Kujo, and Takatsukasa ruling over Japan as  sei-i taishōgun/shōgun of Japan in succession as per the reformations initiated by the Meiji Restoration in this timeline, running in conjunction with the post-WW2 Japanese government that was created to run the nation [Japan] with a democracy system after WW2, its [Japan's] core regions [the Japanese Home Islands], outland province [Okinawa] and its [Japan's] reclaimed overseas provinces [Taiwan and the Pengu Islands, Sakhalin and the Kurils, the entire Korean peninsula, Palau, the Carolinas and the Marinas] as well as the quality of life and human rights index in Japan, a brief history of Japan up until the early 2000s, with the history mentioning how when the Cold War started shortly after the end of World War II, Japan was pulled in by the United States to act as their main Far East base, with the island nation undergoing controlled rearmament, supported by US funding, to keep the Soviets in check, which backfired on the Americans as the Japanese regained Taiwan and the Pengu Islands in the late 1970s after the KMT-ruled Nationalist China in exile on Taiwan and the Pengu Islands and the CCP-ruled PRC in mainland China both collapsed due to the Sino-Vietnamese war, leading to to a political and social period akin to the period of history in the KMT-ruled Nationalist China and the Beiyang Government-ruled first Republic of China when control over the post-Xinhai Revolution China region was divided among former military cliques of the Beiyang Army and other regional factions from 1916 to 1928, due to Yuan's death creating a power vacuum that spread across the provinces of Sichuan, Shanxi, Gansu Qinghai and Ningxia in Han China, Cantonia's two provinces of Guangdong, and Guangxi, along with the nations of Yunnan and East Turkestan, being characterized by constant civil war between different factions for control of the China region known as the Warlord era, [China going through a modern day resurgence of the early 20th century warlord era in the early 1980s] but much less violent, as mainland China split into its natural nations [Yunnan, East Turkestan, Tibet, Inner Mongolia and Manchuria] and Taiwan and the Pengu Islands subsequently simultaneously became independent from both the KMT and CCP as the Bîn-chú Chìn-bō͘ Tóng-dominated Republic of Taiwan, with the simultaneous restoration of both the Zhu-ruled Ming dynasty and the Beiyang Government on the model of Yuan Shikai's short-lived Empire of China in Han China, the joint restoration of the Zhang family-ruled Fengtian Clique and the Aisin-Gioro-ruled Empire of Manchukuo in Manchuria with Zhang Xueliang's eldest son, Zhang Lülin becoming Generalissimo of the Military Government of Manchuria and Puyi's half-Japanese niece, Aisin-Gioro Husheng becoming Empress of Manchukuo, the Llama-ruled Kingdom of Tibet in Tibet and the East Turkestan Republic in East Turkestan simultaneously liberating themselves from Han Chinese settler colonialism, and Yunnan coming under the rule of a reconstituted Yunnan Clique before [Yunnan] restoring the Imperial House of Duan-ruled Dali Kingdom as its [Yunnan's] government, even as the main branch of the Imperial House of Borjigin-ruled Mongolian Autonomous Federation was restored as the government of Inner Mongolia's Chahar and Suiyan provinces, as the Bîn-chú Chìn-bō͘ Tóng-dominated Republic of Taiwan in Taiwan and the Pengu Islands choose to rejoin Japan as a restored Formosa province, under a series of treaties and referendums approved by international law, the Hague and the UN, further humiliating the USA and the USSR after the events in Korea as the jointly restored Zhu-ruled Ming dynasty and Beiyang Government in Han China was ruled to be the legitimate successor state of the KMT-ruled Nationalist China and the one true China and the jointly restored Zhang family-ruled Fengtian Clique and Aisin-Gioro-ruled Empire of Manchukuo in Manchuria was ruled to be the legitimate successor state of the CCP-ruled PRC under international law by the Hague, making the Americans and Soviets look like fools as the international community opened up diplomatic and economic relationships with the monarchies and republics of the Chinese mainland and Japan made Manchuria, Inner Mongolia and Han China into protectorates once more to form the East Asian Community, as the reclamation of Taiwan and the Pengu Islands by Japan during and after the Chinese balkanization meant that Japan gained access to Taiwan's and the Pengu Islands' great economic, industrial and technological resources along with manpower and Taiwan and the Pengu Islands gained access to the Japanese labor market and vast corporate structure, as Taiwan and the Pengu Islands guided Japan through free market reforms, although the administration in Kyoto and Tokyo was effective at mobilizing assets to serve the state's ambitions,  as the JSDF was integrated into the existing military structures of the KMT-ruled Nationalist Chinese ROCAF/CNAF left behind on Taiwan and the Pengu Islands after the formation of the Republic of Taiwan, in which many Japanese officers were discharged and demoted, posted under Hoklo, Cantonese and both true Han and modern Han officers from Taiwan and the Pengu Islands in order to seek talented generals, and because of this military integration, mandatory military service was eliminated in Taiwan and the Pengu Islands, causing many Taiwanese to react positively towards it, as military service in Taiwan and the Pengu Islands under the KMT-ruled Nationalist Chinese occupation was compulsory but unpopular, as by 1980, successive LDP administration in Japan, now including Taiwan and the Pengu Islands made great strides in modernizing and upgrading the JSDF, replacing and scrapping most of the 1950s to 1960s ordnance, and upgrading the JSDF's training in an accelerated program, as the JSDF was also commonly armed with American-made and Soviet-made weapons and vehicles, resulting from its integration with the the KMT-ruled Nationalist Chinese ROCAF/CNAF forces left behind in Taiwan and the Pengu Islands repurposed to the use of the Republic of Taiwan after Japan reannexed Taiwan and the Pengu Islands, and also utilizing advanced weapons purchased from European NATO and Iranian militaries, including attack helicopters and MBTs, with Japan afterwards reclaiming the entire Korean peninsula via a series of democratic referendums and legal treaties that were all legitimate under international law and approved by both the UN and the Hague in a process that started in February 1981 and ended sometime in late 1982, after the WPK-ruled DPRK in North Korea under Kim Il-Sung and the Fourth ROK in South Korea under Park Chung-Hee reunified into a restored KPR ruling over all of Korea from 1978 to January 1981 during the final decades of the Cold War between the CCCP and the USA, with Park Chung Hee becoming the first leader of this restored KPR formed from the union of the WPK-ruled DPRK in North Korea under Kim Il-Sung and the Fourth ROK in South Korea under Park Chung-Hee after the KPR's restoration as the government [the KPR] of the entire Korean peninsula, as the descendants of the indigenous, sex-slave trading, Confucianist, neo-Confucianist, ignorant, afraid of knowledge, out of touch, slave-owning Korean nobility that flourished under the Ming satellite state and tributary kingdom of the Han Chinese-Korean noble family of the post-1398, pre-1898 Royal House of Jeonju Yi-ruled Great Joeson State/Joeson Kingdom/Great Joeson/Kingdom of Great Joeson known as the yangaban  in the former ROK territory in South Korea were immediately suppressed by the restored Japanese rule over Korea after Japan reannexed Korea, as their [the yangaban descendants' and survivors] ancestors were by the Japanese in the decades from 1898 to 1945 before Korea was split into the WPK-ruled DPRK in North Korea and the ROK in South Korea, with the large industrial conglomerates in the ROK-controlled South Korea run and controlled by an individual or family, usually of yangaban ancestry, which consist of multiple diversified affiliates, controlled by a person or group, playing a significant role in the politics of the various versions of the ROK ruling South Korea over the decades,having been criticised for low dividend payouts and other governance practices that favor controlling shareholders at the expense of ordinary investors, the chaebŏl/jaebeol [rich family/financial clique |chaebŏl/jaebeol|], [the chaebŏl/jaebeol in the once-again Japanese Korea] being [the chaebŏl/jaebeol in the once-again Japanese Korea] bought out [the chaebŏl/jaebeol in the once-again Japanese Korea] by competing entities among the set of companies with interlocking business relationships and shareholdings that dominated the Japanese economy in the second half of the 20th century, being a type of business group that is in a loosely organized alliance within Japan’s business community in the legal sense with the member, companies owning small portions of the shares in each other’s companies, centered on a core bank; this system helps insulate each company from stock market fluctuations and takeover attempts, thus enabling long-term planning in projects, the keiretsu [system, series, grouping of enterprises, order of succession |keiretsu|], as adherents of the political ideology and a form of ethnic and racial identity for Korean people, based on the belief that Koreans form a nation, a race, and an ethnic group that shares a unified bloodline and a distinct culture, centered on the notion of the Korean race, minjok [race |minjok|], and the political ideology of the post-August 1948, pre-April 1960 Unitary presidential republic under an authoritarian dictatorship of the First Republic of Korea, more specifically of the First Republic of Korea’s founding dictator widely considered to be the Mao Zedong of Korea in contrast to Il-Sung, who [Il-Sung] was [Il-Sung] seen [Il-Sung] as the Korean Chiang Kai-shek due to both of them [Kai-shek and Il-Sung] being [Kai-shek and Il-Sung] Soviet puppets [Kai-shek and Il-Sung], [the First Republic of Korea’s founding dictator] Syngman Rhee, which was part of an effort to consolidate a united and obedient citizenry around Rhee’s strong central leadership through appeals to Korean ultranationalism[6] and Korean ethnic supremacy and starts from the assumption that the Korean people are a genetically, spiritually, and culturally homogeneous people from ancient times, but this national identity was supposedly being undermined by external forces and their collaborators, and capitalists and communists play such a role today,and the Korean people must fight against this by restoring the unity they have maintained for many years, being based around a four-point political program, including elimination of formal discrimination between the nobility and the masses, the economic equalization of rich and poor through land reform, social and political equality of the sexes, and an end to discrimination between North and South or the urban capital and the rural provinces, with an end to partisan politics being posited, in favor of a united people behind a de facto one-party state, Ilminjuui [ One-People Principle |Ilminjuui|], [adherents of minjok and Ilminjuui] along with Juche in the once-again Japanese Korea, mostly among the yangaban descendants in the former ROK in South Korea and the former WPK-ruled DPRK in North Korea's political, military and governmental elite, [adherents of minjok and Ilminjuui along with Juche in the once-again Japanese Korea] were [adherents of minjok and Ilminjuui along with Juche in the once-again Japanese Korea] hunted down [adherents of minjok and Ilminjuui along with Juche in the once-again Japanese Korea] and [adherents of minjok and Ilminjuui along with Juche in the once-again Japanese Korea] eliminated by the Japanese NPA's SAT in collaboration with the JSDF, with the Japanese government using the excuse of counter-insurgency to [Japan] deploy elite JSDF special forces in Korea and [Japan] seize the nuclear power plants in Korea and capture the former WPK-ruled DPRK in North Korea's rockets, both prototype and delivered for use in the development of a Japanese nuclear weapons program, or [adherents of minjok and Ilminjuui along with Juche in the once-again Japanese Korea] swarmed by raving mobs of the majority of the population of both the WPK-ruled DRPK in North Korea and the ROK in South Korea, [the majority of the people on the Korean peninsula in the modern era] descended from the majority Korean population of slaves that were enslaved by both the yangaban and the Royal House of Jeonju Yi during the Joeson period in Korea, having no rights, the nobi, and the descendants of the sex slaves and state prostitutes of both the yangaban and the members of the Royal House of Jeonju Yi during the Joeson era who were supposedly and legally trained to be courtesans, providing artistic entertainment and conversation to men of upper class, being the Great Joeson State’s legal entertainers, required to perform various functions for the state, being carefully trained and frequently accomplished in the fine arts, poetry, and prose despite their real status as sex slaves, prostitutes along with simulataneously being concubines and unofficial second wives of the yangaban and the members of the Royal House of Jeonju Yi, with their roles including medical care and needlework, the kiseang/giseang, who [the descendants of the nobi and the kiseang/giseang] owe their [the descendants' of the nobi and the kiseang/giseang] freedom from the yangaban and the Royal House of Jeonju Yi, even post-WW2 to the Japanese and [the descendants of the nobi and the kiseang/giseang] despise the yangaban and the Royal House of Jeonju Yi, with this hatred of the yangaban [by the common people of Korea] extending to the Russians, Americans and Chinese whether KMT or CCP, and like with Taiwan and the Pengu Islands, Japan gained access to Korea's great economic, industrial and technological resources along with manpower and Korea gained access to the Japanese labor market and vast corporate structure, as Korea guided Japan through free market reforms, although the administration in Kyoto and Tokyo was effective at mobilizing assets, not just in Japan, but in Korea and Taiwan and the Pengu Islands to serve the state's ambitions, along with how Japan's reclaimation of its [Japan's] main overseas provinces [the entire Korean peninsula and Taiwan and the Pengu Islands] was met with controversy internationally, especially from the USA and the CCCP, although Western Europe and the Arab world, along with the Third World cared little about what the Americans and Russians thought at this point, as Japan had overtaken all other nations as the number one supplier of enterprise- and military-grade electronics, providing everything from rack mounted switching systems for cell phones networks to guidance systems for the then in development unmanned aerial vehicles at this point, with many contractors in the USA and the CCP now acting only as middlemen in the process, taking their cut and passing on the real work to Japanese keiretsu, how the JSDF was outfitted with trained special operation teams and [the JSDF] was supposedly made as a worldwide peacekeeping force by the time the US-Soviet War started in the mid-1980s, how Japan managed to [Japan] stay neutral in the US-Soviet War of the mid-1980s and [Japan] also protect East Asia from Soviet and American aggression through the East Asian Community and ASEAN survived Warday in October 1988 as well as the aftermath of the US-Soviet War and Warday in the 1990s to maintain its spot as the world power, how and why the Japanese were able to restore the Far Eastern Republic on the Russian East Coast, liberate the Kingdom of Hawaii in Hawaii and establish the Pacific States of America on the Canadian and American West Coast from 1990-1991 along with [Japan] returning Outer Manchuria to the jointly restored Zhang family-ruled Fengtian Clique and Aisin-Gioro-ruled Empire of Manchuria in Manchuria after Warday, along with how Japan met the European Federation in Europe and the Federation of the Americas in Latin America after Warday, [the factbook about Japan] showing its [Japan's] role as a leader of both the East Asian Community and ASEAN along with it [Japan] being a leader of the Non-Aligned Movement along with [Japan] being a member of the UN's G7 by the time the factbook is written in the early 2000s, along with its [Japan's] relations with both the European Federation in Europe and the Federation of the Americas in Latin America and the other countries in Asia, along with its progressive policies towards Espers and Sparks.

### Government Structure and Ideology

**Government Type**: Unitary parliamentary semi-constitutional democratic absolute monarchy, seamlessly integrating elements of traditional feudal governance with modern legislative structures.

**Emperor's Role**: Symbolic and ceremonial, heading the state and representing Japan's long-standing traditions. The Emperor serves as a moral and cultural guide, embodying the nation's historical lineage.

**Shōgun's Role**: The Sei-i Taishōgun acts as a significant stabilizer in military affairs, serving as the principal advisor on defense and providing a strong leadership presence in domestic security matters, ensuring Japan remains a formidable entity on the global stage.

**National Diet**: A bicameral legislature combining modern democratic processes with the economic and military oversight inherited from shogunal traditions. Comprised of:
- **House of Representatives**: The primary legislative chamber, overseeing the creation and revision of laws.
- **House of Councillors**: Serving as a complementary body, reviewing legislation and policy impacts.

**Adapted National Ideology**: 
Japan’s modern ideology is a refined form of historical Pan-Asianism, celebrating its cultural influence through a message of unity, progress, and guidance for the broader Asian region. This ideology underscores Japan’s unique role in global leadership, positioning itself as a beacon of technocratic advancement and harmonious governance. Contemporary Japan often draws inspiration from the ancient Yamato Kingship, viewing itself as a modern-day successor to this influential era, noted for its pivotal developmental impact.

### Local Governance in Overseas Provinces

**Korean Peninsula**: The Korean Peninsula exists as an integral part of Japan’s overseas territories, with the restored Koryo Peninsula Republic (KPR) functioning as a de facto local government. Maintaining cultural autonomy, the KPR manages internal administrative affairs, offering a source of national pride and preserving regional traditions within the framework of the greater Japanese state.

**Taiwan and the Pengu Islands**: In similar fashion, the Bîn-chú Chìn-bō͘ Tóng-dominated Republic of Taiwan remains an unofficial local government on the islands. It retains a measure of socioeconomic independence within the extended Japanese governance model, facilitating governmental continuity and fostering shared prosperity.

### Political Influence and Ideological Advancement

Japan’s refined Pan-Asianist ideology promotes the condition that Japan’s progress and fragmentation of its historical adversaries has positioned the nation as a guiding light in global affairs. Japan's awareness of its current standing fosters an environment that aims to advance science, culture, and technology not only within its borders but to serve as a cornerstone for international policy.

**Civic Engagement**: Reflecting a modern adaptation of its ancient alliance, Japan emphasizes the importance of regional cooperation among its protectorates. This philosophy fosters a climate of mutual respect, technological sharing, and economic prosperity within an expanded community of interlinked nations.

**Cultural Reflections**: The government continuously draws parallels between the modern state and the ancient Yamato Kingship. By leveraging its honorable past, Japan positions itself as a purveyor of peace and prosperity, responsible for instilling moral and cultural values, promoting education, and revitalizing both historical and modern innovations across Asia and beyond.

### Modern Day Policy Implementation

**Technology as Advancement**: Policies underscore the focus on technological integration within governance structures. Infrastructure, education, and policy development embrace digital avenues, ensuring Japan remains at the forefront of global technological advancement.

**Interconnected Governance**: Local governance structures in Korean and Taiwanese regions maintain stability and foster regional inclusivity. Autonomy within these regions allows locally adapted policies that align with Japan's broader ideals, promoting regional cultural uniqueness within a unified state vision.

Japan projects itself as a blueprint for integrating heritage with modernity, fostering respect for its culture, and acting as a leading agent for global technological and economic progress.

### Japan Self-Defense Forces (JSDF)

**Historical Context**:
The Japan Self-Defense Forces (JSDF) emerged as Japan's means of maintaining regional defense and security following the tumultuous early-mid 20th century. The forces were initially limited by strict international agreements, but the Shōwa Ishin—a wave of political and cultural reformation—led to significant restructuring, transforming the JSDF into a more conventional military force reflecting Japan's evolving strategic position.

**Shōwa Ishin and Military Reforms**:
- **Reorganization**: In the wake of the Shōwa Ishin, the JSDF transitioned from a primarily defensive organization into a comprehensive military structure compatible with global standards.
- **Article 9 Redefinition**: The shift saw a reinterpretation of Article 9, which allowed for increased operational scope within international legal frameworks, focusing on peacekeeping and defense rather than offensive operations.

**Integration with Taiwan and Korea**:
- Upon Japan reclaiming Taiwan and the Pengu Islands, the JSDF integrated into existing military structures left by KMT-ruled Nationalist Chinese forces. This integration led to a blend of traditional Japanese and local military practices.
- This integration fostered a multicultural command structure, allowing for the appointment of Hoklo, Cantonese, true Han, and modern Han officers alongside Japanese personnel. The redefined military hierarchy prioritized talent and skill, redrawing the lines of leadership within Japan's broader Southeast Asian territories.
- Military service reforms in Taiwan and the Pengu Islands saw the elimination of mandatory enrollment, a move that boosted public sentiment positively.

**Expansion and Upgrades**:
- Successive LDP administrations undertook rigorous modernization of the JSDF throughout the 1980s, scrapping outdated 1950s-1960s ordnance and revitalizing training programs.
- The JSDF adopted mixed arsenals featuring both American and Soviet designs, alongside advanced NATO and Iranian technology, including attack helicopters and Main Battle Tanks (MBTs).
- Following the incorporation of the Korean Peninsula through diplomatic and internationally sanctioned processes, the JSDF further broadened its influence and adapted contemporary military tactics.

**Operational Reach and Humanitarian Role**:
- Presently, the JSDF boasts an impressive capacity with 25 million active personnel, drawing strength from contributions across Korea, Taiwan and the Pengu Islands, Okinawa, Palau, the Carolinas, and the Marinas.
- With an expeditionary force exceeding 5 million troops, the JSDF engages in global peacekeeping operations, emphasizing the mission of "helping countries torn by conflict create a lasting peace."
- The JSDF has participated in critical peace missions across South Asia, notably in Sri Lanka, Burma, Pakistan, and India, and has covertly supported Afghanistan against Soviet influences.

### Modern Capabilities

- **Strategic Focus**: Emphasizing peacekeeping, regional stability, and technological integration, the JSDF stands as a pillar of security within Asia.
- **Personnel and Recruitment**: With widespread recruitment across core and overseas territories, the JSDF leverages regional strength and unity to form a robust defense framework.
- **Technological Edge**: Japan's advanced industrial base supports JSDF developments, ensuring cutting-edge equipment and training resources uphold mission success. 

### Influence and Impact

Japan’s military proficiency, as realized through the JSDF, underscores the nation's position as a stabilizing force in East Asia and beyond. The diversified and inclusive nature of its military operations represents Japan’s commitment to fostering peaceful bilateral and multilateral engagements, cementing its leadership and responsibility in regional and global matters.

To address the task of generating synthetic data capturing System 1 and System 2 thinking, creativity, and metacognitive reflection for the provided code snippet involving `basen`, we will proceed by identifying sections that require quick responses (System 1) and those demanding deeper analysis (System 2).

### Analyzed Output with System 1 and System 2 Thinking:

The problem at hand involves testing encoding and decoding functionality for base58 and base62 numerals within a testing framework. Here's how we break down the thinking processes:

[sys1]
The test functions check encoding and decoding operations for base58 and base62 using a series of assert statements.
The objective is to verify that encoding and decoding operations perform correctly without errors.
[end sys1]

[sys2]
**2.1 Understand the Problem:**
