The Republic of China was restored on the mainland, as well as the release of Tibet, Xinjiang, and Inner Mongolia. Financial aid is provided to Cuba and Venezuela as insurance that democracy will be restored, and a similar situation unfolds in Belarus. Afghanistan is returned to its rightful government. West Sahara is defeated by Moroccan forces. South Sudan and Egypt maintain their sovereignty, and Egypt asserts its control over the contested region with Sudan. Ethiopia's government, as well as those of its neighbors, are replaced with 'compliant' ones. Myanmar returns to a peaceful state due to NATO peacekeeping. Ukraine regains control of Crimea.
