>>Please define TeoTwawKi Dawn, I seem to have forgotten...<<

First you must experience the endless cold and hunger of the Dark Interregnum, after the Westphalian system of the last 350 years collapses and fades away. Between war, food riots and long days of backbreaking toil you will bitterly lament your lost former life while listening to the haunting refrain of Argentine nuevo tango... ;)

If you survive these privations you will see TeoTwawKi Dawn, trembling in awe as the glorious Middle Kingdom resumes its rightful and customary place Under Heaven. In desperation, your barbarian emissaries will kowtow before the Dragon Throne in the Forbidden City. Should these unworthies bang their heads on the floor with sufficient obsequiousness, the Celestial Empire may grant you suzerainty in exchange for the usual annual tributes of military levies, grain, silk, elephants, teak, eunuch boys, and dancing girls. You will be vassals for Ten Thousand Years... :0)
