I managed to make the day’s quota on Chapter 22 of CeleKing1, but after doing a whole week’s worth of progress in a day, it doesn’t seem like much of an accomplishment. I did spend a fair bit of time doling out fiefs on Erdi to account for the Wo (Japanese) population in the Celestial aristocracy. I’d already done the Man (assorted non-Asian) nobles and I need to spend some time allotting the rest of the Zhao (Korean) spots. Altogether, the non-Chinese population among the nobility accounts for less than a third of the total. Of course, there’s been a lot of intermarriage and the original stock wasn’t necessarily “pure” to begin with, but the Celestials’ racial hierarchy is based more on appearances than anything else.

I should be able to finish Chapter 22 at least before switching over, which means that I should wrap things up next cycle. It’s a good thing the end of the serial run isn’t until a good ways off because I still have a lot of counties to name before I can put up the maps.  (I only have 38 of the 223 counties named as of yet.) Fun for later. Well, let’s see if I can get that last push to finish Chapter 22 and then we can start thinking about making some actual progress in TSoA1. Stay tuned.
