What happens
Wearing richly decorated robes befitting an Emperor of China, the Manchu leader, Son of Heaven, Lord of Ten Thousand Years, Emperor of the Great Qing Dynasty, has taken the Dragon Throne in an unusual second Coronation ceremony and now resides inside the Forbidden City as his ancestors did. Referencing the old customs, the Manchu leader claims that the victory of his forces in the Chinese Civil War proves that he has a Manadate from heaven to lead China. Whether he intents to spread his rule until it encompasses 'All under Heaven', as previous Emperors claimed, remains to be seen.
