India?

[elynis.livejournal.com]

So...I have a weird question. In the alternate history of Code Geass, did India ever get colonized? What is the political standing of India in the show anyway? They're part of the Chinese Federation, but they want out...? Also, is Rakshata the only Indian character we see on the show?

Thanks for being patient with me. It's when I ask questions like this that I realize how much I still don't understand the inner workings of Code Geass...

Personally, I think the Chinese Federation didn't grow to be that big through direct conquest like Britannia did. That's because nobody cared to revolt against the eunuchs before R2. Ergo, I'm guessing that India was annexed to China some time before season one in exchange for something else (think: benevolent assimilation). So the Chinese Federation (note use of the term "federation", denoting some sort of cooperative entity).

Just placing my two cents on the line here.
