China is too easy to invade once you are in, the steppe has zero population so they just do whatever the local lord tells them, they zerg rushed persia and the rest then swiftly fragmented. Administering an empire for an extended period of time and integrating culture's and peoples is farm more interesting.

Do the parliament issues just give you benefits with no downside? Like double taxes without any repercussions for squeezing your population dry, no malus to pop growth or prosperity or its equivalent or trade maluses since all the pops' money goes to the government or pissed off pops that will chimp out and revolt because you're taking all their money? Just "dude double your income immediately with this one simple trick lmao"? That's fucking retarded

The real legacy is going to Astana and every road and landmark being named some variation of Turkestan, Turan, Timur, Ashina etc.
Making those people do European style nationalism at the end of the last century was a mistake, really.
