What privileges are required in order to create a thread on the Military History section? I'd like to make a Korean War Historical thread similar to the WWII one however it is restricted. Thank you

This is more of a History and diplomacy related question rather than a military one but why is it that Socialist Vietnam and the DPRK chose to be aligned with the Soviets rather than the PRC despite massive Chinese aid to both nations? Notable examples include the DPRK purging the pro-Yan'an faction and the Sino-Vietnamese border Wars. Why did Soviet influence prevail and Chinese influence fall out of favor?

It makes sense to counterbalance the neighboring power with the far away power to preserve autonomy. It is the same logic for why so many nations in SEA were doing the same. Otherwise their influence is enough to start directing your policies, regardless of the power's intent.

This logic only falls apart when the far away power starts to try to use you to fight your neighbor.

You have to reach a certain number of reaction points. I just recently gained the ability to see others profiles. I believe its above 100 reaction points to get it. I think it's to prevent new users who could possibly be trolls to just constantly harass someone's profile by making new accs

I remember there was an article about Apple that is becoming more and more Chinese (suppliers), and also about the majority of Apple factories that are in China, and that only some are in Vietnam and India. Does anyone have that article about Apple?
