wow I randomly learned about cohong watching a video on the opium wars, the name makes sense. Also love how you change the size of everything to indicate distance, really makes the whole world feel bigger than it is

I’m glad someone got that reference! There are a lot of historical references hidden away but they are almost all pretty subtle. Each system is named after a real-world port that had some trade significance during the period of the Opium Wars, mostly by taking a very literal transliteration of the name of a real city. But I think for the most part the references are much too well-hidden.
