Plz accept LoN as the shortened form of the League of Nations.

Although Qing Empire is conventionally accepted as just China, I think you should accept Qing instead of China as the official name of the country Puyi lead was Qing, not China and there is a definite difference between Qing and China (Qing was a country established and lead by Manchus, not Chinese)

Thanks for the comment. Lon and Qing will be added as alternatives.

Would it be fair to say that Puyi was not a Chinese emperor, but the Emperor of China? His dynsty ruled over approximately the same territory as modern China, which it seems was referred to both as Qing, and as China (Middle Kingdom) in official documents.
