china effectively wasnt partaking in ww2 and just a regional conflict with japan and its proxy states.  > received equipment from axis and allied powers like these italian tankettes  > stalin was actually pro nationalist government for a good while since he assumed it would be easier to eventually flip them communist then for mao to win a civil war  the sino japanese war should really be looked at like the winter and continuation war. it happened around wwii, but really isnt part of it.
