From China Daily, "'China has banned a Swedish-made computer game for "distorting history and damaging China's sovereignty and territorial integrity,' the Ministry of Culture (MOC) said Friday."

"The PC game, 'Hearts of Iron', was accused of distorting historical facts in describing the Fascist regimes of Japan, Germany and Italy during World War II."

"Moreover, 'Manchuria', 'West Xinjiang', and 'Tibet' appeared as independent sovereign countries in the maps of the game. In addition, it even included China's Taiwan province as the territory of Japan at the beginning of the game."

From the same people who have banned their citizens from expressing an opinion on 'The Beatles'.

Was listening to a radio show after this bit of news came out and they rang up some library in China and asked the woman if she liked the Beatles, all she would say was that she had no opinion on it... unreal, huh?

Yea, but i like J-rock, do i have to be japanese to enjoy that? Or (some) Johnny Cash, do i need to be american? Obviously they are more similar than classic chinnese to 60s english music but it doesnt mean people cant enjoy it if they like it?
