when xml:lang ja-JP ノエル (Noëlle Ardelade) entered the picture and the story took on more than a hint of the Northern Ireland vs. UK situation, then it really started to click for me.I just read merela's post in the xml:lang zh-CN 末代皇妃 (The Last Empress) topic about the 14th princess, which made me realize there are also a lot of parallels there: class blockquote merela wrote:
I found out more about the 14th Princess, Kawashima Yoshiko (1906-1948). […]
Apparently, after the Chinese revolution in 1911, her father (PuYi's uncle) sent her to his friend in Japan. She was 3 at the time. She grew up in Japan but returned to China after her father's death when she was 16. […] When Japan surrendered in 1945, she was arrested as a spy and was convicted as a spy and executed in 1948. class blockquote ccwf responded:
That sounds a lot like the background of the “15 Year Princess” xml:lang ja-JP ノエル・アーデレード (Noëlle Ardelade or Noël Adelaide) in the series L/R (Licensed by Royalty). Hmmm…Additionally, also note the following possibly relevant facts: class ul class li Adelaide is the capital of South Australia and began as a colony. In the series, Princess Adelaide comes from an island colony (Ivory). class li Mining (copper) was originally important in Adelaide, and it is also known for is stone buildings. In the series, Ivory is mined for its Ivory stone.

Re: L/R (Licensed by Royalty)
Interesting, ccwf. I suppose you could say that Yoshiko came to a colony of Japan - Manchukuo (though many modern Japanese Historians tend to deny that Mancukuo was a colony - I disagree because it was being exploited because of its land) so there are quite few similarities.
