--[X] Revamp Your School System (Helpful) (-
Guangchou, as a land, has many advantages and boons few other nations possess. Unlike Japan (the fuckers), Guangchou holds many precious minerals and jewels in significant quantities within its soil and earth, allowing for prosperous industry, trade, culture, and art to bring wealth and enrichment to its people. Gentle slopes and teeming jungles bring with them food, wood, land to build upon, and vast amounts of animals and plants that can be used for healing, relaxation, farming, and friendship. The great many rivers and deltas dotting the land had once been the source of swamps, disease, and myths. Still, they were tamed into bountiful irrigation canals feeding large portions of the population over the centuries, giving boons were once they gave banes.
Similarly, the great reefs surrounding the islands allowed riches and food to be brought from the sea; pearls, shells, corals, fish, clams, and seaweed were among the most common to be used before the native population even possessed metal. The natural beauty of the lands has brought art, poetry, music, and thought in centuries past and centuries hence. Grand ancient monasteries once stood atop the peaks of the inner islands, monks contemplating the nature of the universe and sallying forth in defense of the people when one more upstart general or kingdom tried to conquer what the gods and spirits had long since denied them. And they did not fight alone, but with the people that sallied forth with great fleets the world's envy, bringing fire, bolt, rams, and pike to those deeming themselves the peoples superior. All their follies were carefully recorded in ancient libraries, whose wisdom is still being carefully studied and copied to this day to better understand the world and how we may shape it to our needs.
Yet, for all of Guangchous Glory, History, and Beauty, one must understand that there was a truth everyone knew but was long since resigned to its eternal rule.
Your education system sucked ass. Hard.
By Lenin, it's bad, so fucking bad.
Luckily, you are now rectifying that particular shortcoming of your nation, once more holding up the flame of enlightenment and knowledge which was smothered for so long under the grinding wheels of industry and the churning flames of war. The People cry out for education and for their children to learn, and you are more than happy to oblige. You can destroy a factory, melt metal into unusable scrap, and cast down monuments, but you cannot kill what you can't grasp, can't warp what has been long since guarded, can't take it from those that already possess knowledge.
So let us create a better world by making better schools.

----[] Obviously, find a way to simplify this down, you're not going to teach six year olds every complex detail about the Patriarchy. But introduce them to concepts so that by the time one gets to higher education...
---[] Gaungchou isn't perfect, but it's doing its best and is better across all these [equality metrics] than much of the rest of the world, and while it's done bad things before, it's now on the up and up and striding forward into, etc, etc.

--[] "We are not the kind of people who, when the word "anarchism" is mentioned, turn away contemptuously and say with a supercilious wave of the hand: "Why waste time on that, it's not worth talking about!" We think that such cheap "criticism" is undignified and useless." (Random Member)
---[] "Nor are we the kind of people who console themselves with the thought that the Anarchists "have no masses behind them and, therefore, are not so dangerous." It is not who has a larger or smaller "mass" following today, but the essence of the doctrine that matters. If the "doctrine" of the Anarchists expresses the truth, then it goes without saying that it will certainly hew a path for itself and will rally the masses around itself. If, however, it is unsound and built up on a false foundation, it will not last long and will remain suspended in mid-air. But the unsoundness of anarchism must be proved." (Random Member)
--[] "Some people believe that Marxism and anarchism are based on the same principles and that the disagreements between them concern only tactics, so that, in the opinion of these people, it is quite impossible to draw a contrast between these two trends." (Random Member)

---[] "We believe that the Anarchists are real enemies of Marxism. Accordingly, we also hold that a real struggle must be waged against real enemies. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the "doctrine" of the Anarchists from beginning to end and weigh it up thoroughly from all aspects." (Random Member)

Q: Oh no! Will chosing a wrong option here have our entire nation collapse or bite us in the ass later on?
A: Unless you go fully against communist ideals, this vote will be mostly in how radical you are in your new school system.
Edit: To be more clear, you can fully disregard the options I gave you, and make your own thing, I just wrote them out to give some ideas for those that want to make their own path.
