Period China would require a game all of its own anyway. They were still busy playing Warring States with chariots and whatnot in the fertile, densely populated eastern parts of the land. The eastern bits were and are arid semi-desert at the time mostly populated by hardy nomads - the province of Xiyu in the far east of the EB1 map, the westernmost part of the Tarim Basin, is fairly illustrative as to what better part of western China and the Tibetan plateau look like.

Plus the whole area is fookin huge. You'd need to around double the size of the map to fit it in, and since the number of provinces is limited...

India conversely has around as much sheer landmass as the whole European subcontinent, and no less regional geographic variation. It was also rather geographically isolated from the rest of Eurasia for the most part - there's the Himalayas, a fair bit of rainforest and the rugged Tibetan highlands separating it from China, for example.

I'd recommend looking at an atlas first before flying off the handle with such grandiose visions in the future.

No.

1) 199 provinces limit
2) China was infighting at that time
3) No African factions. That has been said, which has to do with the 7 cultures limit.
