I think, before any chip maker in Taiwan is taken by chinese forces, their factories and laboritories might explode for some reason or another. I don’t think that China can take them without catastrophic loss of very expensive and sensitive equipment that requires very specialised workers they don’t have. All of these things can’t be replaced in a reasonable time frame, especially at war.

If China follows through with an invasion, they might be after something else.

Top right seems to be the best.

The others:

• Top left: Mystery tongue coming from or going somewhere
• Middle left: Much to bright, hard edges make finding icons difficult
• Middle right: Too many dark areas
• Bottom left: Might be okay as well
• Bottom right: Too bright and might not fit the mood as this seems to be an anime inspired background
