A border dispute would happen on the Chinese-Tajik border... That's actually plausible.

What would the MEC be doing in Tajikistan? It's not part of the Middle East and they don't speak Arabic there.

Well, the desert of Kashan is included and that's in Iran, so there's no reason the MEC wouldn't walk all over the smaller republics, using them as buffer zones, etc.

It would be semi realistic. China does claim that the Ugihur (sp is wrong) seperatists have links to Al Qaida. There is a significant part of the population that adheres to Islam there too.

I do not think that either side would really spend resources on such a scenario. A conflict between the two sides would be rather implausable as neither side would gain signifacant advantages by winning such a war.

If this is true, how did the Brits get into Eastern Europe (Mestia, Fool's Road) without provoking the Russian Army?
