Gone Fishin'
So let's set the scene.
It's 20XX, and World War III has come to an end. The authoritarian People's Republic of China has been brought down, and the Tibetan people find themselves the leaders of an independent country for the first time in over 75 years. Now then - it is time to determine what territories will be assigned to the new country.
This survey is simple to complete - using the map below:
...colour the territories that you think should be assigned to the new Tibetan state. There is a colour key at the bottom left to help you - the colours denote decreasing priority levels to assign territories to the Tibetan state. The colours are, from top to bottom:
Purple - Tibetan Core: A Tibetan state without these territories does not deserve to call itself "Tibet".
Blue - Major Priority: The Tibetan government should do everything in its power to secure control over these territories - may it be for ethnic, economic or defensive purposes.
Green - Semi-Major Priority: If the Tibetan government secures all of the "major priority" areas, it may attempt to pursue these areas - but it can survive without them.
Yellow - Use Caution: The Tibetan government should not actively pursue these territories, but Lhasa may take them if they are offered.
Red - KEEP OUT!: The detriments of administering these territories outweigh the benefits. KEEP OUT!
You can also use the colours with the boxes above to assign priority to other goals such as membership in international organisations.
I'll begin with my personal answer to the border survey:
