I planned to make a rump China write-up on Etranger years ago, but RL issues forced me to postpone my plans.
Here's my plan.
The People's Republic of China is the weakest, the poorest, and the least technologically advanced of the three Chinese states, but like the Manchu Empire and the Republic of China/Canton [well, many people treat that as fanon, right?, but it's up to people to decide ] , they also wanted to be treated as equals. It is just those 'traitor' states who bordered them are trying to keep China down. At least until at end of the 23rd century.
These days, China had some secret backing of the United States, and more overt backing of Australia. It is also trying to make contacts with the Inca Republic, whom it find some [but not all] commonality in politics. And China had already arranged to build exclaves in the Australo-American arm with both countries, and China had stated that if New Zealand or Korea decide not to colonize Avalon, China will apply in their place. So far, little if at all progress is made. To do that, China in the 2300s decided to build a small space navy to protect their interests, however small, in space, and to prevent unwarranted Manchurian and Cantonese interference.
China's mission is to establish itself as a nation to be respected. Although it never gave up its claim to rule in all China [as Manchuria and Canton do], it wanted both of these states to respect them. This is one reason why the Manchus and Cantonese fought their war on Syulham rather than Earth; they are both unwilling to fight a state that sworn to avenge its dissection, and while their equipment is second or third rate at best, are fully armed to the teeth and as determined as their opponents.
Any questions and violent reactions?
