The Nakagawa Plan (Senrian: 나까가와께까꾸 in Kokumon, 中川計画 in Gyoumon, Nakagawa keikaku ; Xiaodongese: tbd, tbd) was a plan for the post-Great War occupation and partition of Xiaodong by the Grand Alliance powers, primarily Senria, proposed by Senrian admiral and Minister of Rites Itigo Nakagawa in 1932. The plan called for the annexation of several Xiaodongese territories to Senria, Phula, and Tinza, the partition of Xiaodong into eleven nations (two of which could potentially be annexed into Senria following planned Senrianization programs), and the near-total deconstruction of both Xiaodong's industrial capacity and national identity, with the endgoal of permanently destroying Xiaodong's ability to threaten Senria or the balance of power in Coius.
The Nakagawa Plan was one of several plans considered by Senrian leadership for how to deal with Xiaodong after the war, with other plans notably proposed by Isao Isiyama and Kasayosi Takamatu. All of these plans called for some partition of Xiaodong into two or more states, but varied in the number of states it was to be partitioned into and in if, where, and how Senrianization ought to occur; Senrian leader Katurou Imahara ultimately selected the Nakagawa plan as a middle route between Isiyama's plan, which he considered too lenient, and Takamatu's plan, which he regarded as potentially impractical. Imahara's Euclean allies were vehemently opposed to the plan, which they regarded as too extreme; concerns were also raised about the plan potentially inspiring intensified Xiaodongese resistance, which would prolong the war, and the potential geopolitical consequences of giving Senria blatant hegemony over South Coius.
A copy of the plan was captured by Gaullican intelligence operatives in August 1934, who leaked it to the Xiaodongese government and to the press. While the reception in Senria was largely positive, the public reaction to the plan was largely negative in both Allied and Entente nations in Euclea. Xiaodongese propaganda also seized heavily on the plan, using it to galvanize Xiaodongese opposition to the ongoing Senrian invasion of Xiaodong; several militia divisions were successfully raised in the wake of the plan's leaking, contributing to the eventual stagnation of the Xiaodongese front.
While Senria attempted to begin implementing some provisions of the Nakagawa Plan between 1933 and 1935 - most notably in its occupation of Jindao - Euclean opposition ultimately prevented the plan's large-scale implementation. Estmere, Werania, Narozalica, and Etruria ultimately pressured Senria into making a negotiated, rather than imposed, peace with Xiaodong and were involved to varying degrees in the drafting of the Treaty of Keisi, which formally ended the war between Senria and Xiaodong. While some of the provisions common to the Nakagawa, Isiyama, and Takamatu plans - such as the independence of Tusing, Duljun, and Darma, and the transfer of surviving Xiaodongese financial and military assets to Senria - were present in the Treaty of Keisi, it was largely viewed as a repudiation of the Nakagawa Plan, as it preserved the existence of a single Xiaodongese state and limited Senrian influence over the area. Nonetheless, Euclean powers continued to fear that Senria would attempt to impose the Nakagawa Plan; this, alongside the buildup to the Solarian War, contributed to Euclean nations allowing Xiaodong to unilaterally repudiate many of the Treaty of Keisi's provisions.
In spite of the plan's failure, it remains widely popular in Senria; a 2017 poll found that nearly two thirds of Senrians polled held a positive view of the plan, and that roughly half believed the plan would have worked if not for Euclean interference. The plan is viewed particularly positively in nationalist and ultranationalist circles, including by some figures in the Aikokutou and Reimeisa political parties. Conversely it has continually been invoked by Xiaodongese politicians as proof of a continual Senrian conspiracy against Xiaodong and that normalising ties with Senria will lead to Xiaodong to eventually become a "Nakagawa state".
