I don't quite think China is Vale. Atlas and Vale seem to have influence similar to that of the US or GB in terms of world politics. While China is sure to meet if not exceed the US in the world economy, currently GB and the US hold more influence in world politics.

Mistral is most likely the equivalent of China, because ABRN, the first team we meet from Mistral (besides Cinder's) uses a rope dart and a bo staff specifically. I believe that the fact that Ren's village is in Mistral shows this perfectly, as most of the people there appear to also be ethnically asian.
