Alright! Looks like my country will be getting rain every day, all-year round
Two last questions: would it be any colder towards the northernmost part of 52? What would this entail? And, as for tropical storms and gales, would the sea between Wu Qiong and 52 be heaving in them?

(I'm starting to wonder how Tilt is going to deal with his Kenyan Vikings... )

No, if anything it will be hotter. There is a permanent high pressure zone so that the perturbations don't come through. Actually the maximum temperatures will be higher in the north than in the South. If there was not the mitigating presence of the vast northern ocean, this zone would be desertic. As it is, the north easterlies will cool down the coast a bit but farther inland it will be very hot in the day and quite cold in the night (because the skies are clear most of the time so that the accumulated heat radiates away pretty fast).

The eastern "sea" is more of a bay or inland sea (like the Black sea). As it is in low latitudes it will be quite calm with trade winds blowing from the NE.
Around the equator there will be the typical equatorial behaviour - daily thunderstorms during the overcast afternoons and short but strong precipitations. Not enough water to develop gales and violent storms.
