A democratic island country which is not recognized by the western powers solely because they want to maintain a economic relationship with People's Republic of China.
It had been under the colonization of different nations: The Dutch, the Japanese, and then the Chinese Nationalist who fled to Taiwan after losing the civil war against the Chinese Communists. After decades, the Nationalists and the Taiwanese eventually became one, just when the Communists start to claim that Taiwan is part of China.
*Some reasons why don't the Taiwanese people want to be a part of China:
Corrupt government controlled by a single party.
Controlled media.
Mass genocide. (Tibet and Uyghur)
No right for their people (they can't even vote)
They have hunderds of missles ready to launch to Taiwan.
They've locked the economy of Taiwan and plan to press it further.
The Taiwanese people don't pay taxes to the Chinese government.

Most of the world have turned their back against us because of self interest. Where is justice? Where is human rights? Why should we, who had been enslaved again and again and finally regained independence, be robbed of our land once more?
Like the Tibetans and the Urghur people, We need to be freed from Chinese opression once and for all. I hope you've all seen Brave Heart. What we need is FREEDOM.
We are born to the island of Taiwan, and it is our home.
We were raised here, from infants to adults.
On this little piece of land we find our love, just like you.
We will grow old, and we will die here.
We are the Taiwanese.

Get the Taiwan mug.Taiya is a kind hearted beautiful girl. She is always there for you when you need her and always gives the best advice. She has an amazing body and always has confidence. People often think of her of being popluar and perfect but inside she is the wierdest person ever. She is an introvert and often has tough times finding someone to love, but once you get her don’t let her go.
random guy: “hey, how’re you wanna hang later”
taiya: “hey, for sure you want to talk about anything in particular?”

Get the tairan mug.taiwan is not part of the PRC china
PRC is china
Taiwan is taiwan
ROC is a false name applied to Taiwan by the KMTs still dreaming to take back China (KMT only says the work Taiwanese or Taiwan when it comes to election)
Chinese Taipei proves that Taiwan is not a part of China but rather unreconized internationally (or else you would have stuff like Canadian Quebec, American Virgin Islands XD)

Get the taiwan mug.An independent land mass off the coast of South-Eastern China whose status remains undetermined. While I wish I could call it a sovereign nation, the TAIWANESE people have not decided their own fate in a referendum in which no mainlander should be allowed to vote.
