The majority population living on the island of Taiwan. They are not only culturally different from the Han Chinese, but genetically different as well.
When the Mainland Chinese sailors, bandits, and businessmen came to the island of Taiwan 500-600 years ago, they were for the most part exclusively male.
The ones that remained on the island married the local women with genetic stock closer to the pacific islanders than the Han Chinese.
As a result, the Chinese genetic lineage began to weaken as the mixed children of these relationships had more children. The reason that Taiwanese have Chinese last names is due to the Patriarchy and Racism of Chinese colonialism. Genetically speaking, however,Taiwanese and Chinese are significantly different.

Get the Taiga mug.Taiwan, a democratic nation, unlike China. Look for definitions in words like China, Mao, Mao ZeDong, comrade and you shall see posts made by this brainwashed fool called Comrade Communist Savior, who obviously had his/her brain messed up by China's propaganda just like many people in China. For people in favor of People's Republic of China, read some history, as I had briefly, and you will realize that the Republic of China R.O.C. was established well before the P.R.C. which may actually claim that Taiwan was the real China and that "terrorists" or so-called communists, lead by Mao ZeDong, took over the "real China" using military force. So, if you think about it, China is still run by the "terrorists" and Taiwan may actually be in fact the "real" China.
Also, as others have already said, Taiwan is a fully sovereign country complete with its own democractically elected goverment, its own fully indpendant military, its own currency (New Taiwan Dollar or NT$), its own internet code (.tw) and its own phone code (02). It may not be formally recognized by most goverments, but the fact is, it is not a part of China.

I became interested in Taiwan and China relations after seeing and reading about them in the news.
From my personal opinion, I believe Taiwan shouldn't be part of China.
From previous readings in Urbandictonary.com, I have found this particular quote I liked, "The Chinese government should fix the starvation, illiteracy percentage, unequal property distribution, AIDS carriers, black government operations, human rights violations and communistic society first, then maybe Taiwan would consider an union." - MADE IN TAIWAN
