China v Taiwan: explained
Taiwan’s sovereignty has been a disputed issue for centuries. Though the island sees itself as independent, China insists it is part of the People’s Republic and has not ruled out taking Taiwan by force. That could ignite an all-out war between American and China.

Inside Taiwan’s Strategy to Counter a Chinese Invasion | WSJ
For decades, Taiwan has looked to its east coast as a safe haven to survive a Chinese invasion until allies, particularly the U.S., can arrive to assist. In the east, Taiwan’s rugged mountain terrain also helps create a natural shield in the event of an attack. But China’s PLA activity on the island’s east has thrown that strategy into question.
WSJ takes a look at how serious China’s threats to Taiwan’s east coast are and explores whether the island needs to change its defense strategy.
0:00 Taiwan’s current strategy
1:38 The problem
4:15 Taiwan’s reliance on allies

In 1950, Taiwan, post-colonial and war-ravaged, grappled with an economic downturn, amplified by the challenges of integrating 2 million refugees. Its GDP per capita then rivaled some of the world's poorest countries like Haiti and Madagascar. With looming threats from China and impending militaristic ambitions, Taiwan's future seemed uncertain. But fast-forward to today, and Taiwan is an economic marvel. With a median wealth surpassing most of Asia—including powerhouses like South Korea—and even rivaling Germany and the U.S., it's a beacon of prosperity...

HOW Taiwan Became secretly Rich after After The World War II
In 1949, Taiwan experienced an unprecedented population surge, witnessing a remarkable 25% increase in total population within three years, welcoming over 2 million people. What made this surge distinctive was the inclusion of 600,000 soldiers. Surprisingly, it was not the result of an invasion but rather the retreat of the Republic of China's government and its remaining soldiers from a war they had just lost.

In 1950, Taiwan, post-colonial and war-ravaged, grappled with an economic downturn, amplified by the challenges of integrating 2 million refugees. Its GDP per capita then rivaled some of the world's poorest countries like Haiti and Madagascar. With looming threats from China and impending militaristic ambitions, Taiwan's future seemed uncertain. But fast-forward to today, and Taiwan is an economic marvel. With a median wealth surpassing most of Asia—including powerhouses like South Korea—and even rivaling Germany and the U.S., it's a beacon of prosperity. Taiwanese citizens rank among the world's most educated, their democratic governance is robust, and their high-tech industries play pivotal roles in global supply chains. Foxconn, Taiwan's tech giant, produces a speculated 40% of global consumer electronics, and up until recently, manufactured a staggering 80% of iPhones. Moreover, the country maintains a near monopoly on the manufacturing of semiconductors, a crucial component that powers everything in the modern world, from guided missiles, to modern cars and even the device you are using to read this description. From a colony of a militaristic empire to a thriving democracy, and from a backwards agrarian society, to technological Superpower, this is the remarkable story of Taiwan.

In 1949, Taiwan experienced an unprecedented population surge, witnessing a remarkable 25% increase in total population within three years, welcoming over 2 million people. What made this surge distinctive was the inclusion of 600,000 soldiers.
