Taiwan (
i/ˌtaɪˈwɑːn/; Chinese: 臺灣 or 台灣; see below), officially the Republic of China (ROC; Chinese: 中華民國; pinyin: Zhōnghuá Mínguó), is a sovereign state in East Asia. The Republic of China, originally based in mainland China, now governs the island of Taiwan, which constitutes more than 99% of its territory, as well as Penghu, Kinmen, Matsu, and other minor islands, following its loss of the mainland China territory in 1949 in the Chinese Civil War. This remaining area is also constitutionally called the "Free area of the Republic of China" which is not ruled by the Communist Party of China in Beijing.
Neighboring states include the People's Republic of China (PRC) to the west (mainland China), Japan to the east and northeast, and the Philippines to the south. Taiwan is one of the most densely populated countries in the world with a population density of 649 people per km2 in October 2015.Taipei is the seat of the central government, and together with the surrounding cities of New Taipei and Keelung forms the largest metropolitan area on the island.

Taiwan Province
Taiwan Province (Chinese: 臺灣省 or 台灣省; pinyin: Táiwān Shěng; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Tâi-oân Séng) is one of the two administrative divisions of the Republic of China (ROC) that are officially referred to as "provinces". The province covers approximately 69% of the actual-controlled territory of the ROC, with around 31% of the total population.
Geographically it covers the majority of the island of Taiwan as well as almost all of its surrounding islands, the largest of which are the Penghu archipelago, Green Island, Xiaoliuqiu Island and Orchid Island. Taiwan Province does not cover territories of the special municipalities of Kaohsiung, New Taipei, Taichung, Tainan, Taipei, and Taoyuan, all of which are located geographically within the main island of Taiwan. It also does not include the counties of Kinmen and Lienchiang, which are located alongside the southeast coast of mainland China and administered as a separate Fujian Province (not to be confused with the PRC's Fujian Province).

Geography of Taiwan
Taiwan (historically called Formosa, from Portuguese: Ilha Formosa, "Beautiful Island", Portuguese pronunciation: [ˌiʎɐ fuɾˈmɔzɐ]) is an island in East Asia; it is located some 180 kilometres (112 miles) off the southeastern coast of mainland China across the Taiwan Strait. It has an area of 35,883 km2 (13,855 sq mi) and spans the Tropic of Cancer. The East China Sea lies to the north, the Philippine Sea to the east, the Luzon Strait directly to the south and the South China Sea to the southwest. Taiwan proper makes up 99% of the territory of the Free Area of Republic of China, after the ROC lost its mainland China territory in the Chinese Civil War and fled to the island in 1949, and the country itself is commonly referred to as simply "Taiwan".
Taiwan is a tilted fault block, characterized by the contrast between the eastern two-thirds, consisting mostly of five rugged mountain ranges parallel to the east coast, and the flat to gently rolling plains of the western third, where most of Taiwan's population reside. There are several peaks over 3,500 m, the highest being Yu Shan at 3,952 metres (12,966 ft), making Taiwan the world's fourth-highest island. The tectonic boundary that formed these ranges is still active, and the island experiences many earthquakes, a few of them highly destructive. There are also many active submarine volcanoes in the Taiwan Straits.

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.

Taiwan’s Chips Could Be Preventing War With China
As China’s threats to Taiwan escalate, the global economy is increasingly at risk of a catastrophic disruption to the supply of microchips -- which are responsible for shaping our modern world.

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 News Explainers Some days the high-speed news cycle can bring more questions than answers.

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.

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.

As China’s threats to Taiwan escalate, the global economy is increasingly at risk of a catastrophic disruption to the supply of microchips -- which are responsible for shaping our modern world. In response, the U.S. is racing to up its manufacturing capacity, pouring billions of dollars into the domestic microchip industry.

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.

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.

Amidst military drills and heated exchanges, tensions between Beijing and Taipei are at an all-time high. The big question on everyone's mind is will China invade Taiwan and if that happens, can a self-governing island which china considers a renegade province defend itself well in terms of military?

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.

As China’s threats to Taiwan escalate, the global economy is increasingly at risk of a catastrophic disruption to the supply of microchips -- which are responsible for shaping our modern world. In response, the U.S. is racing to up its manufacturing capacity, pouring billions of dollars into the domestic microchip industry.
VICE News' Isobel Yeung steps into the technological race between the world’s two superpowers to see how semiconductors are changing geopolitics and every part of how we live.

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.

Taiwan (i/ˌtaɪˈwɑːn/; Chinese: 臺灣 or 台灣; see below), officially the Republic of China (ROC; Chinese: 中華民國; pinyin: Zhōnghuá Mínguó), is a sovereign state in East Asia. The Republic of China, originally based in mainland China, now governs the island of Taiwan, which constitutes more than 99% of its territory, as well as Penghu, Kinmen, Matsu, and other minor islands, following its loss of the mainland China territory in 1949 in the Chinese Civil War. This remaining area is also constitutionally called the "Free area of the Republic of China" which is not ruled by the Communist Party of China in Beijing.
Neighboring states include the People's Republic of China (PRC) to the west (mainland China), Japan to the east and northeast, and the Philippines to the south. Taiwan is one of the most densely populated countries in the world with a population density of 649 people per km2 in October 2015.Taipei is the seat of the central government, and together with the surrounding cities of New Taipei and Keelung forms the largest metropolitan area on the island.
