I've just never understood why the PRC has such a problem with independent Taiwan, as in the state being called "Taiwan" without "China" written anywhere in the laws or the constitution or the declaration of independence or whatever. If they have a hard-on for "One China", then let them have exactly that? I just find it ridicolous that we have this developed, populated and rich first world state that nobody recognizes officially.

Arglebargle III posted:The RoC relinquishing those claims though would be an admission that is the government of an independent Taiwan. We all know this has been the reality for 60 years, but admitting it would upset the fragile balance of both the RoC and PRC agreeing that Taiwan is part of China. If the PRC perceives an "independence" movement in Taiwan that actually has political traction they might act. Since the status quo is working okay it's easier for everyone to just pretend. Both sides are culturally Chinese, and the Chinese have a talent for pretending everything is fine. This whole thing might seriously be the most bizarre international situation in the world.
