Taipei (Keelung), China |

Land |
The constitutional government on Taiwan
was established in 1947, just two years before General Chiang Kai-shek's
government was forced to leave mainland China as a result of the communist
takeover in 1949 under Mao Zedong. Since 1996, Taiwan has had a directly
elected president.
Mainland China considers Taiwan to be a province of China, and the United States so recognized that fact in the Shanghai Agreement that President Nixon executed on his first visit to China. Most residents on Taiwan were either born in China or are descended from ancestors who were. |
