        Anyone who still thinks China is joking about this “Taiwan Province” thing needs to read up on the civil war of 1949. The renegades who fled to Taiwan escaped the Communists but what was the territorial status of the island then?

        You're all running around saying Russia this and Russia that... China is your biggest threat. They have been for a long time. Taiwan will be the catalyst in an explosion you've sat by and watched build for over a decade.

        It will take a long time for us to become a superpower, and we will not be as provocative as north Korea. Within Taiwan, there are many differences, mostly of they are oppose immediate independence. The odds of a war are very low. Take it easy.
