Why taiwan is not a independent country

[syed putra]

It can only be regarded as a independent country if orang asli runs it.

But by definition


An independent country, or sovereign state, is a self-governing political entity with defined territory, a permanent population, and its own government, free from external control, with the power to make its own laws, manage its economy, and conduct foreign relations.

Taiwan still Claims mainland china so its territory is not defined. Unless orang asli takes over and drop the claim.

Taiwan still Claims mainland china so its territory is not defined. Unless orang asli takes over and drop the claim.

Here are six concrete reasons Taiwan functions as an independent country, regardless of disputed sovereignty claims:

1. Effective self-rule - Taiwan has its own government that exercises full control over its territory and population, with no PRC involvement.
2. Separate constitution and legal system - Taiwan operates under the Republic of China Constitution, with independent courts, laws, and enforcement.
3. Democratic legitimacy - Taiwan holds free, competitive elections and peaceful transfers of power, unlike the PRC system.
4. Independent military - Taiwan maintains its own armed forces and defense policy, not subordinate to Beijing.
5. Distinct economy and currency - Taiwan issues its own currency, sets fiscal policy, and trades globally as a separate customs and economic entity.
6. Independent international operations - Taiwan issues passports, controls immigration, and enters agreements under its own authorities, even when excluded from formal recognition.

Bottom line: by international law criteria of statehood, Taiwan clearly qualifies in practice.
