    The official name of Taiwan’s government is Republic of China, and it’s the continuation of the government that controlled all of China before Mao’s uprising.

    So I’m not sure your argument makes sense. They claim to be the legitimate Chinese government in their own name.

      They claim to be independent, the name is something given to them by (you guessed it) China.

        They actually don’t.

        Edit: People downvoting this have absolutely no clue at all about Taiwanese politics and don’t even bother googling “Taiwan independence”. If they did, they’d knew that Taiwan never formally declared independence.
